INTRODUCING INFINITE COLOUR! Infinite Colour is our brand new WATER BASED paint range, designed specifically for miniature and figure painters and can also be used on scale models.

So in a previous life, I used to run Group Builds on a Facebook Group where each Group Build featured a 'Challenge' to help encourage people to build more models and try new things.  I've been planning on introducing these Challenge Builds into our Facebook Community, again as a way to encourage modellers to try new things but most importantly, to have fun doing it.  So, kicking things off, our first SMS Challenge Build is 'The Big Bushmaster Build Off'!  Rules are simple, you can only use the new 1/72 Australian Bushmaster kit by Dragon Models and then you can...
