This manufacturer seems to be in business for some time, but I only found him today through an ebay auction: Monolith Icon from Poland.

Apart from some resin bases and custom terrain, they offer keeps, towers and walls made from hardened ceramics. These are unpainted, heavy, more fragile and less detailed than resin, not cheap, but fantastic models for Chaos and Dark Elves:
Be aware that ceramics have their limitations, like less sharp spikes on walls and the awkward shipping/transportation, but I just must have this Dark Elf Keep! What do you think?

Very much like the dark elven stuff on the MMO, WAR. I've seen it before and like it a great deal.

Wow, that stuff is pretty bitchin!
But why caste it in something that is more expensive than resin but inferior in quality? That seems to be a poor choice.

Then dont use an ipad to look at it .. Flash for better or worse is what the vast majority of webpages use for dynamic content.. so
I do agree that it is excessively expensive to the point of really not being worth it

I would question the 'more fragile' bit... 'ceramic' covers a pretty broad spectrum of different compounds. Depending on exactly what they're using, it's actually quite possibly stronger than resin.
