Give it another week or two, if they dont turn up, I will give you my set. U need them more than me, I dont have a Dr Who but you do.

Everything is well behind with the xmas postal traffic. check your address detail with spacies etc.

P.S - my set DID turn up yesterday from Spacies. Thankyou Spacies. PM sent to thank Spacies for following thru.

Also, I have deleted my previous posts as per my promise to Spacies/Nino when my decals arrived.

Studley, I have been told by spacies today that your decals have 1 million percent been sent as well.  I dont think it will be much longer.

** Also, for anyone elses interest, spacies and I are on good terms as apx 8 or so people have recieved their decals now. I have told spacies that I fully support his future artwork/decal efforts and I have provided a few ideas to spacies to help out in the future with decal distribution. I suggested he might want to contact someone like Greg from RTBB and organise for the bulk decals to be shiped to Greg for example, and let Greg take orders n sell them once Greg has stock in hand. That way, spacies only has one customer to please and this will make life alot easier for spacies and the end user.

As Greg is the only current approved AP sponsor, I suggested Greg from RTBB as an example, but spacies is ofcourse free to choose Mark C, or Bikecity or Bumper Action, Marco Specialties, Bay Area, or all of them etc. Anyway, it was a suggestion I made to spacies as an idea to help spacies out so he can continue to provide good artwork etc, after he takes a well deserved xmas/new year break etc.   The Dr Who decals are excellent. Perhaps spacies can hook up with a distribution company in 2012 and it will be well worth the percentage that the distributor gets from spacies, for the product to flow smoothly. Everyone wins.  

Does anyone else think this is a good idea ?

Damien - your decals will be tied up in Aussie Post. Others have received theirs and I've heard GREAT reports on the quality of the workmanship. Well done Malcolm 

Just be a little more patient mate - they will come.

It may be a good idea to you but I need a break mate, lol, but thanks anyway. Like I said in the PM to you earlier, I am just going to do some small projects for a while which I have under control and I can tell you that it make things very easy when you find a good manufacturer! I have no problems designing stuff but finding a decent manufacturer is key to success if you don't have the machinery. I really like it when you give someone a file and they ring you the next day saying the samples are ready! And the samples are top notch! Anyone have a TAF ;)

I have had some shit replies about me giving up the art especially because I had almost finished a couple of full decal projects for a reseller in the USA. I read a comment saying 'no-one cares what you do', that really got under my skin and well I am afraid you are wrong because now two sets have been canned until someone else does them. The reseller wants the files for someone else to take over as he has EOI on his website. No way! I will have the last laugh on that one thank you very much. Please don't think I am being selfish or an ass because I am not like that, but having time out made me realise how much I was doing for basically nothing, being taken advantage of and very, very little appreciation. Apologies there.

Studley, sorry to hear yours haven't arrived. I will chase them up tomorrow but I can swear on my own grave that they have been sent to your PO Box supplied. I still have the receipts here so I will take that in to the shop as well. Please let me know if they don't show up tomorrow. Not much I can do buddy but I will let you know tomorrow arvo what they say. I still have two sets missing the headbox, I will see if I can get some of those printed tomorrow as a back-up.

I have also turned my focus to playfield restoration and I am really enjoying it! I like the fact that I am hands on brush instead of mouse :)





I think I have it sussed and I knew I was right when I told my Mum that working on Hot Rods when I was younger would pay off one day.

Happy Spaceman :)

Is there any licensing issues here?  Love the work but shouldn't the whole saga have been more discreet? 

[Olivia_jason]

playfield looks good.

Rads, Without rehashing the whole saga, it was kept discreet for many months with private emails etc that went unanswered for months on end with no deliveries or refunds.
The only way things got sorted when was the thing wasnt discreet and made public which wasnt what we wanted to do, but all other options had failed. Its all fixed now, and the past is in the past.

Also, I am not sure who sent spacies the "I dont care what you do" message, but it certainly wasnt me. We all (well 99percent) of us do care what you do because the Dr Who decals would not have proved to be so popular and wouldnt have turned out so good without the talent and effort required to make them.
I was a frustrated detractor because of no product, but the second those decals arrived, I went back to being appreciative which is why I ordered the decals originally.

Take a break spacies, grab that valiant charger you spoke of, do that driving trip in the car, and start fresh in 2012 and do what u want, not what anyone else says.
No ones perfect, espescially me, so who cares about yesterdays stuff up. Its the future that matters.
