Doctor Ben's Scale Consortium
Welcome to the Doctor Ben'son-line store website. Now on the web since
1996, here your will find original, quality
weathering and scratch building products that are
contest proven to enable you to build a model as bad
as we do.
No I do
not have a model train story to tell where I first
got interested in building models. In fact, I use to
get a kick out of telling a room of model
railroaders that model railroading is an evil
necessity to my hobby—building dioramas!
That
was a long time ago when I use to conduct clinics on
how folks could make these products for themselves.
Funny thing, I don't think folks paid attention
because here I am making a living by selling
products that I tried to teach them to make
themselves!
Nope, I started out in this hobby in the mid-1970s
building Fine Scale Miniature kits in trade for
unassembled kits. I had this crazy notion that I
wanted the entire
FSM kit collection.
Our
Sincerest Thank You and Appreciation for Your
Continued Patronage!
Two ex-wives and several collections later I gave up
that notion of having a complete
FSM set especially
if I kept losing the collection in a divorce and so
I just build them; and sell a few too. But that is
in the
FineScaleMiniatures Biz
section
of this website. You are here because you want to
build these kits as quickly and as bad as I do,
right?
Well,
what started out as
SMMB&S
and a
handful of products has turned into over one hundred
products and continues to grow.
The way I figure it is that if I make something and
I'm not proud enough to put my name to it, I'm not
going to be that enthusiastic to sell it to you. And
if the price isn't reasonable, you are not going to
buy it, so I would just be wasting your time and my
money producing the product.
So, plan
to spend some time browsing through the complex
pages of this
section. I am working to make this much simpler and
easier to find things. It just takes time working on
this website and when I am working on the website, I
can't be making product. So hang in there and if you
have a question,
Just Askkk!
Modeling materials have come a long way since the good ol’ days of modeling with cereal boxes and erector sets. Now-a-days many modeling products are made of white metal, resin, or plaster. If all the modeling components were made of the same material, figuring a way to color or stain them would be a snap. Well, they’re not! Most of the better kits have castings made of differing materials in the same box. And it seems like each one has to be colored and stained completely different. Fortunately for you, this “How-To #2” booklet carefully walks you through the process of understanding the hows and whys of what you need to do to use the same products to color and stain practically any material.This How-To booklet is included *FREE* in the Doctor Ben's Weathering Stain Sets #1 & #2 AND in each Thomas A. Yorke "Practice Wall HO/O scales.
Modeling with pigments for most people is a mystery. This is partly due to the fact that many folks confuse pigments with powders and chalks and mistakenly think that these powders and chalks will produce the same results as using industrial pigments. Additionally, not all pigments are created equal. For instance, there are tempra pigments made for finger painting that are nowhere nearly as concentrated as Industrial Weathering Pigments. And only Industrial Weathering Pigments are color-fast with polymer-binder adhesives that enable them to adher to practically any surface. This booklet simplifies this mysterious substance and its applications. This How-To booklet #3 is included *FREE* with any of the SIX the Doctor Ben's Weathering Pigment Sets.
