FROM THE BEGINNING, we at Valiant have tried to develop a line of products which would satisfy the requirements of individuals at all levels of collecting, from the rank beginner to the acknowledged expert. We think we have succeeded.
Our figurine kits represent the styles and talents of more than a dozen of America's most prominent miniature sculptors, each with his own concept of just what a miniature should be. The figures themselves are crisply detailed and easy to paint, and are cast in a non-corrosive pewter alloy. The castings are completely ready to paint, and do not even require a primer, although a primer coat generally accentuates the detail and makes painting a lot easier.
The instruction sheets are clear and easy to understand, with the painting instructions keyed to large front and back view drawings of the figure. In many kits the instructions are supplemented by a full-color print of the completed figure, to settle any questions about a specific color. Many collectors prize these pictures for their own value, since they show the work of many of the finest miniature painters in the country.

Finally, as you move through this catalog, we hope you will enjoy our items as much as we have enjoyed bringing them to you.
