Thank you much! I need to place some orders through your store too. I've seen a few things I would like to get when I get around to it.

After reading a bit in this forum, I recently ordered and received a set of EQ and BQ miniatures from billdask.
I am very happy with the items and can recommend his recasts.

Thanx again, bill!

Hello everyone,

I just got my dungeon doors from Zealot Miniatures (Thantos), and I just came here to say that I'm very very very happy with them. The design is perfect, great plastic, and now I'm looking forward to paint them! (I'll post some pics when I get them done).
This was the most wanted item I was looking for to upgrade my heroquest. yey!

Thank you, I'll will surely get more stuff from you.

P.S. Really appreciated the little dwarf gift ;)

Wear a mask when you sand resin. Always. It can get into your lungs and wreak havoc on your everything. It also makes your boogers larger and tackier. You will have to remove them manually and they WILL take your nose-hairs with them. Breathing plastic is very bad.

I scraped the doors down with a blade instead of using sandpaper. That should have been okay hey?

Don't recall if I mentioned it in the other thread by my players were impressed with the doors.

Sounds great Auto :D Good luck with painting them and look forward to seeing the whole set.

Wrote something on the site for working with resin http://www.zealotminiatures.co.uk/worki ... -resin.php
It doesent mention boogers though ... >.> :P

Yea redav, using a knife is probably better than sanding.
