I think it`s better to watch their minis while they are still greens:

scrolling down this page, like others i wasn't fond of the models. The paintjobs and photos really don't help either. But Seaman is right, the greens are much nicer, i wonder if some of the detail is lost in the casting process? Is it true that the molds do have a certain life expectancy or usage expectancy?

@Arctica: yes, but usually a good mold is able to get you 1000+ casts iirc so either their moldmaker sucks or doesn't use the right materials.

it has to be poor painting, take a look at HockeyPlayer, no shades, no highlighting. but such companies have their mision - here they create lots of funny minis for fantasy football

well, i can understand that small company does not have resources to get a good studio painter. but, in such case, wouldn't it better to present pics of greens/whites only, without any paintjob?
