I trust we'll be getting a video tour of the new place when everything is finished, including a group (mug :D)shot off all you good people at Pendraken?

Are you going to have a large 'Pendraken Miniatures' sign outside?

We will be yes, I just need to get it designed and over to the printers to sort out.

I can do a video tour, no worries there.  Rounding up the staff for a picture might be difficult though, a lot of them aren't too keen on being photo'd!

And we also spent an hour or so with the scaffolding tower getting the workshop wall plasterboard skimmed and sealed, ready for painting early next week hopefully.
Ah! I see. A fresco then. "The Dark Lord leads his creatures to the inevitable supremacy of the one true scale!" Picture of Leon pointing optimistically into the future, whilst Milady stands at his side, dimpled chin determinedly stuck forward (possibly clutching a heroically streaming flag (with edges appropriately coloured))  whilst behind (and much smaller) the casting dwarves and the rest of the Pendraken bestiary gaze in appreciation, hope and a little green gunk in their eyes as they blink at the golden dawn of a new era.

Pendraken could all stand facing it every morning as they sing the company song and do 10 minutes of knee bends and stretches.



Maybe I don't actually appreciate the Pendraken company ethos.

I have in the past, suggested a Pendraken calendar. I think the idea was misunderstood ... 'cos I certainly did not say the words "nude", "naked" or "in the buff".




I think I said "starkers".

Perhaps Leon could make a Forum Calendar using members of the forum  holding strategically placed Pendraken products to hide their nakedness.

It could be sent out free with any order under £100 or you could 'opt out' of the free gift by paying an extra £5 delivery charge - He would make a fortune  ;D ;D

Oh. Dear. God.  :( :( :(

I don't think there's enough mind-bleach in the world to make this go away.

That was evil.

Considering that the biggest product in the Pendraken catalogue is probably the WWI Railway gun at about 4 inches long, I think we might have some coverage issues...

It felt quite emotional today as we took the sign off our old unit and handed the keys back. But a new chapter now begins with more space, more products and more potential for the future. Exciting times ahead!

Another 35 orders went out today as well which makes 185 packages sent out this week.  The piles are starting to look a lot more normal so we should be back to something close to a 7-day turnaround again within 2 weeks I'd think.

Are you sure that 10mm products will do the job?
