To Buy or Not To Buy...That is the Question

  Now isn’t that an interesting couple of questions to ask one’s self. Yet over the past year we’ve heard from quite a few potential buyers. Then when it becomes clear that the products we offer requires some level of effort to construct, assemble and package; it occurs to some of these folks that this business that they are asking about purchasing is much more than sourcing finished goods and selling them from a two-car garage.
  All that said, our two High School Seniors will continue on for the next year or at least until they graduate HS in June 2022. They are both very excited to learn about the RTV mold making process and creating casting masters. So when you call our business phone 770-666-8100 and we don't answer, it not that we're ignoring the call. We're working in another room away from the phone. So please leave a voice mail and we'll return you call as soon as we are able. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
   We hope that you had a fun and safe *safe* Independence Day Celebration. Lots of orders came in and we're just about caught up. Again, thank you very much for your patience and your business. We're two 67+ year old senior citizens finally able to get out to see our Doctors on a more regular, face-to-face schedule and then scurry home to pack and mail orders as quickly as possible. See you in the Hobby Room and here in Georgia, since the New COVID Strain appears to be rearing its ugly head, please remember to Wash Your Hands and Please wear a mast whenever possible!

Staining & Weathering Tree Stumps using     Doctor Ben's Weathering

 

  The "Tips & Techniques" Blog article is more like “how I do it” than a “How-To-Do-It” and this technique works for all scales—Z to 1:1. And yes, a copy of this "Tips & Techniques" Blog article is included with Scale Model Masterpieces Old Tree Stumps sets purchased 

  Please note that this is a very abbreviated how-to description and that the "whole technique' is found on our website Blog by clicking on any of the images in this Newsletter.

  Doctor Ben’s Industrial Weathering Pigments (IWP) are used to paint and color the tree stumps as well as rock work, scenery stains and washes, weathering and you name it. Just like the Doctor Ben's Weathering Stain which also could be use for this technique, these products are very easy to use (no previous experience necessary) by using any Isopropyl rubbing alcohol (70% works fine) as the wetting agent or to turn the dry pigments

into a highly tinted colored liquid.

  There are numerous browns of the Doctor Ben’s Industrial Weathering Pigments to use for the bark. You can pick one that looks best on your layout or mix them up for a more diverse look. Also, you can apply a wash of Aged Driftwood (gray & faded) Rustic Oak (browns & yellows) and Natural Pine (green & mossy) to the colored stumps when you are done for a more faded, natural look. Continued Here

Doctor Ben’s Scale Consortium
Granite Ballast Grey Weathering Solution #1056-. creates that light, dusty grey that is so difficult to achieve with opaque products. Additionally, this Weathering Solution reveals a 3-D effect for more realism rather than just a flat color wash. The Granite Ballast Grey Weathering Solution is also great for that silvery, grey driftwood color that is so hard to replicate in nature.
