Sorry to say that the ID 48th Armor line is closing down tomorrow. I would just like to say Thank You to everyone for their help and support over the last (almost)year that this line has exhisted. It has been a rough way to go here lately for me, especially since the split. All of you have my sincerest apologies for any delays in receiving your orders. I'm doing the best I can to get them done.
This by no means is goodbye, heck, I'll be able to post some real work here when I get the time. Of course, my work in the resin field is by no means gone. If any of you need Masters done for new kits, just let me know. I already have few lined-up for some of you, unfortunately those will be short-run projects (you'll get the molds when the casting is done Bruce!).
Bob , deep thanks to you for all the effort , time , sweat and tear's that you have put into the the 1/48th Sherman update sets you have made.
I have just placed a second order that should keep me going. No sweat on the delay's, just drop us a line when you have had the time to complete my orders so as I can keep an eye out for the Postman
When the dust settles and normality returns I am sure we will get to see some of your work posted here - I for one look forward to that
I have noted your comments that you are backlogged, but since your system doesn't provide purchasers with an order confirmation, and you state you are "out of business" as far as 48th items go after tomorrow, could you please confirm that you have received my order? Some turrets, a number of the M4A3E8 suspension sets etc.
Give a man some peace of mind as he tries to get to sleep, knowing that his order has been received!
There is an order confirmation/Thank you page that does pop up (or at least it used to) once the "Submit" button is pressed. Guess I'll have to go back into the system and re-check it again. Now the $100 question is, what am I going to do with all these molds? Of course, then the question arises with all the half-completed Masters lying around my shop. Oh well, I'll figure something out.

Email me concerning your molds and masters. I was under the impression they had found a new home. I do NOT intend to go into the aftermarket business, but I do have a friend who casts for Warhammer-type games, and he may be able to use some of the molds for me. As for the masters, please let me know what you have; I may very well be willing to buy some from you, or pay to have you finish a couple or more depending on what they are (is the big kitty among them?). Look forward to hearing from you, and certainly don't be a stranger. You gave it a very good run for the money, and we do appreuiate your efforts.
I was trying to convince Bob to do a conversion to make a Panther ausf D and A from the Tamiya ausf G kit. I don't know if he was working on it or not, but he will be doing masters on his own for other companies, wealthy ne'er-do-wells (), and others. I am interested in what he finished and what he started. I really have no idea right now what may be available. I am also contacting Tim, lad (TM) for assistance with a 3-D master project; only way to do the model..... Some of us ARE incorrigible.....
Alas, Bob I also placed a last order before you closed the website, and I hope you just don't fade away like others have. You were a valuable assett to this website, and I do hope you stll visit once in awhile. I also hope that someone picks up your masters, to hopefully continue the 1/48th scale product line. Anyway, your products will be missed, good luck, Alan Vandam
No sir! Have no plans for it. On the contrary, I'll be busy with "fun stuff" in the future and will be sharing it with everyone.
Hi Bruce, message is in your in-box which you may find quite interesting!
Big Kitty? Oh yea, the half-finished Panther A upper hull with the totally finished turret Master with half the mold done. I guess Bruce meant that one.
