Clear all

[Closed] Those little figures show up pretty often, and I've been attaching (and re-attaching) bases. (pic)

Great idea to use clear bases!

I think they add a little to each display and think the clear base is a great idea too. The biggest benefit is that you get a lot of practice painting all of those little fellers. Now I wish I had kept all of mine. Without people, it makes my collection look like a ghost town.

David, your figurines certainly do add to your displays. To keep mine from falling, I use

A tiny dab of museum wax on their feet. It is clear, non-toxic and sticks well, keeping the little folks upright. However, it doesn't help me paint them. I am afraid there is no help there!
