I mean, I do appreciate that Canada is about 20 times bigger than the entire UK, so it might involve a bit more travelling, but I bet you'd find a few takers willing to make the trip  ;) ...
Well it’s more like 40 times the size of UK but who count?  ;)

Come on, Dany - you clearly need to organise a CLAM! ...
Somehow I find that CLAM sound less glamorous than BLAM… lol
A CANADIAN local hobby store with a small selection of historical wargames miniatures (mainly from Warlords). They also have a great selection of paint and hobby accessories from Vallejo, Army painter, AK Interactive, Green Stuff World and more.; https://tistaminis.com/

shoe polish?
interesting technique
guess it would clog the airbrush

but for being in hell You are quite perseverent  ;)
I draw my hat to this scenery - are these bought elements or did You make them Yourself?

I doubt the shoe polish mix would be particularly good for my airbrush, no :)
The shoe polish mix is a bit thicker and heavier than ink's or washes etc. So when I use the sponge it gets pushed into the gaps or wiped off. If it was an ink, the sponge would soak it up out of the cracks and you'd lose most of the shading.

The walls and floors are plaster casts I made. The masters for them were made from Hirst Arts blocks which I then made molds of. I then spent about three weeks before the event casting 2304 floor tiles and 40+ walls and two nights painting :)
So many projects..... so little time.......

Thanks for the complements about the photos - I know there aren't many of the people, but only cause the miniatures were more photogenic lol

As I've had a couple of PMs asking if the photos can be borrowed for other peoples websites I'd just like to let everyone know they are welcome to help themselves, but thanks to the people for asking first.

And Driscoles and Grimm, assuming I make it to GLAM I'll make sure I bring the camera with me so I can take more photos of you as you make such a great couple ;)

I wonder what a psychologist would interpret out of this picture by the gestures ?

Actually I am considering it. I'd make new ones to sell though. The majority of the set used at BLAM ended up being made out of an inferior plaster and is a bit too soft.
