Hi all,
Firstly an apology, this post more properly belongs in "Marketplace", but I hope the membership and the Editor will forgive me for reasons that will become apparent below.
I've sculpted a set of three 28mm Shaolin Monks (though they could perhaps pass for Japanese or Korean monks at a stretch), and I'm auctioning them on eBay.
The genesis of these figures lies in the loss of a friend. About eight weeks ago an instructor at the Taekwondo club I attend, died after a struggle with cancer. He had been ill for just over a year, and it was a big shock. He was only 40.
This weekend our club is participating in a charity walk up Slieve Donnard, one of the Mourne Mountains.
I was having real problems getting sponsorship, (working at home and being very busy put a cramp on seeing your friends and family!) so I hit on the idea that I could more usefully contribute by sculpting up some figures and auction them off. I wanted them to have a martial arts theme, but thought the subject of Shaolin might be more useful to gamers than modern Taekwondo practitioners.
Unfortunately due to time constraints I had to scale back my original plans from six to three.
All the profits will be going to Marie Curie Cancer Care, I'll not benefit myself, so I hope that given the cause I'll be forgiven for straying from the "Marketplace" board.
Anyway I hope you like them and hopefully the buyer will cast them up and make them available.
thanks for having a look.
