Thanks for your support Dave. Trouble is I can't really afford to put money up front for the moulding and other supplies like I used to do. Metal has gone up. Shipping has gone up. Tax has gone up meaning more expensive supplies. Household bills have gone up and I have a salary freeze. It may surprise you to know that I only make 9% net profit from the sale price of the minis, and that isn't really worth all the hassle. I could make more selling sculpts to other manufacturers. That way I would have minimal overheads. I don't want to put up my prices but unless I do it will be the end for MBM sadly. Anyhow, enough of my problems!
I kinda figured that costs would be tough on a small one man miniature company and a 9% profit really almost doesn't justify putting all the work into it. I hope that MBM hangs on, but can completely understand if you have to end MBM. Keeping my fingers crossed that there is some way to keep MBM going. Would resin models be a cheaper way to go (production wise) or are they too much of a hassle to make sure they mould correctly?
