Re: 6-10mm ST Bugs

Daniel's point remains, at least for me,  NO pictures means NO sales
from
me.  Again, custom created (Eureka) is an exception.  Ditto if I could
find someone to do Nektons in 6mm - John McEwan e-mailed me a go ahead
to
find a 6mm sculptor...

*And* if your 'model' is so close a copy that it invites copyright
infringement then maybe the lawyer is over-zealous,  Or maybe your model
is an attempt to skirt copy right on purpose.  [Yeah, that's harsh but
is
it true?  Yes, in some cases.]

You don't have to be French to be a 'frog', or even human!
Nektons - Real Marines! (Die, Ralnai, Die!)
Starguard, Dirtside 2,	Ratner's Space Marines, Stellar Conflicts
and Uprisings, and Full Thrust/2nd.  Resistance is everything!
