Why Did Figures in Model Kits Disappear?


Recommended Posts

A few years ago I tried making a small diorama with a few resin figures on it. I used figures that didn't come with the molded on bases to stand them up. I drilled small holes in the bottom of one foot or shoe and glued in a piece of a straight pin. Then drilled a hole into the base of the diorama where I wanted the figure to be, and inserted the pin sticking out of the foot or shoe so they would stand. That kind of made it look a bit more "real" without a base to hold them up.

I love figures. All of mine are from Japanese kits or figure packs. I suck at sculpting to much to modify them. I've windowshopped G scale figures, but I can't afford any at this time.

Need better picutes of my drivers, but these are presentable.
