Wow. Incredibly sad news. So many wonderful ranges sculpted by Mike. I loved his artistic style that was very evident in his work. Some of the ones I consider favorites were his 15mm South American Wars of Liberation and his 28mm Sci-Fi pulp figures. |

A good sculptor and painter, an excellent person to game with, a great mate and just a really nice bloke. You left far too soon, Mike. link Wild bird tamer (actually, he used to bribe them with food). link Trying to work out out to fit a Churchill into his excess baggage allowance in Cairns, last year. link Some of the last figures he painted. |

I'll second Dal's comments. Mike was a genuine craftsman who could turn his hand to any form of model making and sculpting. He was also good company, and very generous with his time and support of this learning sculptor. Thanks Mike, you'll be missed. |

RIP. He was very respected as a sculptor and a person. |
