The legal process is exhausting and really draining emotionally. It's like going to war, one side may come out ahead but there's no real "winners" as everyone involved comes out worse than they went in. Even though I was only involved for 1 1/2 years (and not 4) it was such a soul sucking experience that even once it was behind me it really dampened a lot of the enthusiasm I had towards gaming and modelling as a whole. My interest level in anything remotely GW related was completely dead for quite a while.

I imagine the process was much worse for Nick given how much longer it went on for him, add in difficulties with a KS project and it's very easy for things to grind to a halt (even if it's just for a time). A small business (especially an art based one) lives and dies by the enthusiasm/energy of the owner so if he's burnt out or overwhelmed then there's a good chance you'll see things slow down or even stop for a bit until they can get get that internal energy built back up.

I hope Nick is doing ok and that he wasn't soured on gaming too much, it certainly wasn't an easy thing to go through.
