Just wondering how to remove green stuff from some of my models because some of the shoddy conversions of the past haunt me on my work desk.

Haunt you or a sense of inspiration ?
The only way I've got it off is by cutting the bigger bits with a scalpel then filing the rest away. It's tedious work but worth it.

I like Gandalf's positive spin on this, be inspired and have another go, but preferably with a sculpting tool! I am sure that it will be worth it.

is it plastic or metal, I recently had to remove green stuff from a metal troll and I was given the advice of using nail polish remover, which worked really well, however if your goblins are the plastic ones I wouldn't suggest it, the nail polish remover will melt the plastic

^Yeah I remember that thread. It also has to be a specific nail polish remover. The thread is somewhere kicking around in "Help with Miniatures".

Personally I have found that it just falls away with a little pressure!

Hot water works great! Put them in a mug an cover with hot water (not boiling but really hot). GS will become very flexible and can be peeled of!
