I like the newer models and I'm thinking about buying the executioner model, cause it's a good price. Anyone bought anything from these guys before?

In terms of the models, are these hand scuplted or are they built on a computer and then 3D printed? I'd love to know the method, because it looks like the use the 3D printer model.

It's come up before. These guys use 3D printing (as their FAQ confirms).

Those look good, provided they do them in 54mm.

Anyone bought any? It seems like a competitive price for what they are, really nice models.

The look good, does anyone know about the quality of their 3d printing?

They actually have a comparison page (http://www.terragnosis.co.uk/comparisson.shtml). Some of the details look a little "soft" to me, but looking around at some of their other galleries, I have to say I'm rather impressed by some of the other pictures.

Still not razor sharp detail, but 3D printing tech has certainly come a long way over the last few years.

It looks good, but as you say, it could be sharper, I wonder what 3d printing will be like in a couple of years.
