(...) I dug out a flat hobby file from the set I use for taking the flashing off of table top figurines to get rid of that tab, myself. It took some time and requires a bit of attention to prevent going too far or accidentally filing the 'front' (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I found using files on flashing was slower than that #11 blade - use it enough and you develop a good touch. I know the popular thing is to refer to the dragon helmet as "Roman" (oddly, the Roman Gallic style is what comes to mind, but they (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.castle)

I wouldn't say its a "great" set, but for a small set, it has a lot of great pieces, and I think the main model is kind of neat too. Given that you can pick it up for (...)
