LSP_Kevin Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 They're definitely still around, so I'd say they're having technical issues. Possibly even a website upgrade. I'll contact Roy and confirm. Kev BiggTim, John1 and scvrobeson 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure exactly where but their packaging says "Made with Pride in the USA".... For those that have never checked them out, I highly recommend hitting the website once it's back up. They have a wide range of resin and decals (unfortunately, many of the decals are now OOP). His stuff is of very high quality and the prices are very reasonable. D.B.

Granger Davis Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Roy is an all-around good guy, too. I've bought several items from him, and he has on a couple of occasions directly given advice or input for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Roberts Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Got lots of his Spitfire (and Mustang) bits - brilliant quality. I'm always looking out for any of his new releases. PR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnarg Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Roy is not just one of the "good people" he is "Great". I have shared a few IPMS meetings with him over the years and he has been extremely kind in sharing his information and resources. His craftsmanship is just amazing. He knows the details and follows through to create products that make a big difference in turning your model into a true replica of the original plane. I hope he gets the website back up soon, so you can see (and buy) his amazing creative output. Tnarg Lothar and John1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
