Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I only need one figure out of a pack. Will you sell me just the one figure?
Unfortunately we can't sell our figures in this manner. The way the process works is that each bag's contents are contained in 1 mold, so when a figure is cast, it's all the figures in a set and not just the individual figure. As soon as they are ready to come out of the mold, they are placed immediately in packs and sent to either the customer or the retailer. We don't have a bin of left over figures, otherwise we'd be able to help you with the one figure.
Q: I need a weapon (Pike or Spear) for my figures, how do I make them?
Glad you asked. We do sell Weapon Packs that you can purchase. However, there are several methods available for creating your own weapons. A few that we've heard of are:
- take broom bristles and cut them to the desired length. You can then flatten out one end with a hammer or even pliers (to make the point). Use PVA to build up a ferrule for the head. These will look good, they really don't cost anything (especially if you have a broom), and aren't prone to breakage.
- use brass or floral wire (of appropriate thickness). Cut it to the desired length, use a hammer to flatten one end and then file it to a point (not too sharp!!)
- use piano wire or copper wire - though both of these are rather hard to work with and can be quite painful if you accidentally poke yourself with them. Basically the same instructions as for the brass or floral wire.
These instructions were gleaned from several postings on the now defunct newsgroup: news:rec.games.miniatures.historical
