    Hello...

    In first place I want to express my gratitute to all of you... Once again RPmodels found a great sucess, with Harald Hardrada... Another piece that is walking to a SOLD OUT Edition... THANK YOU SO MUCH...

    Well... I thing its very important to tell why Im a little absent... In this moment Im doing a course, and the course just finish in August... Its a very stress course and very demand... And its impossible do everthing... And Ive to choose and of course this is my professional life, and in October I will be promote... More responsability... More headache... LOL... LOL... Because of that Ive to arrange the lauchs... And in this moment we are working/modelling figures for 5 companies, so its impossible to do everthing and all team is cruise with turbo ON... LOL... LOL... Like Navy Seals dilema, 'The only easy day was yesterday'... And its true... Really true...

    In next month I will lauch Viriatus... And after that just in August... Boudica, Sun Tzu, Douglas Bader Cockpit, Catafratari, WW1 Bomber and the yougest RAF Spitfire pilot in WW2...

    About Sun Tzu... This is just a concept that we are loking and we are developing our figure inspire in this...

    We have another project in developing and I feel a tremendous pround to annouce him... He are developing the younguest pilot of RAF that flight in a Sptifire, Mr. Wellum... All Box will be sign by him and his biography book will be available, and sign by him too...

    I will let you with the painel of Douglas Bader Cockpit... In one photo you can see my hand and its just for you can see the size... The photo is take by me... I know my photos are bad... You dont need to remember me... LOL...

    Boudica, Catafratari and WW1 Bomber is in developing... So in August/September we will have many news...

    I receive many messages and emails asking me if everthing is alright, because I dont say nothing... This is something that proud myself... People was/are worried with me... This is the best signal of friendship... This is the kind of brotherwood that we can find in the army... Its AMAZING... Today we lived in a complex world, with so many changes... And some of them bring us many attention, but people continue to have great values... I dont have words to describe this situation... And Ive the perfect conscience, that the worf THANK YOU is very small and empty for express me...

    TAHNK YOU SO MUCH...

    With best regards

    The Sun Tzu concept figure has all the hallmarks of a classic. It's a pity that it's likely to be an expensive limited edition as I'm certain plenty of painters would happlily save up for it but if it looks anything like this it'll sell out in days (y)
    Superb

    Hello Mr. Del...

    I understand you but infortunally the Limited Edition is a solution for me... In this moment teh 3D studio is huge, and I believe in the future I will have to increade him... So another cut in the stockhouse... LOL... And I believe and if the figure is SOLD OUT Ive more time for concentrate in the new figures. All the figures have to be study and all teh figures have to design naked for I can ckeck all anatomy... And after that we start dress and put the gear and weapons on the figure... So we have to concentrate on his progress... Imagine if you have to do sells and control teh 3D modelling? I believe we woludnt well both things... I prefer lauch the figures, and they will be sell and then I will concentrate on the 3D design and modelling...

    I hope you understand our point of view and I ask apologies for any inconvenience...

    With best regards

    Hugo, don't get me wrong I'm not criticising your business model and your reasons, if anything quite the opposie.
    It's more an observation that if it comes close to the image shown I genuinely believe that you have created one of the relatively few genuinely 'classic' action mounted figures in the hobby and that demand will by far exceed supply.
    Best wishes

    Hello Mr. Kevin

    Thank you for your sympathic words... I already told this in posts before... people have to see the 3D like a tool... nothing else... The 3D don't come to kill traditional sculpture... don't came to change nothing... Comes to do an upgrade to hobby and allow to improve the sculpture... there are sculptures with a fantastic talent...

    The love 3D because I love digital sculpture... and in the beginning when we start work, we work in 3D... and because of that we continue in this work...

    We have a big preoccupation to try to find a different character with a magnificent history... and this is the big challenge... but I believe we are in a good way...

    All the figures are coming in this year, are very good and different... but I believe people will love it...

    Thank you so much for your support...
    With best regards
    Hugo Pereira
