Hello,

I am interested in getting info on pewter casts of the original set, specifically the heroes, and the heroes from the expansions as well including any conversions from male to female versions of the heroes.

Is Patroclus still doing these?

Thanks.

I got a PM from billdask in December, saying that work, family, life, etc. was keeping him busy these days. Sounds like he is out of the casting biz until further notice.

I may have a look in to doing this, but depends on initial outlay of material costs.

I want to be able to mod the crap out of miniatures, but hard to get the ones I want.

If I make my own, then its no big deal. Then can make for others if they are good enough.

That was part of the reason why I wanted to start doing this too. I may pick it up again in the future, but right now I don't have the time.

Let me try and teach myself 3d modeling in Sculptris. I can draw freehand, so have an idea of how I want the miniatures to look.

It's getting the 3D model to look how I want.
