BROKENEAGLE'S PAINTINGS - update - stolen artwork by AMMO [14th Jan '25]

[Sharkmouth]

Ammo was to mix paint chemicals for Big Child who chose the qualities and colors for their specific lines. Ammo would get the Atom line of paints for their product lines. Supposedly, Ammo pushed Big Child out and even removed their name from the bottles when it was agreed it was a collaborative effort.

Wow...just wow. You know in the early days I use to think Mig got the bad in of the stick on his dealings but now I'm seeing him more like the bond villain of the modeling world.

They sell that elastic Uschi rigging line in 6-foot sections for 3 times what the 45-foot bobbin used to sell for. "Twatspangles" could be appropriate if I were Katie Hopkins.

It's scale modeling rated string man!

Just another nail in the AMMO coffin to persuade me to NEVER buy any of their product.

Amen! I have never trusted MiG and now, like Paul; I'm totally persuaded never to buy his products. I had the opportunity to try them for free at one of our SoCal AMPS club meetings and found them to be too overbearing for my small scale. After seeing and hearing about all this; I refuse to support such an unscrupulous individual.

Well thanks for the extra info guys, I learnt a lot more about MIG, and like some of you, I don't feel nearly as sorry for him as I used to.
As I mentioned on the call we had the other week, he pushed the date back on his Sherman and the punk dio [in his original dio book] to get it created before my 'After the battle' (we both put these dio's up on Missing Linx back in the day but his went up much later than mine) so he could steal the theme and make out that it was his creative theme and I copied.
I know I sound a bit petty on this topic but it really 'ticks me off' - you don't steal creativity and you don't backdate so you look like the creator.

 

[Steve Ski]

That's not petty at all, Ian. I'd be lookin to stick it hi and break it off, but I'm a retired Pro Rugby player, and we do things a bit differently, lol. (read, legal action)

Ya, I won't be supporting a thief, not knowingly, ever. Ruck Over, Bby!

Hey Ian, I know you're on your Tasmanian road trip but wanted to tag you on this.
Mark Felton released a video about your subject. I saw he was taking some heat lately about some info he released but I didn't dive into details. Just wanted to share with you and get your take.

Interesting video with some info[photos] that may be incorrect but overall it seems quite good.
The definition of 'The last Tiger' was what I coined with my artwork and website blogg back in 2021 for this tank, but even before that, when I started the 1/35 model build in 2014 on MA (and coined it for the thread) and then for the initial ref work for the painting in 2017. I have had an interest in this tank since I first saw the photo in Tigers in Combat 2, when I purchased it back in the late 90's, early 2000's.
Hmmm, I hadn't actually thought about that before but I am seeing this term 'The Last Tiger' used all over the place now, when talking about 323 and because it has been so long since 2014 I forgot it was me that started it.
Having said that I used that term in regards to Tiger 1's but technically he is correct when looking at Tiger 2's as he refers to the Tiger 2 as the last Tiger destroyed in Berlin..
