Review – New Citadel Tools vs Hobby Tools Part 3

Forgive me, but I think I saved the best new Citadel Tool review for last (I really wanted to see if the new clippers lived up to the hype).


Trust me I want to buy new tools, I really do.

Nothing is more helpful in this hobby (or any hobby/job) that having the right tools for the right task.

But I’m sure Im just like everyone else reading this when I feel that for a hobby, I just don’t want to blow a bunch of cash on tools.  Especially when there are so many cool new toy soldiers to buy!

When I started this review, I had no idea it would turn out to be nearly THIRTY minutes long.  I really got into the comparisons with similar tools on the market and just kinda went to town on it.

So when the dust cleared, I broke the videos apart into about ten minute blocks to make them easier to digest.

This third video review is on the new sculpting tools, and clippers.

If you can’t wait and want to jump ahead to see all the reviews I did on the new tools,  you can find them over on my YouTube channel.
