As many of you know, Keith Strasser's work is pretty good, but it's almost impossible to collect any of them. I've heard he is very busy, so he has little time to supply us with them. However, ataraxus and I have been thinking if Keith were to give his molds to Mike Evans, and let Dan sell the castings (I'm sure you and Keith could work out a deal, right Dan? ;) ), would anyone else here be interested in getting any?

Here is Keith's web site, so you can see his dinos:

Keith has several pieces I like, it's a shame they are so hard to get a hold of.

Sounds great to me, but I've had no luck in reaching him yet. Did someone else hear from him recently?

It's been awhile since I last heard from him. I think Mike from PT is able to reach him..he sells his Coelophysis kit on ebay every once in awhile.

yep, i got three days ago three kits from him.
i asked two times what you think about the idea to give the molds and the shippings to (for example) Mike Evans. but he never answered to this question. so i asked now third and last. i very hope he says "yes"

It's understandable that an artist would want to protect their work, and leaving it in the hands of a stranger can be a lot to ask. I've seen it happen a few times. If the artist wants to be the only person in charge of his models, we ultimately have to respect that decision.

of course...
i told him that i also respect this when he says "no", i would not make pressure. but i also think that he understand that it is pitty when they exist but are unavailable.
So, let`s hope the best.
