Hi all,

I started up a new range within Magpie miniatures. I call that part Magpie resin. The figures and stuff in it are designed, sculpted and cast by me in resin.

Here is what i have so far (I still need to get better pictures and all, and a propper website)... but atleast it gives a good idea of what\'s available from now on.

Animal set 1 28-32 mm scale: Frog, hedgehog and rabbit 1 (on all fours)
1,50 euro

Single frog: 0,50 euro
Single hedgehog: 0,75 euro
Single rabbit 1 (on all fours): 0,75 euro


Animalset 2 28-32 mm scale: Cat, rabbit 2 (standing), bird on treestump
1,75 euro

cat:

bird on treestump:

rabbit 2: see tic tac toe game for picture

Single cat: 0,75 euro
Single rabbit 2 (standing): 0,75 euro
Single bird on treestump: 0,75 euro

Toys, teddybear and toy pinguin: 1,20 euro

Single teddybear: 0,75 euro
Single toy pinguin: 0,75 euro

teddybear: see tic tac toe game for pictures


Tic Tac toe game rabbits: 6 euro

Ofcourse any tic tac toe game can be ordered for 6 euro per costumers wishes. Please say which figure(s) you want... and in case of 2 different ones, which one 5times and which one 4.

Dungeon floor bases: 3 different designs: 2,50 euro

small campfire: 0,75 euro

Important note: I can only accept payment through Paypal with the money drawn from what you already have on Paypal itself (so not directly from your bank or creditcard through Paypal). Ordering can be done by e-mailing or PM-ing me.

Everything comes unpainted.

Cheers,
Cindy

The sending depends on how much you order due to weight. I will charge what the postoffice charges me rounded up by a maximum of 6 cents for packaging. Resin is light.

Inside Europa Priority
0 - 20 g. € 0,80
20 - 50 g. € 1,50
50 - 100 g. € 2,20
100 - 250 g. € 2,90 (this is quite a LOT of figures, 3 tic tac toe games or 4-5 bases sets) or a truckload of small animals.

Outside Europa Priority (standard isn\'t possible anymore due to new postoffice prices and options)
0 - 20 g. € 0,95

yes those are definatly planned. I am learning a lot more not of what I can and can\'t do with the casting. So I now know better what to design and sculpt for the larger figs. Those take a lot longer to sculpt so that\'s why I tried stuff out with smaller figs first (and get the range expanded quicker due to it). Larger figs have a much bigger chance of miscasts as they have more trouble area\'s too.
The bird on treestump is a nightmare to cast for instance. Only 1 in 3 comes out right out of the mould... and it\'s a mould ripper as well.

What a great idea!
And how nice are those penguins!
Do you sell them also painted?

I\'ll surely but a set! :beer:

 

[cdukino]

Thanks. Glad you like them.

Everything comes unpainted. I do not plan on selling painted sets. To time consuming. I rather spend that time expanding the range instead.

I do plan a how-to-get-the-board-painted-up-like-this-in-a-few-easy-steps-tutorial

It could be that I\'m allergic to resin. I have a responce to something and it seems to point towards the resin or the moulding components. I have a small stock cast up, but won\'t be restocking for a while (want the rash to go down first and then slowely test if it is indeed the resin. So please if you want to order something soon please check availablitity.


Edit: Yes I am allergic to it, and quite severely, I\'m sure now... and quite a bit... so unfortunatly Magpie resin is no more. Simply not worth it. I am not taking chances. Health before fun. (as it was a lot of fun and I was good at it... dammit).

I will sell my stock on first come basis first served basis, but there won\'t be enough to fill all orders. I can\'t do custom orders now. I have a bunch of animals set 1 and 2. only very few toy sets. The Tic tac toe penguins only for the ones who ordered unless they cancle (have 2), a few campfires. One Tic Tac toe Teddybear set for sale and only one Tic tac toe rabbits. A bunch of single figures... And that\'s it.

I might have the familiars, Tic Tac toe boards and toys cast in metal one day. But that might be a long longtime from now.. if ever.

 

[cdukino]

I almost have nothing left, single frogs, hedgehogs and cats basically

Cindy,

I cast a lot of resin and know others who cast a lot of resin.. Ive never herd of anyone getting a rash from it.. where exactly are you getting a rash?

You are wearing gloves arent you?

Another questionis if it is on your hands and wrists..are you using Latex gloves? I know many people allergic to latex. I use a none latex glove for all my casting and molding work. The blue Nytrile type.

Also Id suggest wearing a chemical vapor mask.

Also what kind of rubber and resin are you using? what type of mold release?

Fill me in here I might be able to get you back in production. feel free to email me also.
