Upcoming Price Hike

It's a bit of an odd title, given that this is still a personal hobby project, and "prices" are just what I charge for sharing limited surplus figures with the rest of you, but there's only so much space available for a title in this blog format.

Anyway, for a couple years now I've shared castings of my private figure ranges at a cost that, at the time, seemed fair to you and allowed me to keep going without this service adding to the financial weight of the project. However, back then, I didn't expect my project to expand like it has and it has gotten quite big indeed. So big that it's getting too big for my hobby budget to support it all AND keep the full range available on request.

Coupled to the fact that both moulding and metal costs have gone up quite a bit since this project started (we've often heard this from actual miniature companies, but it's true), I have to either slim down the project and retire parts of it, or adapt the pricing structure for the existing figures so that I can still share some with fellow miniature enthusiasts.

So, because I know the frustration of discovering a set of figures I like, only to find out that they were a limited edition and near impossible to get, I'm going to try and go with the second approach and work out the costs again.

Now there are two ways this could go (feel free to share your thoughts on this):
1) Upping the figure cost overall, while keeping the tiered discounts (these are largely based on the fact it's less hassle to sort and pack multiples of the same, than smaller batches)
2) Keeping the base prices largely the same (with possible exceptions) but scrapping the tiered discounts.

Changes will take effect from April 1st (2014).

Cheers

Renaissance Zombie Halfling Greens

A band of halflings died in cursed lands under the most horrible torture possible for a halfling, so terrible it animated their soulless husks and brought them back from the dead. These halflings died HUNGRY...


Sculpted by Mick Darpa, these zombie halflings are always hungry and will form a shambling horde that stops at nothing to snack on your limbs or brains. The ultimate goal is to have, over time, a set of zombie versions of each race in my private project, including dwarfs, goblins, humans, sea elves and maybe more.

The Choker:

The Reacher:


The Split Personality:


The Snacker:


The Dancer (This is Thriiiiillllleeeeer):

Sea Elf Command Greens

It's been a while without update for the elves, but here is a preview of 4/5 of the Core Infantry Command set. Sculpting courtesy of Mark Evans as usual.

First, the first of two champion figures, A Sea Elf Captain with interchangeable head (4 head options will be supplied in the set). This one was inspired by the Man With No Name (hence the poncho):

The second champion comes with separate head, separate shieldhand and alternate weapon arms (sword or axe). This one looks rather dynamic, in contrast to the more static pose of the first one. Also shown, one of the additional head variants (with helmet):



Another favourite in this set is the female fifer. The images speak for themselves, really:

 Last one for these previews (there is another musician that I will show later), is the standard bearer, shown here with the optional standard pole toppers. The latter have a unifying nautical theme (these are Sea elves after all).

Halfling Archer And Command Greens

Some updates with the last of the Halfling core infantry sets, sculpted by Juan Montano.

First, the finished singlepart archers:


Secondly, the command set. A mix of singlepart and multipart figures.

Halfling Captain with warhammer:


Halfling Captain with greatsword and interchangeable head option:


Standard bearer with interchangeable hand (open or beermug), head and standard top (rooster or pig):


Musician n° 1 (singlepart), fifer:


Musician n° 2 (singlepart), drummer:


The separate bits:
- 3 heads that fit on the captain with greatsword and standard bearer bodies
- an alternate standardpole hand that can turn any of the initial multipart rank and file set into an alternate standardbearer
- 2 top icons for the standard poles (rooster and pig)
- a bottle, open hand, and beermug hand for the standard bearer body


Once these are with me, I will have them mastermoulded and then we can start cranking out the productionmoulds from the mastercastings for all the sets.

Drunken Halfling Bard Green

Still on holiday hiatus, but that doesn't mean I can't show you a small preview of another model to be added to the project in the upcoming halfling reboot.

A drunken halfling bard, sculpted by MickDarpa, that will go well with the rank and file sculpted by Juan Montaño.

This Blog is Closed for the Holidays

As it reads on the tin, with the Holidays almost upon us, postal trafic being what it is and a large workload getting in the way of other things, I'm taking a break until the New Year is here.

That is all, carry on...
