Bad and complex news for a high-quality terrain and transport manufacturer. Get your last orders in before the end of the financial year.

Sad to hear, but good to know he's making the right decision instead of laboring on, unmotivated and losing money, etc.

I've seen plenty of his YouTube videos and he could definitely get into the "creator/influencer" kind of space with hobby videos and collaborations, etc.  Wish him the best.  I only have one set of KoD buildings on hand, but I may grab a few more.  The biggest issue as a U.S. buyer (and likely every other country) is that shipping from Australia is just insanity (and logically so).  That kind of kills your market unless you have a fervent Australian following.

Shame as his scenery is fantastic, just never ordered myself due to shipping costs.

Same- I have been tempted by the Tabula Rasa range.

Yep, the Tabula Rasa range is solid (I recently ordered 10 buildings, and the shipping was a full 35% of the order cost which....was painful).

Real shame, particularly as his workshop is a ten minute drive from me. Time to order some more bases and buildings.

I'm curious what he'll do if he gets a massive flood of orders...since it sounds like he's a one-man shop.  I know when 4Ground pulled their recent "second fake bankruptcy" they took 6-7 months to be able to ship all the stuff people ordered.

A shame, as his products seem perfectly suited to my needs. The name sounded familiar but this was the first time I actually looked at his site and especially those Tabula Rasa buildings look excellent.

And I also have to echo the chorus of finding the shipping to Europe to be rather prohibitive, but if not, I would be all over those buildings for sure.

I wish him all the best, especially since his business has been hit that hard. I mean; from 12 to 1 man is quite simply disastrous! Here's to hoping his personal mojo gets rekindled by this change...

 They do free shipping on orders over $400 Australian Dollars.
 Very tempted by quite a few of the kits they have.
 There was also a post on FB i think about him selling pieces from the shop which are made-up.Not sure if they had a gaming area.
