i wondered were mig would land when he left mig productions...never fought it would be with the vallejo gang.now that comparison mig productions did with vallejo pigments makes no sense at all
!
I don't think the comparison postings were instigated by Mig and in my opinion was a piece of poorly judged marketing on their (Mig Productions, the company) part.
He has stated in the past working with the folks at Vallejo and if I remember correctly did express his disappointment of them bringing out pigments. Obviously they've renewed their connection without any problem.
Although the company is called Mig Productions I've a feeling his functions and influence within the company became less than he was prepared to accept, hence his departure. But that's just speculation on my part.
I don't believe he is working as an employee of Vallejo but as an independent modeller who's skills, knowledge and experience are being hired by many modelling companies, Vallejo, and Tamiya to name but two.
He's got a blog which you may find interesting.
http://migjimenez.blogspot.com/ From what I've read despite the change of circumstances he's found a happier place to be than he's been in for a long time, and seems to be enjoying his modelling more than ever, which is good news.
