Incredibly proud of the two brand new models i am now presrnting to you all ..

These are the first two new outputs i have done since getting back from my holiday, and i seem to be enjoying this more then ever. Please take a look and let me know your thoughts -

AGENT X

I wanted to tackle something a little more complex for a stand up cabinet, so i worked my way through Agent X. This is the same cabinet design as Crystal Castles, so that model will follow shortly too. You can see that it has the recessed speaker unit above the screen and below the marquee. It was quite tricky to do, given the small scale, but I am really happy with how it turned out. Also, please note that i know the joysticks should be red and not black, but i wont have red ones to hand until tommorrow, and i was desperate to get some feedback on this.

JOUST

This new model was inspired by a conversation i had with "Fuseball", who is the man that originally made up the first few paper arcade models that were the route of my inspiration to start model making properly. He was very kind about my work, and said he would love to see my produce Joust as a Retro Heart scale model, so here it is!

It is the same spec as all my models now, with Fujitsu Super Gloss photo paper for the graphics, Acetate for the screen, which is mounted with the bezel in front of the "monitor", and with the little scale joysticks.

I am about to upload both of these models to my web site, which I am sure by now you know is located at www.retro-heart.blogspot.com , and both models are now available for purchase. I aim to deliver even custom orders within several days of order, cos im a freak like that :)

As usual, any comments, feedback, critique or suggestions are welcome and appreciated

Much Love .. Retro-Heart

Have PM's you SubZero .. and im glad we have a friendly understanding. I think to avoid confusion in future, we should both assume that if someone posts in my model thread they are making an enquiry with me ( as was the case here ) , and if someone posts in your model thread, they are making an enquiry with you. That makes for a senisible system in my eyes :D

No need to apologise matey, I have Pm's SubZero regards this. You posted in my thread asking for a model. I have suggested some friendly guidelines for myself and Sub to avoid any potential future confusion. :)

boy, these models are brilliant, they really are..you so talented m8, the Joust one is superb as with all the rest of the wonderful creations you've made, ans Subzero is superb too..well done to the both you, and I hope you guys are very successful at pinching those pennies from this lot here at Retro Gamer™ forum.

I have one which might be classed as an negative "Copyright Infringements" to the respected Owners of the original coin-op art and design, as you are selling these miniatures for self gain and there is allot I'm sure of the industry that drop in here from time to time, and could bring this to the attention of the respected companies who own the rights to these machines, and could have a lawsuit on your hands, I suggest looking into this seriously, as it would be a travesty for theses products not be allowed to continue you both have created with these miniatures.

I havent pinched a single penny from anyone (yet) on the subject of copyright infringement however, all the artwork is freely available on t'internet - plus we arent the only guys in the world making these - tbh i dont see a problem as they are harmless. I could understand a problem if you were able to play the ACTUAL games on them though.
