See ya guys

[I was... Mongoose Adrian]

Well as of today Mongoose Adrian no longer. I as others in the company was made redundant today.

For you that don't know who or what I did, it was me who designed (well OK I didn't 'design' the Abrams but you know what I mean ) the vehicles for BfEvo and gave all the prototypes a nice lick of paint .
Previous to that I was the painter for the SST range, and latterly I designed, sculpted and painted ships in the ACTA range.
I enjoyed making these models a great deal and it still heartens me when I hear peoples sentiments about the Shadow for example. Making working engineering drawings from grainy photographs is good fun .
I would have loved the helicopters and other tanks I did to have made full production too but sadly it wasn't to be.

Now I prostitute myself LOL. I'm back to freelance painting and modelling now for a while so any commissions guys ... Website at the bottom of the post .

Cheers and all the best

I'm really sorry to hear this.
I want to thank you for your contributions and wish you luck in the future.

Good luck Adrian! I remember when you were brought on board, your painting gave the models a touch of class and professionalism. I remember thinking "alright, now Mongoose is looking good!" ~S

Thanks for your efforts, Adrian.
I'm sure you'll have no problems keeping your brushes wet.


Ignoring the gender inaccuracy, here is my salute to ya-

Well, never got to know you personally however got to know your work real well! You did awesome work with my favorite game, the same game I decided to join the MI for.

Any chance of you continuing your work thru the OGL producing new minis for Modern Combat?

Take care bud!

 

[Greg Smith]

I'm sorry to hear that. All the best for your future endeavours.

 

[Hiromoon]

Best wishes!


A pint of beer on me next time you're state side, okay?

 

[Captain_Nemo]

Good Luck and Good Hunting Adrian!

Thank you for your work

 

[Bubba Ho-Tep]

Well that sucks, but I guess with no minis, it was inevitable. Good luck.

Sorry to hear this Adrian.

You mentioned others, we know Old Bear was made redundant also. How many others got a P45 today?

[Dorb]

Many thanks. Looks like some of your work is what got me involved this in the first place. Good luck and game on! :wink:

 

[Lorcan Nagle]

Best of luck in the future for you and old bear...

Sorry to see you go mate, best of luck for the future.

Does this mean we will be seeing more of you over at the COnfrontation tournaments and on the CONFederation?

It's a great shame Adrian, but you did a damn good job and I hope it was all smooth and nice.

See you around my man.
