Title: New miniatures
Post by: Manic _Miner on February 07, 2016, 03:24:14 AM
 It is way beyond time i got the new miniatures released.Money has been a big issue but i am now starting to sell off some of my miniatures collection to fund getting more stuff released.

 To that end here are the miniatures which i have waiting to release.

 I hope this gives people some good units for there games.

 The miniatures have seperate weapon hands so it would be easy to put other weapons or standards onto them.Might have to get a standard done,or a new figure to give more variety.

 Please let me know what you think.

 Cheers

 I think i will do a pre-order on them for the forum members.That way i can do the miniatures for £2.50 each before they go on the website for £3.00 for the troopers and £3.50 for the Leaders.

 Do you think this sounds okay?

 Once they are on the website that will be the prices of them.

They look great!  did you have a particular Chronopia faction/unit in mind when designing these?

when you say the weapons are interchangeable....do you mean the weapons specifically are separate pieces to be glued to the hands?  or are the arms+weapon one single piece.  so to swap out for a new weapon you'd have to do some surgery to remove the original weapon from the hand?

what about the ones holding the shields?  I would assume that shield arm + shield are part of the main body mold?

 The hands with the weapons are seperate to the arms.That way you can add hands with weapons from other miniatures.No need for surgery ;).The shields are seperate and dont have the hands attached.

 These were done to go with the Axemen which i hope help fill out a few places in peoples collection.

 I have had a reply from my mould maker and the waiting time is 3-4 weeks for new moulds.

 So the question now is do i ask for them to get done and say in three weeks time take orders?

I'll call it! They are the long needed alternative for wolf scouts and wolf legion. As we all know if you are looking for wolf scouts you are in for a quest. I have made friends around the world finding mine!

I am looking forward to you pulling the trigger on the molds but with all things do it when it is right for you because we all want you to continue to make great alternative models. I also think you should look at some alternative hands like a banner or maybe fighting claw left hand gauntlet?

I would love to see a dual claw wielding dwarf!

 They are to help fill in for the Wolf Clan faction.

 Dual claw wielding Dwarf you say got him done already ;).He will be getting a production mould done too.Got a master one to send away to get painted.

 As for alternative hands i would like to get more sculpts done to fill out other units and have musicians and standards done for the units too.The more variety the better i think.

  Going to bite the bullet and get the new moulds done.Will send the go ahead tomorrow.That way people can start to get sorted for the release and pre-order.

Is the dual claw dwarf an order of vengeance mini?  When I get the vulture marksman I bought from you painted up I'll post it.

 The dual claw Dwarf is for the Bloodbone faction ;).

 Looking forward to seeing your take on the Vulture marksman.

So far he is based and primed.  Here is is between two other dwarves to show how natural he looks between them.  I love how the swords are comparable in size!

If you ever need suggestions on which models to tackle next, I will be happy to give my $0.02
