I'm afraid that there is no website for Supercast, but I do have a postal address of the proprietor: Mike Pett, 12 Chatham Street, Ramsgate, CT11 7PP, UK. I also have an email address: mikepettphotos@btconnect.com<br />With all best wishes,<br />George.George Denthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13636120634078363608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212570041608488781.post-65746333109213171642012-04-09T14:28:50.983+01:002012-04-09T14:28:50.983+01:00Fully agree with pre-zli's comments about '...Fully agree with pre-zli's comments about 'frozen-in-motion' figures. Your gardener looks real and plausible, George. Well done! <br /><br />Now where do I buy Supercast figures? They were reviewed in the August 2011 issue of Hornby Magazine but only a phone number contact was given. No address, website or e-mail address was given. I've also not seen Supercast figures advertized... or at least the advert hasn't 'jumped out at me' from the pages of the magazine. I live in Canada so am unlikely to pick up the phone and start dialing no matter how good the product looks! I stick with those I know how to contact.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212570041608488781.post-61714338617132837222011-10-06T15:38:53.631+01:002011-10-06T15:38:53.631+01:00Hi,

Hopefully I'll find tips and tricks to address my eternal concern with figures: how to make them look natural and properly "in situ" in busy scenes when they are so desperately static? The resting gardener is definitely a very good idea in this respect, as well as the jacketed figure standing idly by his lorry, but these tend to be exceptions. In general, the figures I see around layouts try to suggest action by waving immobile handkerchiefs at trains nowhere to be seen, by gesticulating motionlessly in heated discussions in car crash cameos, or by being frozen in running postures that look everything but natural.pre-zlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05523212575731694161noreply@blogger.com
