The Rules:

  • Actually PRACTICE your hobby.  Just do it because it makes you happy and don't worry about it.  Geeze . . .
  • But DON'T BUY RECASTS.  Artists need support to keep doing it and recasts are typically crappy anyway.
  • If you want to use some of our images, cool by me . . . just credit the source as www.creaturescape.com
  • If you want to link to us, knock yourself out.  Use our banner if you like and contact us so we can return the favor.
  • If you find an error, problem, bad link or foolish statement, let us know, but don't be a butthead.
  • Support our sponsors because that is how we stay afloat.
  • Support horror hosts at www.horrorhosts.com by buying their products
  • Support rockabilly radio at www.rockabillyradio.net by giving them money
  • Fight the power, wash behind your ears and for heaven sake, if you are drunk and surfing the web right now, take a minute to think about how cool monster models are and go immediately to our sale page and buy a kit!
