I don't really think you can expect WA to be historically correct. WA's track record for historical accurancy is pretty patchy. WA's Late Romans are meant to be 284-476AD but many of the helmets on...

@Streetgang These are Amazing!! I am inspired! How did the other Copplestone characters, such as the Orc captains or fell beast compare up?

@Mithril2098 yeah, I've never been too fond of "anime" armor and its many impracticalities. it's funny though, I never drew that connection!  I think one of the issues is also that fantasy kn...

@timbus the thirteenth i'm not surprised the barons war kits eend up looking archaic compared to plate armored figures. the barons war game is centered around the 13th century, which is a good 200 ...

Wow, the Mauler is THICK boy. Curious if I can make one longer with some neat mid-section 🤔

I've done quite a bit of toying around with the italian wars knight kits, and it's definitely the best you can get for a fantasy knight. The only issue is they're so tiny! Most of the time I'm tryi...

Wow! So it's not just the exact design I wanted, it's also the exact right size! It's kinda insane how perfect the timing is on these kits. Thanks for the pictures.

@Mithril2098 so its a "not-rhino" without looking like a "not-rhino", thats great. I am using it for non-40k purposes. 

@timbus the thirteenth well, I don't know what to say since I actually can and have made  near-future/cyberpunk like models out of ww2 kits (WA ones at that), though I admit it isn't easy and ...

Really looking forward to mine and getting a chance to experiment with them (but sadly no shipping yet in the UK/RoW regain)

@timbus the thirteenth  as for the mauler.. https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/1980/812570.page apparently it's about the size of the Genstealer cult goliath truck/rockcrusher...

 the problem is that I am an absolute nutjob for medieval and medieval-fantasy armor. so to me, it's obvious that historicals don't work! but I don't think it matters much to someone who isn't...

Once I'm done with my current set of projects, I might need to pull the trigger on that army box. damn if they aren't some gorgeous models. Btw, would someone with the kits mind giving me some mea...

@Yronimos Whateley I set cavalry as my deafult extra sprue (I got extra sprues of everything damned related but I had 8 or 10 cavalry sprues that I was planing on converting to bikers, which I may ...

@Yronimos Whateley well, Late Roman, Viking era, medieval and Reni sets often are great for fantasy gamers since the basic default fantasy setting most wargamers think of is Europe from that year 4...

@danydag Its not a discussion it was a contest that WA has not finished the first round of voting for yet (look over the main webpage news articles in the top left corner), they have not posted up ...

i'm glad the Mauler went for a more generic scifi style, instead of the heavily worn look of the rest fo the army. it'll make it a lot more popular since it can be used with all sorts of scifi sett...

I hope we didn't break the Sprue Games by over-criticizing them - I was a bit critical of the submissions in some categories in general (without calling any submission in particular out), but I was...

Not to distract too mucy from a full-on fantasy knight set (a "death knight" set might be the best option there), but for most fantasy knight purposes, the Baron's War knights seem like a fine star...

I haven't seen too many topics on The Damned, and no reviews here yet, so I thought I'd open a topic up for these sets, since my crowdfund reward sets just arrived. Short version:  most of th...

@Brian Van De Walker they're actually industrial grade, usually used for stuff like spray painting, spray insulation, etc., and in the recent decade have been used heavily by protestors around the ...

I don’t want to advertise for other miniatures manufacturers on the WA forum, but there’s a few modern/near future/sci-fi (both in metal and plastic) figures that could take advantage o...

Just realized that even if my sprue game gambit fails, those new egyptians are looking awfully shirtless.....

@Brian Van De Walker Sorry I missed that. Do you have a link to the discussion?

Yknow, I swear they showed up in vox populi at some point. but now that that's mysteriously vanished, I'm not really sure where they've ended up! If you're desperate I imagine it wouldn't be too ha...

Fair enough, I'm thinking of the perry agincourt miniatures where the neck is attached to the head. I seem to remember 28mm agincourt guys popping up in the sprue game, which wouldn't be my top opt...

this might require more effort than it's worth, but I wonder if, with the new standard proportions system, it could be possible to make it truly generic? like you have one sprue of "near future upg...

@Mithril2098 That sounds like something that should be in a proper set, like first responders or terrorists.

@timbus the thirteenth I get what your saying, but given my experience with tiny plastic knights, the simple way to do that on the manufacturing end with historical knight heads is to sculpt the ch...

@Brian Van De Walker Indeed.   @Mark Dewis I literally gave weta workshop design as an example, spare me your snide commentary.  

@danydag its been talked about already and why don't we wait to see how the sprue game plays out shall we?

addendum.. for unhelmeted gasmask heads, they should include some 'respirator only' versions. where they are wearing those half mask ones that just go over the mouth and nose, rather than the full ...

You point out to some interesting stuff here. Don’t just think of things that could be added to the figures but on bases or used with other scenery. They could be used as objectives markers i...

I could certainly get behind such a thing. I wouldn't have thought of cans and bottles per se, but the bottles would also make nice molotovs, for example! I've never seen any bits for electric to...

Hello, Would WA be interested in producing a plastic set for present days near future/Sci-Fi accessories? It could contain backpacks, pouches, holsters, cans and beer bottles, small barrels, lapt...

Fair enough, the only thing would point out is that most houndskull bascinets tend to come with integrated neck chainmail if we were to be historically accurate. It's an iconic helmet in the fantas...

@timbus the thirteenth I don't know why but that is funny.

@timbus the thirteenth get what your saying, hence heavy use "" around those words since animals are not good or bad persay. The reality is animals with triangle shapes tend to be poisionus/venomus...

@timbus the thirteenth I would just focus on pure fantasy aspects if it is possible to imagine just fantasy armor and not real world hunderd years war armor, etc. Leave historical for historical se...

@timbus the thirteenth Thanks! Yeah they definitely work well together I think. The bulldogs for me have a lot of their charm in the head options. The Brodies in particular are very nicely put toge...

these guys look really nice! i never cared too much for either the bulldogs or sneakfeet, and somehow when combined they look glorious. kitbashings a wonderful thing. also welcome to the forum, or ...

Any news on a potential Bulldogs command and heavy weapons? I saw there were raptor riders for cavalry as STLs but wasn't sure if there was any progress on the command dudes. 

Another project of mine that I started quite a while ago was to do some Winter War/Continuation War Finns. The goal was to have a small force for bolt action, and unfortunately, I've still not been...

Hi all! Long time lurker first time poster, I've been brainstorming combining the bulldogs and Sneakfeet kit for a while now. the mix of uniform types is pretty compatible and while I know a lot of...

I was thinking a lot about fantasy knights recently, and what I might want out of a modular kit for them. This is definitely something that exists, but most of the kits are either very early 2000s ...

Weirdly enough, they show up on the beastmen kits as little tails. They don't look great on said beastmen, imo, but if you leave them off the poor satyrs have a giant hole in their butt.

I dunno, I always take a bit of offense at people seperating animals into "good" and "bad". I'm personally very fond of beetles, bats, and the like, even if they have negative connotations on heral...

@Piisami@Yronimos Whateley Actually its pretty easy to make a "camp good guy" looking weird riding beasts, just make them "round, cute and friendly" but most importantly "friendly" (the Wizards rid...

It always surprises me that century-old pulp literature, even older fairy tales, and illustrations from the Victorian likes of Arthur Rackham, Walter Crane, W.W. Denslow, John R. Neill, or Sydney S...

It's not the first time I've seen these ponytail bits, but I don't remember off the top of my head all the places I've seen it.  I'm mostly sure the female Frostgrave, Stargrave, and Deadman'...
