No problem

Here's the link directly pasted from the golbinaid facebook page

goblinaidATfenrisgamesDOTcom

(replace AT with @ and DOT with .)

you need to log in to your paypal account and 'send money' to that email address, Goblinaid will then pass it on to Kev Adams.

hope this works for you now, and thanks for the support

Last info was from this post by one of Kev's friends on the Goblinaid facebook page (1st July)


Dave Leigh

Ey yup Goblinaiders! Just finished a 2 hour phone conversation with Kev and he has asked me to pass on the following; he feels bad that he is not really a facebook person and does'nt have the time to reply to the goodwill messages. However he does get to read every single message from the community that wish him well and each one he values and is humbled with appreciation for what you say. So in a nutshell "I humbly appreciate everything that the community has done for me and my family, whether it be a donated sculpt, a goodwill message or a purchase from the Goblinaid store. A big shout out for Dags and Ian! Thank You so much!"

Excellent news Panic

I got my second set through the post this morning and hope to get the single piece figures cleaned up and undercoated when I get in this evening

GA13 Yann Hoarau's Goblincopter looks fantastic but will need a fair amount of work to put together so it will have to wait until later (along with the mutipart minis from the first set)

It will sit there tempting you,

A sneaky addition of a single mini & familiar from the 'Fantasy Two's' set has appeared on the RPE site, i'm guessing the rest of the set will follow when casting time permits



http://www.ralparthaeurope.co.uk/shop/ga21-george-fairlambs-goblin-wizard-with-pet-p-2902.html

I'll wait for the rest of the set (or another set) to appear before getting this one

My set of the Fantasy Threes arrived this morning

(great casts as usual)

and Paul from Ral Partha Europe included a little note letting me know that Goblinaid was able to send £500 to Kev Adams last month

so a big thanks to all who are supporting the project, that's a nice solid contribution we have made to Kev's welfare and recovery


and from Paul on facebook

RPE Miniatures and Games posted toGoblinaid

Next batch of releases should be the cavalry ones, plus the gangnam gobbos! It stretched my mouldmaking abilities and left the master in quite a lot of parts, but the master moulding is done and I'm happy to say that it will be a one-piece casting

My 'Riders' set arrived today and I thought folk might like to see the different parts each are made up of

GA22 David Soderquist's Goblin BOAR (mislabelled WARG, but it is a boar)



GA23 Mark Evan's Goblin Wolf Rider



both of these have the riders nicely cast as separate pieces and size wise they are about the same so (with some converting) you should be able to persuade them to ride each others mounts if you wish,

GA24 John Pickford's Green Barron


the barrel cart (nice detail on the rear) is done as a hollow 2 piece cast including the riders legs. The riders body is a separate part, and so is the wheel with hands attached

Big update from Kev (Via Goblinaid on facebook)

Sorry for the complete lack of updates on my (geronimo) part recently - life's been somewhat hectic. Message from Kev, including details of his cancelled op last week:

"Hi everybody ,
A massive thanks for all those who are helping and have helped me , i'm feeling really well and happy , eye is a lot better and i aim to be starting to make models in a few weeks time , i can focus again thanks to a prism on glasses but am very rusty and need to practice so will do bits here and there over the next couple of weeks to sharpen up .
I reckon i will need new glasses soon as ive had a wee bit of trouble seeing up close .
When i went for a walk later to go volunteering i was very disorientated and couldnt walk straight but i think its to do with my focus adjusting.
The operation was cancelled because of a toothache and its going to be a while now before they can operate so ive decided to go back to work once i'm signed off , even if my eye is a bit dry, i would rather have my independence back and get back making models .

The first model i'm going to make is a goblin decorator based on myself with eye patch tin of paint , bush , apron and maybe some rolls of wallpaper .I want all the proceeds of the model to raise money for Syrian refugees and hope it will sell better than my usual models .
Its my way of saying a big THANK YOU to everybody who has helped and its my way of showing appreciation for everybodys kindness .

Over the last few months ive kept very busy and completely re decorated the house and painted the exterior plus ive been busy in the garden , its helped me no end with healing and ive nearly finished now and will have plenty of time for working again once i start .
Obviously i need to go and have this horrible operation later on and will be off work again while it heals so i will look like a pirate for a few weeks while it heals .The operation involves taking a sample of flesh from roof of mouth to graft below eye so i have a lower lid again.

It wont be for a while though because i cant book for the op until my teeth are fixed and ive been told to wait six weeks after the dental treatment before contacting the hospital, my dental appointments at the end of the month so its going to be around two months .

Will keep you all posted .

again many thanks .
kev

Nice painting, Orlando! Can't wait until those last waves are done and I'll buy some of these...

Good to see an update from Kev, I kind of wish he could've had the operation to get it over with but good that he's in high spirits and starting to sculpt again!

Thanks Azazelx,

I'm having fun painting them when I find time, and painted minis may sway fence sitters to buy when a green does not so I get to show off for a good cause

(the Judge Dredd Goblin was not one of mine but was done by it's own sculptor, and if anybody on Dakka has painted one DO please post it on the thread, it's great to see these minis come to life)

and Nurse Gobbo's (GA08) sculptor Paul Gargon has posted a WIP of her to facebook



and James Degenhardt has just posted his version of GA12 Kev White's Goblin batman (that denim is great)



and news from, a bit of a health related delay on the next release

RPE Miniatures and Games

Hello, just a quick post to let you know that there will be another batch of releases coming very soon- it would have been much sooner but I'm having a bit of back trouble (sciatica) once it's calmed down I can resume heavy lifting and mould wrangling duty...
