Farpoint Minatures
« on: September 09, 2013, 01:12:57 PM »
Start of the year a company names Farpoint Miniatures was launched but all trace of them on the internet seems to have disappeared. Search for the name in google images, you can see some very nice hard science fiction 28mm models. Any idea what has happened to them?

Their site no longer exists (their announcement thread on LAF is still in existence, and the link no longer works).

So I'am assuming that the support for their line never really materialised, and thus forced the miniature company to an early grave. Though I hope I'm wrong on that and someone proves it quickly.

Though I wouldn't be surprised if thats the case, I don't think the market for 28mm sci fi  is at all big, compared to other subjects/scales.

Isn't that the same guy with the Oathsworn Dwarves kickstarter? Might be busy with fantasy stuff.

The owner is a member here - Lovejoy - so maybe you can drop him an email to see if he still sells them.
