Post subject: | Exciting New Announcement! Shadow & Flame |
After the recent thread started about the hibernation of Majestic Bear Miniatures my new business partner and I were quite touched by the responses posted by the community in the thread. Who is it you may wonder? Well I mentioned that a new business endeavour was on the horizon and feel that the time is right to make its introduction. Although the website is still under construction I give you the collaboration between myself of Majestic Bear Miniatures and Kev from The Dead Marshes: Shadow and Flame will be carrying some, if not all of the Majestic Bear Miniatures sculpts once we have had a chance to sort out rebranding and of course restocking so for those of you who are still looking for that Beorn and Bear alternative don't worry the sculpts will become available again in due course. The site will not only offer the same services as MBM (minis, sculpting and converting) but will also carry the painting service currently offered by Kev at the Dead Marshes. After pairing up on several commissions already, it kind of made sense to put everything under one umbrella. Lots of big plans coming for 2014 with hopefully (commission work allowing) further scratch sculpts becoming available in keeping with the fantasy genre that you may (or may not) find some use for in your own Middle-earth. I will keep you updated on the website construction as and when we have news from Dagorlad, who is the brains behind the web design and construction, and without whom the whole thing could not be possible. Kev and I would like to thank everybody for the continued support both on here on the One Ring and on our respective websites, and of course Alan for helping turn our concepts into reality. Very exciting times ahead. Thanks again UKFB (& DMS) |

They said: Quote: it kind of made sense to put everything under one umbrella So this will be a sculpted umbrella.... If I may be so bold as to make several suggestions (when was I ever famous for being backwards?): Orcs, goblins and undead are common to many fantasy worlds and games, so no-one can claim to absolute IP on any of them. Perhaps the possibility of several of each, very high quality, good detailing, with alternate heads, weapons, shields, banners (not all in one pack but you choose body A, with L arm A, R arm B, head C). Custom components for adapting existing minis? Just throwing ideas at this point. The very best of luck guys. Maybe this thread should have been entitled 'A Long Expected Partnership'. |

Very Very cool indeed! Will the new site have like a massive gallery of all the awesomeness you two have ever created? That'd be a neat feature imo... Best of luck with your venture |

Great news! I wish you both the very best of luck with the endeavour, and look forward to seeing what you produce. Dorthonion wrote: Orcs, goblins and undead are common to many fantasy worlds and games, so no-one can claim to absolute IP on any of them. Custom components for adapting existing minis? The very best of luck guys. I'd love to see a big scary looking Orc on the back of a large wolf, that might or might not be painted in a pale shade, and a footed version of the same. It may come as a surprise, but some of us don't like our character models made of poorly cast rubber with bubbles in it. I'm sure lots of others might like to see a certain kind of ghostly undead miniature of an incorporeal and shadowy nature... However, I don't suppose I need to warn about the danger of getting slapped with a C&D from a very aggressive parent company who has a history of trying to crush small producers who make "space warrior shoulder pads", etc. It can be done, but important to tread pretty carefully. |
