The greyhound types are sculpted by Stephen May and were commissioned by for Simon Chick (Painterman) for his own collection. He had some extra sets cast and offered them for sale. There are 4 in the pack - there's a running one I didn't include here. Don't know if Simon still has any left to sell.

The big woofers are Vendel (as was) Mastiffs - although I've painted them as rottweiler types. There are 5 in a pack. I've got 3 more to do.
You can also get the same pack but without collars. Well, you used to be able to anyway... Not sure now. I believe they're produced in the USA. Sergeant-Major Miniatures I think?

Great scene, lovely painting overall but especially the dogs! I've got the greyhound ones already, superb sculpts, but now I have to get the Vendel ones ...  :-*

Probably the best dogs I've ever seen.

Where can we get in touch with him?

I recently bought a few packs of the hound sculpts from Simon.  If he still has any he'll do right by you.

Another difficult choice, but colours used and so characteristic way of painting of Captain Blood is impressive and always astonished me, certainly I never miss a post of him, congratulations  :o

Thanks, ordered a pack.

I'm afraid that I'm now out of any spare stocks of hound castings as at 12 May.
 - I have had a minor glut of orders since Captain Blood's fine paintwork and having checked the boxes I only have a few left (which I need to use for myself!).
All those who I've acknowledged to date, will get the castings sent to them.
Many thanks for the orders - I will look into getting more done later this year, if the interest remains viable for me to do so.

Simon.
