Leia's dress looks great, too! Thanks for posting those pics in here!

My pleasure, as always!

Wow, I never thought I'd say this, but Leia looks BADASS!!! Nice work Nathan!

Nathan gave her some serious attitude with his paint.

The Nathan-SW lineup!

Man, that is one kick *** line up. I sooo love that Yoda. I think I told you that. The best on this board

Thanks, man! Nathan has really helped fill in the gaps of my Star Wars collection.

Been awfully quiet in here. How is the garage coming along?

 

[PopCultKid]

It's quiet.... too quiet....

I know he's been busy. I'm being patient myself as he has several pieces of mine that have been completed and paid for. :/

The same here!
I can't wait to see Nathan's posts in this thread!

I'm still here. Staying busy. Garage is fixed. Need a new car though. We didn't have comprehensive coverage on it, and the drunk a-hole doesn't have enough coverage to replace it.

I've got stuff to post, but every time I do I get hit with PMs and new requests, so I've stopped posting until I get caught up. I haven't stopped working though.

And I do still have finished stuff to ship back to some of you. Sorry about that.

Happy Thanksgiving Nathan!

All the best mate and Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey Nathan,

I wanted to pick your brain a bit about the work you did with the OOM-9 Battle Droid. I'm not sure if it wold be better here or in PMs. Let me know, thanks!

SPECIAL UPDATE

SilentSurfer's Lab is closing its doors to all private commissions for a while. Too much success became a bad thing, not for me, but for you. The number of clients become unmanageable, some were sending money when they shouldn't have, others didn't send it when they should have, and packages started showing up unexpectedly simply to get in our queue, etc., etc. At least one valuable customer has requested all his stuff sent back unpainted because he was justifiably unwilling to wait any longer. I don't blame him.

Other unrelated situations also complicated our ability to keep up with the flow of work. We are not closing shop or disappearing from the business, but we must close the doors in order to restore order to all the orders we have in an orderly fashion.

I will probably continue not to post my work in here for the time being so that I do not inadvertently encourage people to hit me up about new projects. My PMs, email accounts, and Facebook are a mess with requests. I am even closing the door on VIP customers until things are caught up.

To be clear, I do not consider this a sign of failure, but a sign of too much success, and I greatly appreciate that. I will continue to work and to serve you my friends and customers as I have plenty of work to do for a good while. ALL ORDERS IN MY POSESSION WILL BE COMPLETED UNLESS THE CLIENT REQUESTS THEM BACK BEFORE PAINT HAS BEGUN. In which case corresponding deposits will also be refunded.

My hope is to clear my slate and welcome new projects in the near future with a much shorter turnaround as new orders won't automatically be placed at the end of 100+ other orders.

This isn't goodbye, but...

Thanks for the update Nathan! My ghostbusters venkman is still with you, and I will continue to wait for what will be the crown jewel of my collection!

 

[SilentSurfer]

I know I've said this before, but Ghostbusters is coming up in a few projects.

My young indy is still waiting for you when you get back

If you're interested in buying my personal Young Indy, I'd be happy to sell it to you (I'm selling my Indy stuff) and save you the wait time on the project. You can just sell your own and buy mine for original figure cost plus repaint fee.

PM me if you want to do that.
