Unfortunately, it seems that he's keeping the pieces out of the limelight... given how rare these are, which is kind of an understatement, I can understand that (but I also want a set, too, so I did complain).
I can understand this also, fair enough,thank you for trying anyways.

By the way, I'm thinking of doing a small run of the alloy pieces, if anyone is keen?
I take it the alloy is a bit lighter in weight, I might be keen, is there much of a difference in price to bronze?
Would I be able to find out who you use for your lost wax work as I would like to try a project in aluminium.

I have seen pictures of the angels and even one under the wings, would he be able to take a side shot of one next to an item that we know by size reference like a coke can, that way he can stay anonymous.
If I have something to compare to size wise, I can have a go at sculpting one to cast from.

Hi Badges
In case you're looking at doing some aluminium casting, I've got two full bags of casting plaster. Save you having to buy any. About 40 kg all up!
Also, the local glass artists in Waverley do all their own lost wax, in case you want me to make some enquiries.

Hey Phil,
That would be fantastic, I would eventually like to set up my own small foundry to tackle bits and pieces.
If you could find out for me what they can do, I'm looking at a project helmet size in Aluminium for a different franchise sci fi helmet.

I'll try to get in to see the glass folks in the next week or so, plus next time I come past your way, I'll bring a bag of the plaster. But I might wait till you've moved into your new warehouse!
