Warlord Games' new Resin Plus
« on: February 13, 2023, 11:37:17 AM »
Looks like there's yet another new resin to add to the mix.

If it lives up to its press release, it may not be too bad. I thought they'd settled on SIOCast, but apparently not ???

What is Warlord Resin Plus™?

Warlord Resin Plus™ is a brand new variation on the existing Warlord Resin™ which brings a significant number of advantages over traditional metal figures.

Feels like hard plastic – but better! Less flexible than its predecessor, Warlord Resin Plus™ retains the feel of hard plastic, but has a level of springiness that leads to excellent durability.

Easy to work with – Warlord Resin Plus™ can be filed, clipped, scraped, and cut just as easily as metal, and requires only a simple dab of superglue for assembly.

Lighter than metal – No more sore arms and bad backs from enormously heavy figure cases!

Enhanced surface quality – Fine details are crisper than ever before, and paint adheres far better than on metal figures.

Thanks. I'm clearly getting too old to keep up with this stuff :-[

Yeah, it's...weird that so many companies using Siocast (which does have a couple different formulas) insist on using their own names and pretending they invented the process.

That might be because siocast is actually a bit naff and they want to distance themselves from the name? I find it to be a pretty awful material to work with, not far off of mantics old awful restic.

See washes, dips, glazes, etc, etc, etc. Rinse and repeat. Still, to be fair,  I am really quite enjoying my Warlord Games cornflakes and wonder bread.

By the by does anyone remember 'Warglue'?  lol
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo
