SilentSurfer's Laboratory: Come up to the Lab & See What's on the Slab.

[stshammgod]

Hey man, sorry to hear. Some people simply cannot keep personal and professional stuff separate. Keep doin what you do, cuz that's you bud!

 

[shocktrooper_au]

Well at least their production figures stand a chance of looking like the protos now....

 

[Buttmunch]

That really sucks Nathan! You were their go-to guy for almost everything 1:6 for the last year. A real shame. Hopefully they change their minds, but if not, just the more of you to go around here

Since they canned you, spill the beans on what you've worked on!

 

[pixletwin]

Sorry to hear that SS. Seems like Sideshow has been having issues keeping their painters. Could it be that their problem is managerial and *GASP* a product of their office culture?

Okay, I'll bite. I'm a sucker for drama.

Who else has Sideshow dropped??

 

[samueljd]

Good news for all figure bashers and custom figure collectors: Sideshow has decided to unceremoniously drop me as a painter. They haven't been so bold as to say why, so I'm left to pressume it's a group decision based on a personal matter I discussed with one of them on Facebook.

There loss is your gain. Keep an eye on my signature for indication that the doors to the lab are wide open. I still have a considerable backlog of commissions to get through already, so it won't be immediate, but it'll be much sooner than it would have been.

Maybe ARH will pick you up as a painter now. They could use your expertise (though I think they already have a couple painters).

 

[El Calvo]

Sorry to hear about SS Nathan thats crazy to let you go.

 

[Raymond F.]

That sucks man.. they don't know what to do with true talent and never do your work justice anyway.

Anyway Silent Surfer is conspicuously absent in my vast 1/6 collection... I think it's about time that changed! My eyes will be peeeeled.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Thanks guys. Yes, there will be a lot more of me to go around on the board now.

Since they canned you, spill the beans on what you've worked on!

I'd love to, but that would spoil the fun for me later to post pics when they are announced. I think I've got enough stuff in the works that it will take another 6 months to a year before it is all revealed.

I've made contact with them in the past. I'll probably hit up lots of other companies again. But for now, I'll let my Freak Flag Fly!

 

[MwNN]

Wow, that sucks Nathan! What a shame!
Their loss is our gain! I'll be looking forward to seeing what you have up your sleeve.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Up first is the Jayne for Adam Baldwin project, along with a repaint of my own Jyane head.

Then is a whole lotta Breaking Bad.

I have a Jayne head that needs doing as well......

 

[DarthMagnus]

So sorry to read this news brother. Their loss is the freaks gain! You'll be plenty busy for sure.

 

[barryo]

damn that's crappy news nathan. with your portfolio you won't be out of work for long........& the freak board alone should tide you over until then......
i still think ssc should have sent you to the factories to give their painters some lessons because they rarely if ever get close to what you did. best of luck to you.

 

[Levit05]

wow...thats sucks dude...well..at least i will be able to say that I will have quite a few of your works on my shelves....this i can guarantee...

 

[galactiboy]

Sorry to hear that Nathan, when one door closes another one opens

 

[Tesio]

That really sucks to hear Nathan . Your work is mind-blowingly good. I wish I had more money and projects I could enlist you in. The one thing I have from you just look fantastic. I stare at it daily .

 

[Angry Kal-El]

Sorry to hear about that. Hopefully, they at least let you know why. Can't wait to see all the new Freaks stuff you do!

 

[rishi]

Sorry to hear about it Nathan. Those guys must be out of their minds!

 

[SilentSurfer]

Thank you all very much. I read every single reply and each one meant a lot to me. Thank you.

I have a Jayne head that needs doing as well......

It won't make it in this batch, but PM me anyway.
