I would like to welcome aboard two new advertisers whose banners can be seen 24/7 on the right. Tasca is a Japanese manufacturer of some really cool new items so check them out, and Paint Assistant is a company that makes software for modelers to help with painting issues.

Thanks!
Jim

That's a neat looking jig Tasca have on the japanese homepage I wonder if it only does Sherman tracks?

Bravo, welcome aboard!
The paint software looks very interesting indeed, and Tasca, great products!
Thanks for your support!

Excellent, always nice to welcome new supporters of the site.

And advertising works.
Being a total freak about software I bought this software. One of the very neat things is that you can choose one color from one manufacturer range and find the closest paint from the other manufacturers. Very nice indeed. At least for me coz I'm kind of limited on what I can get around here, and kits often list Tamiya, Humbrol and Gunze paints. I prefer Vallejo because of it's availability

But there's always another side:
It would be nice to be able to print the list of selected paints.
The Xtracolor and Xtracrylics are missing on the database.
The ranges from Life Color, Vallejo and RAL (the ones I noticed) seem to lack certain references.

Other than that is a very cool piece of software for the price.
