I saw a list of ancient "myths" (defined as our erroneous beliefs and not true mythology) which listed that most of the buildings in Greece and Rome were painted in much gaudier colors (at least to our modern eyes) than the classic stone we see today. Is this something that the forum members agree with or is this just another way the "interwebs" confuse us?

PS I think those buidings are pretty cool, but I would go with the more detailed and colorized version for a scene in ancient Rome.

Yes archelologist founds colours pigments in the stones, but as stone is like a sponge, colours were dulled
But building like the Parthenon, were in marble, less porous

You can pass it along to me. I was eyeing this kit a while back. Curious what a commission today might run.

Good morning Gentlemen!

I miss some ACW Generals in my collection.

I just wonder, is it allowed to ask members if they have these figures for sale.

Best wishes: Mattis

Hello Gentlemen!

Some of these guys are my favorite Generals. Both Jeb Stuart and John B. Gordon truly is. ( however John B. Gordon is best done by Conte Sons of the South) but what I was wondering about, has the St.Petersburg collection done General John Buford?

Dear Sirs!

I got another question for you. Is there anyone of you Gentlemen who are able to post my pictures and comments. I have spent several hours in trying to post pictures of my recent buyings to share with you, but my pictures always are to big, and it seems whatever I do they just won't fit.
If there is a administrator that would give me a email address I could send my pictures and comments to, I would be more than grateful, and have a whole lot more to share.

Hi
Your best bet is to upload them to a website like photobucket, or similar. Then you can use the link from that site on here
 
I would say photobucket is your best bet. All you have to do is copy the link and paste it here and the pictures will be visible to everyone. It's all very easy to do. The pictures I posted above were posted through photobucket.

Very easy to resize
Basic window is delivered wih a programm called "Paint"
Open it
Load your pictures
Clic on button resize
Choose percentage
Change for exemple the 100 horizontal in 40
he new picture is now 40% of original size ( if not enough try 30 )
save it perhaps with adding a R in the description ( R for resized )
Now you can load it in your new topic/answer
