Thanks for all your support so far - just a quick update:

Am still waiting upon fresh castings of the Landrover - spoke with Griffin this morning, and they are working extra hours catching up on the backlog of orders caused by the pre-Crisis Rush.

On the figure front I will have a fresh bunch of greens to go off for mouldmaking very shortly - six more civvies and a driver for the Landrover from Ian Mountain, and plus four more characters from Shane Hoyle.

In the meantime, I still have castings of everything else, so PM me if you are interested.

A good news update!

 :D

1) Have just received the restock of the land rover and VW camper van - Please PM me if you are interested in getting hold of some because the first run of castings went really quickly.

2) Have also just received the crew for the land rover - these have gone straight off to Griffin for casting (please note that there may be a slight delay in getting these back as Griffin are really busy at the moment).

3) Have also got the first castings of the box vans that 6mmPhil has built for my project - again please PM me if you are after one or more of them.

Second batch of unarmed civilians from Ian Mountain.

These were made from the same dollies as the first bunch so are a similar height - the brief for future greens will be to provide some more variety in terms of height, shape, pose etc.

 :D





Will let you know when they are cast up - in the meantime still have some of everything.

A couple more greens....more civilians.

It had been pointed out to me, that for a game set in the Asia-Pacific region that I didnt have any locals, so this time Shane Hoyle has sculpted a fisherman and his wife.

Not my best photo, but he has a net over his shoulder, string of fish in his other hand, and his shoes/flip flops tucked into his pocket. His good lady wife is carrying a basket of fruit/veg that she has just picked. Both unarmed.

Correspondingly shorter than the others .... Will take a comparison photo when I get a minute.

Not 100% sure if I will be at Salute this year, so if you want some I would order sooner rather than later - still just a personal project and the moulds won't last forever  ;) :)

I just wanted to thank everyone again for their support, for what remains a personal project - all (paid for) parcels have been posted out.

There is still (just) enough time for additional toys before Christmas if anyone is interested - I still have some of everything.

PM me for details if you haven't already - preferably with your address so I can give postage costs as well.

 :)
