So who is currently carrying the Venexia Ottoman range..

Venexia no longer exists, Vexillia UK have sold out, and I understood sergeant major in the US now carried them, but looking at sgmm.biz I can't see them anywhere?

All help much appreciated.

Look under their Bloody Day 15mm scroll down and you will see ottomans, not sure if they are the Venexia range.

They are here: link

The other Venexia lines are still being fixed. The purchase came with no molds, and master figures that were made with some sort of solder in the metal mix. The first masters that went into the mold maker melted. I have another company which is currently making room temperature molds of the masters, 1 figure at a time, hand pouring new master, and cleaning those up with a sculptor to get something that can be used to make production molds.

This is taking much longer than I would have liked, and more money as well. It has been about 15 months since I bought the line, and so far, only the Turks are back in production. I believe the Italian Wars will be up by the end of this calendar year, and Louis to follow sometime after that. Then the 28mm lines later in 2014 if I am lucky.

@SMPress
Do yo have an outlet in the UK yet?, I'm after some of your ex Feudal Casting figures?

SMPress, thanks for that. You can expect an order next month once I have figured out what I wil actually need. I bought enoght for a DBA + sized army from Vexillia UK some time back, and finally painting the, decided I want to expand them into a DBMM sized army.

@ Jarrovian, No, I don't. I would like to, but haven't found an interested enough party yet. Came close twice, but they both ended up having money issues which cancelled the deals…

@ Khusrau, sounds good. They are really nice figures. I just wish the transition had been smoother…
