and attend it at least once. Site has latest info on the next show
and results of previous ones. |

HMSNEO sponsors the annual Tulsa Show. I
haven't had the pleasure of going yet, but it is one I'd like to get to.
Very nice web site. |

| Medieval, Roman Forum - New
Zealand
http://forums.delphiforums.com/medrenfig
|
One of my favorite sites.
Delphi Forums has several figure/military history related forums (forae?)
with LOTS of info, tips, reviews and chat. MedRom (or MedRen) concentrates
on medieval and Roman periods including medieval Japan. I check in
here several times a week. |
| TnT Figure Forum
http://www.tnthome.ws/
|
Another one of the Delphi groups,
this one covers all periods and nations. Again, lots of good interaction. |
| Planet Figure
http://www.planetfigure.com/
|
This is a very interesting site.
It contains several how-to articles as well as reviews and chats. I
believe it's fairly new, but it looks very good already. |
| Le Bivouac - French Club
http://www.lebivouac.com/
|
A French Club with some
interesting info on techniques and uniforms. Many of the pages are
in English as well as French. |
| Webarmagedon - Spanish Assoc.
http://www.webarmagedon.org/
|
An all-Spanish site with lots of
good photos (a gallery of Latorre work!). Uses lots of animation so
can be hard to view with a slow connection. |
| Spanish Figure Modeling Site
http://www.lilliputmodel.com/
|
Another Spanish site with some
English pages. Lots of great photos and links to useful info. |

If Red Lancers doesn't have it, you probably
can't get it. Probably the largest figure inventory in the world. |
|
Sentinel

Another large dealer. Good selection but
the site can be slow to view on a dial-up connection. |
