This is the final issue of the 6 I subscribed for. I have to say I was disappointed. The magazine is superbly produced but a 6 issue subscription takes up too much room on my iPod to leave it there as a reference source and I find most of the articles don't appeal to me, as I have said before. The show reports have been overtaken by on line reports for quality of photography and sheer volume of figures shown. Please don't take this as criticism of your efforts. Just letting you know why I won't be renewing.
Good luck
Colin
Hi Colin,
No offence taken, at the end of the day, we try our best to offer what we think works, and we respect criticism and your rightful decision not to renew the subscription, has been great having you with us.
As for the show reports, I agree that the quantity and immediacy of the photo online can not be beaten, but we think that the quality is still a plus on our side, we do take lot of care on our pics with a proper set-up and we avoid "on the fly" pictures taken with the model still on display.
But your view which is common with many people, that I fully understand, is the reason why many newspaper/magazine/publisher are shutting down, you can't compete with free and immediate content over the web.
I do use and abuse the web as well but I do want publishers to survive, that's why I buy and support all the magazine I can afford, from Figurines, to Figure international to more modelling ones.
It's my personal view I hope you won't take it as a criticism.
As for the space on your device, each magazine is only around 40mb not a lot and you can delete the older one, and download them again (free of charge of course) when you need it.
Anyway, thank you again and we hope to see you again anytime soon.
