Hmm it was dated spring 2010 so may be dead  :? Woody might know  bit more as he did the sculpting for them  ???

No he doesn't - I've been keeping an eye on the site because I was interested in buying the range if Mark decided to sell up.  I have talked to Woody about it and Mark just vanished with some unpaid sculpting bills..

I don't begrudge anyone staring their own business, but it never surprises me to hear how a company just gets out of control. Time and cash flow, rather the lack of these, is often the killer; and real life- job and family, illness etc just add further to ones woes.

One simple way to work out wether you have the time to start a range is to spend an evening laying out a ring of figures onto a nine inch dinner plate.

Put these into ziploc bags, say four to a bag, and then take them out and put them onto the plate again.

Repeat all evening, taking into account any disruptions from your family, housework, phonecalls from freinds/relatives etc.

This reflects the efforts required to pack stock for a show/trade order and does not take into account casting, the trip to the post office, the realisation that your £650.73 in orders goes no way towards the £983.57 that the contract casters latest invoice comes to.

By all means have a go, but remember, your hobby, your personal involvement in the hobby will be the first to suffer.

According to his profile he was last on LAF on the 8th September 2010 so email him.

I'll second the great on the RCMP!

Likewise. :)

Been on the lookout for some mounties for some Maple Pulp scenarios. Yes I am aware of the fellow Pulp Figures makes.

Wait, oh dear...
