Origins?

Anybody know the company that produced this?
It is an etched brass model.
I want to say it is Alkem, because I've bought a bunch of stuff from him, but his website doesn't show it.

Well that's unfortunate, seeing as how TC2 appears to be out of business.

 

Website says on hiatus, so may return at some point.

 

I seem to remember trying to purchase some more of his products about five or six years ago and TC2 was "On hiatus" even then. so I'm not holding out much hope for a rebooted TC3.
