Hi Kevin,

thank you for linking to this, if you look at the other (none HACME) TFL buildings you will note that these were commissioned by Rich to match those. In doing so I attempted to make sure they look like French Houses, Dormer windows etc.

I think you are mistaking a similarity of original source, for copying.

One last point, I note your plans are for 20mm, where these buildings are done to 28mm, do your plans scale up to a footprint of 7" by 4", a door height of 1 1/4" and a door width of 5/8"?

If they do not do so prcisley I would be obliged if you retract the accusation of plagurism please.

If you wish to discuss this further please I would be happy to do so by PM here or email.

Yours

Stephan @ Rapier

Kevin,

You are joking, aren't you? Are you seriously suggesting that you've copyrighted the most basic two-up/two-down French house/shop design?

Mark,

yes he was.

I'd better warn Mme Gondree next time I see her that his lawyers might be calling…

Good lord. Some people.

I've recently copyrighted "hedgerows" so you lot better watch out!

LOL.

Looks like I missed the excitement…

There's still a little bit of the excitement here:

A complete non-issue imo.

@Rapier Miniatures, whether I believe they were copied or not, I probably over re-acted by making it public, so I apologise for not contacting you directly. I'm going to leave it at that!

I deleted the posts I could delete and have closed down SimpleScenics.com which is why all the links are now dead.

If there's a moderator here then please edit/delete my posts on these two news pages, and delete this account.
