1st Corps is owned by Brothers Simon and Michael Curtis. We have been wargaming and collecting for over 20 years and are fascinated by all periods.
Our aim is to offer products of the highest quality, detail and authenticity that are also great value and backed up by fast and friendly customer service.
Every figure comes complete with all the weapons, shields etc it needs.
Variation We try to put as much of it in our packs as possible our figure packs contain upto 8 different figures.
Command packs and standard packs all contain an even number of figures, no more annoying missing or left over figures.
We cast all our products here in Yorkshire in lead free pewter.
We live in Snaith, a small rural market town located 20 miles south of York in the north of England.
Simon- is the full time member of the team. He does the mold making, casting, dispatch and is responsible for some of the figures you can see on this site. . When not busy with that lot he likes going to the cinema, having a pint and game of darts down at the local hostelry. He also enjoys being taken for a walk by his golden retrievers, Rebel and Cadet
Michael- is also responsible for many of the painted figures on the site as well as product planning and dispatching orders. Mick swears he has no time for anything else! But we know he likes to travel and have a beer down the local hostelry playing darts, and has even been seen down the local gym the next day trying to make amends!

Antediluvian Miniatures is a small company producing 28mm scale miniatures inspired by retro science fiction, fantasy and niche genres. It is the brainchild of Figure Painter Andrew Taylor, who wanted to produce a range of high quality unique figures from his favorite genres. The core values of Antediluvian Miniatures are; Make people happy by making cool Toys. Andrew is the brains of the operation, with the insights into gaming, lost worlds and a head brimming with ideas for more miniatures, he is assisted by Potter & Artist Vicky Stonebridge who handles the boring grown up stuff like admin. Their trusty collie dog, ‘Lobo’ has the role of quality control, security and company moral. The team is based in the North West Scottish highlands, where the cold, wet climate is offset by inspiring scenery, a loch view and a friendly local village post office who handles shipping of hordes of dinosaurs and demons with great efficiency.
So what do we do? Andrew comes up with the concepts and ideas, then commission’s brilliant sculptors such as John Dennet, Matthew Bickley, Shane Hoyle, Iain Mountain, Paul Hicks, Andrew May and others. We then get these put into moulds by third party companies, then cast up and sent to us so we can surround ourselves with all the lovely metal and resin before sharing the love through our web sales. You can sometimes find Antediluvian Miniatures at shows, kindly stocked by Crooked Dice, and Studio Miniatures.

Grekwood was the name of a roleplay game character created by my brother Gareth K Sutherwood in 1999. His full name was "Grekwood Thegar" and was a semi anagram of Gareth's full name.
A few years later, Gareth started using the name "Grekwood" as an online alias with his own personality traits such as a strange obsession with bananas! Grekwood grew to be loved by many he met, whether online or in person. Gareth later went on to create his own universe known as "Grekworld", where he had his own special ops teams and so forth!
On Formspring in early 2010, Gareth was asked about his name and after explain it, he said "So where next for the Grekwood name? who knows but it's evolving and becoming a semi-brand and a trademark extension of me.
In July 2011, my brother Gareth very sadly passed away. He will always be missed and loved by everyone who knew him.
Grekwood Miniatures (or at least before it became Grekwood Miniatures) was a hobby which was taken to the next level in April 2012. We aim to offer our own unique miniatures and accessories, along with numerous items from other companies to compliment them to help make your miniatures look as great as they possibly can be.
As "Grekwood" played a large part of my brother's life, the best way to honour his memory is to keep his name going. Therefore by creating "Grekwood Miniatures", the name Grekwood will continue to be known throughout this great hobby.

My real Name is Paul Ward, I was born in 1961, (I share my birthday with Nelson), I'm married with one daughter and five cats. I live in Woking in the south of England, the town where the Martians landed in War of the Worlds.
I work as a Teaching Assistant in a local School, a job I really enjoy as I get lots of time off and don’t have to work weekends. It’s also a fairly worthwhile thing to do, teaching the young. I get all the fun of being a teacher and none of the boring planning and marking stuff.
Previously I’ve had many jobs. I’ve been the manager of both a bookshop and a comic shop, I’ve worked as an illustrator and designer for many years and owned my own games shop. I’ve worked in factories and on building sites and for the software industry as a game designer.
My interests include games (obviously), not just wargaming but RPGs board games and video games too. I read a lot, mostly history for the factual stuff, I like first hand accounts especially; and a mixture of genres for fiction. I used to collect comics but nowadays I can’t be bothered. I occasionally buy a couple that look interesting but my collection has shrunk to include mainly the ones I read in the 60s and 70s when I was starting to read them and everything was new and exciting.
There are a few later gems and quite a lot of European stuff left in too.
I like films and have a fairly large collection of Blu-Rays and dvds.
I bought my first miniature in 1978, the Death Dealer figure by Ral Partha, and my lead addiction started from then. Previously I had owned many plastic Cowboys, Indians and US Cavalry made by Timpo and Britons and their like. I also had a well used set of 1/32 Airfix WWII figures. I'm currently rebuilding all these old collections in lead. Updates on my progress will appear on this site regularly of course.
I began Matakishi's Tea House in January 2006 as a way to chronicle my projects and it quickly grew in size and popularity with over 4.5 million visitors in it's 11 years of existence. Now, in 2017, It's got a new home here with a new hosting service and new ways to present my work.
