A nearby Painting Service at last!

Looks like the piles of unfinished/unmade toy soldiers in my bodega may have hope of seeing a game table soon. I'm one of those who've managed to buy more than I can paint, and the still the sets keep piling up. Having a painting service nearby ( actually, its in a nearby island) can hopefully help me get these toys ready for gaming and display.

Scratchbuilding Service to some of
you. I am a wargamer, painter, scratch-builder and collector of over 30 years.


After a career of 30 years as a senior NCO in the Belgian Army I retired to the Philippines.
 My plan was to just hang out and do as little as possible here but,  my wife had
other plans for me. :-) Just kidding of course honey!


My favorite has always been the Napoleonic Wars and that’s why we start with Napoleonic's.
As time goes on we will  cover almost every other, popular period in history but
let’s take it one step at the time and do a great job on the Napoleonic's first..

BBI Elite Force M1 Abrams

Just a quickie today, still got a ton of work to finish. It's a BBI Elite Force 1:18 M1 Abrams MBT! A coworker decided to streamline his collection and sold me this tank and two humvees. More pics soon when I get a chance to pose them with my G.I. Joes.  

The Nightmare Before Christmas: Doctor Finkelstein

Doctor Finkelstein is a resident of Halloween Town. He is the mad scientist and the "father" of Sally. He is described as a pale-as-a-sheet mad scientist with a duckbill-like mouth and a hinged skullcap that he can open up to reveal his brain. Doctor Finklestein lives in a large observatory with his living rag doll creation Sally and his hunchbacked assistant Igor. James Whale's Frankenstein is quoted in Finklestein's line "I made you with my own hands" which is ironic as Finklestein's body appears to be largely if not entirely artificial. Unlike Frankenstein who takes no responsibility for his creations and disowns them almost as soon as they are completed (much like the original Dr. Frankenstein), Finklestein takes full responsibility over Sally and acts as an over-protective father and in some ways an overbearing husband (thus explaining Sally's attempts to run away) by keeping her under lock and key under the pretext of shelterin

The Nightmare Before Christmas: Lock, Shock and Barrel

  Lock, Shock, and Barrel are introduced as Oogie Boogie's not-so-loyal "little henchmen." Lock, Shock, and Barrel are not really loyal to Oogie as they are simply making mischief for their own fun and to stay on his good side (in other words: they serve him out of fear) and after his death they just have harmless fun, which they seem to enjoy more; however, this is contrasted by their lack of common sense as, presumably due to their lust for mischief they have shown no protest when their master was revived in the spinoffs, and once out of boredom revived him themselves in "Oogie's Revenge".. They all three are trick-or-treaters, with masks similar to their faces(e.g. Barrel's skeleton mask is large and round to fit his face. And has a huge grin on it and he has a near-permanent creepy smile). Their names are a play on the phrase, "lock, stock, and barrel." Though not totally antagonistic, they are usually the comedy relief. They appea
