I am fairly new to this hobby and game ..My son is Autistic . I did not have a lot of experience in paining these models, so I went online and found battleground wargaming miniature paining. The Guy was based in Brampton Ontario Canada...I paid him over 600 dollars and gave him over 500 in models to be painted..t first he was fine,, once a week I would get up dated pics on the models etc. then nadda, he then said they were done ..I go to pick them up and they were far from done..i demanded that he finish the work.. He said yes and took the models back...and now he has vanished..i have talked to several people from England and they sent him models as well with money and nadda. does anyone here know SEAN DUNCAN the web page is down and he does not respond to email or calls

thanks hoping this community can help

Hi,

Welcome to Dakka its a real shame that your models have gone, I too have had models go missing without even a parting goodbye so I feel for you.

thanks yes its a real shame, hoping at the very least that this post will be seen by others and he wont be able to rip people off in the future

Unfortunately you're not the first to have these issues, he's a known scammer.

But welcome to dakka, I hope you enjoy it here and that it helps keep your excitement for the game going in this rough time

Hi. Welcome to Dakka

Keep ringing, go over there and knock on the door, call the cops. There are many threads here where people have finally received some kind of compensation, and that is only after hassling him endlessly.

Get anything back from him that you can, don't wait for him to paint it, he won't. Accept that you'll probably lose half the money.
