What ? :o

I presume that means me.

If you're daring to have a go at me for doing/converting 28m figures (for someone who actually works for Sir..but has his own separate 'firm'......FYI...Leon knows full well I'm doing these.....in fact he passed the 'other firm' on to me....'cos Leon's a really nice chap)

I can't believe it's taken SO long for anyone to suss this out.......I've been doing this for well over three years.

No adverts for the other firm :D

Cheers - Phil :P

I think he's referring to Dave's 28mm Schleswig-Holstein War figures.

He certainly is.....

At the mo'....I'm SO close to throwing a new frigging phone, at the wall  >:( >:( >:( >:(..... (that Von made the biggest mistake in buying yesterday...or was it two days ago).....I just want to set it up so we can simply make calls to the AA...or home....that's all I'm interested in.
I can't even get it to go back to 'factory reset'.....The instructions are worse than trying to get to a BT call centre 5 years ago.

As far as I am aware Techno is a Freelance figure designer, meaning he is free to make little men, animals, fantasy figures, for anyone , or  even 28cm sculpts of Anne Hathaway for Nobby.

I also know that he very ethical in what he does, being fully transparent to all clients.  Making sure that work he does for one client does not have a negative impact on another.

I know as when I asked him to do some stuff for me he cleared it with another firm that he does similar stuff for in the same scale.

And anyway Leon has his range of 28mm figures.

Yep, that'll be Dave's little project that he's been working on.  It's nothing to do with Pendraken though, so if you want any of them you'll need to contact him!

;D  Or given the Navy theme, simply this?


And apparently Action Men live on - Tony Barton's 1/6th Scale figures:-
