crisis haul!

Crisis was worth it for me too, although I mostly got books (some pretty rare stuff at very reasonable prices) and paints.
The only 10mm stuff I found that is useful for my current project (late 19th Century Raj), came from MM. Still, a very nice day at an event that could have done with a Pendraken stand, although I do understand that there is probably no profit in it. Mind you, that didn't stop minority interests like 6mm Baccus and Adler from coming...

The small scales were underrepresented once more. The plus side is that most do away with 10mm scenery quite cheap. What was a surprise to me is the amount of 1/72 stuff on sale. Is it making a comeback?

One of the benefits of the EU - no bloody customs at the land borders - see the current cock-up (b*****cks we never thought of that!) re. the Irish Republic/Northern Ireland border. As previously stated, be careful what you wish for.

No difference anyway for me. I don't cross a border when driving to crisis.

I live in the Southern part of the Netherlands so Antwerp is not that bad to travel to. Then again; the fact that there is so little available in the small scales keeps me from visiting Crisis; it's just not worth it to me (I admit; the temptation and total lack of backbone once in is also part of it...). Better save my money and order some more 10mm Pendraken stuff through the internet!

Cheers,
Rob

Interesting observation Peter.  I wonder if its the 28mm that is stimulating the 1/72 stuff - nearest cheapest plastic scale - just was we use 1/144 for plastic aircraft?

20mm is coming home. 15mm is dead ... it just doesn't know it yet.

Can't tell. They are easier to paint now we have acrylics though! Not a lot of chipping as opposed to oil paints.
