@William Redford Brilliantly broad selection of parts making some excellent figures. 👏🏻
@William Redford Brilliantly broad selection of parts making some excellent figures. 👏🏻
@Vitor Soares the lumineth sentinels. The champion bits are doubled in the box. They give you two identical sprues and each sprue can make 4 regular guys and a champion. But has bits to make t...
@JTam While there are dino toys out there, very, very few of them are ate a good scale compared to 28mm figure. And I get it - most people seem to be okay with 'good enough', or they just want the ...
They all look great, but those elfs are amazing, I am honestly jealous. Can I ask what parts did you use?
Yeah. 30-60 lb bows are for target practice and sport in any era. 80-100 lb draw is about right. But can I just clarify one REALLY important point about bows. Physics dictates energy out cannot ex...
Bow arms will need a bit of amputation on the Irish bodies, but can't see a major problem there.
@Mark Dewis Looking forward to seeing these guys! Mysterious Squiggoth is mysterious.
I shall endeavour to post my old Feral Ork army at some point. Their Boar Boyz are mounted on Cold Ones and the Squiggoth is ... well you shall just have to see about that ;)
The top female Cannon Fodder based miniature looks good. Makes for a fine Slaneeshi possessed cultist or similar. I wonder how the Cannon Fodder bash with Genestealer Cultist bit...
Given that the Dark Age Irish and the Persians are compatible I imagine the goths kit are going to work too. If not, I'll get myself that kit over the next few years and see if the bits mix
@Blutze She'd probably scale better with Games Workshop Empire or more appropriately Bretonnian miniatures.
Makes me laugh every time....
It's an interesting idea. Working against it is the wide availability of affordable, and really quite nice dinosaur toys almost everywhere. (Barnes and Noble and Hobby Lobby spring to mind i...
Hell yes. There's some 28mm dinos around in metal, and many unscaled toys are good enough (even high quality ones like Schliech, though the most useful ones in my extensive collection are cheap vi...
The idea that there are raptor riders on the way had me thinking of saurian possibilities lately, particularly that there are no good ranges for clearly 25/28mm scaled dinosaurs out there. I recko...
I am in need of archers for my Welsh and Scots warbands (for Saga). So, my plan is to affix the bows, bow arms and quivers from the Goth box on suitable figures from the Dark Age Irish box. Anyone ...
Yeah, I add a little to the bottom of my minis that don't have integral bases to give the base a bit of contour. Usually a short bit of sprue. I use steel washers as the actual base, so sometimes I...
@JTam No, I probably worded it poorly. Your GIF shows it clearly - normally it's the full pull-back (move shell from the tube magazine into the feed and eject the spent cartridge) and push forward...
Also a pretty good fit for many pulp adventurer types. Pith helmet and heavy rifle = great white hunter. rolled up or ripped sleeve arms and tousled hair = square jawed hero. Fez head (you have spa...
I'd contact them in case your order had a problem. The article saying the shipment had arrived was posted 29 July.
Looks like halberds are a go. Hmm. How likely are drawn out fights in that edition? If most combats are decided in a single round, you might as well go for great weapons at the same price. You'l...
since it allows you to use your basing materia in a way that your mini truly sits on top of it Yeah, this is what caught my eye in this thread. Though I've always been a little intimidated by do...
Also, Filipino Pocahontas for the win! We hope Esteban de la Chin has more sense than his Americas-traveling cousin. For completeness' sake, here's the frogeaters' battle standard beare...
Dragging a captured weapon with a cavalry shako shoved jauntily on his helmet. That is so peak goblinoid. Plus, the skewed head isn't even out of place in a period look with how foppish some of ...
Alternate take. French defenders explore the surrounding tunnels, close off tunnels, and fight waves of Germans. Similar in concept to this.

Had an interesting (to me at least) idea for a WW1 box set. A game set in Fort Vaux, which was a battle inside the wider inferno of Verdun. Verdun /Fort Vaux Book Review ...
In progress group shot:
Gobbo 5 "Unit Champion": WGA Rifleman torso, WGA Goblin legs and weapons, Warlord Games French Infantry shako. He originally had the sabre from the WGA Riflemans kit. But I bu...
Looking extra sweet, I want to see what (if any) SF bits have managed to get in there (or if there's an add on sprue? i'd buy it if nessesary), i want a box with guns, a box with hand weapon...
The Daemonettes heads and arms are a perfect match size wise with the Cannon fodder girl torsos. And I had two left over elf torsos nd some other bits. So here is one with a WA conquistador armore...
Wasn't feeling Gobbo 3's helmet with plume either. I was looking over the WGA Goblin sprue and realized I could use thread with the helmet that looks like a baseball cap. The "visor" needed ...
@JTam thank you. I consider a Gundark nose art. Something Like this: I'm going to make a Flight stand with a round magnet on top. I built in a metal plate in the bottom for this purpose, so I ca...
@Vitor Soares Thank You. I was pleased with how number 3 turned out. I was less pleased with Gobbo 4 so I ripped his head apart and revised the hat/head join. Added some Napoleo...
Also, check out the crazy base for the dropship in this thread: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/68338/panzerjager-a-call-to-arms
@William Redford Thank You for the pictures. Also, Filipino Pocahontas for the win!
@Andreas Mayrhofer The 99% finished product looks amazing. Really impressive build. Excited to see the gunner installed when they are done. Are you doing a flight stand? Are you add...
@Geoff Maybury No worries. I found the Rubicon accessories sets. I like the German one with the Panzerschrecks! Those are hard to come by in 28mm. Thanks Brother.
Just to clarify, as you can see from the GIF above the rounds are still being introduced vertically, whether feed from a tube or box magazine. I've seen many conventional pump shotguns...
@Mark Dewis I'm a little confused on what you are saying here: Are you saying that racking the slide back on a conventional pump action shotgun inserts the chambered round back into the m...
Now this new GW miniature has some problems: He has evidently racked (slide back, slide forward) his boarding shotgun. However, the ejected shells from a shotgun don't dribble out.... ...
It's PROBABLY a standard pump action shotgun. The slide is being pulled to the rear. This is accomplishing: 1. If the weapon is empty pulling the slide to the rear allows one to inspec...
@Geoff Maybury dinosaurus are always cool
I've done similar things in the past, but I saw a video on youtube that highlighted that minis with integral bases and/or 'slot bases' are an opportunity, since it allows you to use your basing mat...
@JTam those are some really nice ideas, congratulations. They will look really nice for sure. I especially like number three, the dragging weapon was a stroke of genius.
@Andreas Mayrhofer Well terain may be your thing, but you`ve nailed that gunship, looking forward to seeing more. I like all modeling, but also my favorite is scenery and Dinosinos
Does anyone know when the female cannon fodder will be released in the UK/EU? I thought the shipment had arrived and was just waiting to be released and shipped.
It's uncommon but pump action guns where the cocking action is to push the slide forward then back do exist. The Krieghoff Semprio is one I found, though that's a rifle not a shotgun. I wonder if ...
My almost universal basing strategy is to contour the figure/base with air dry clay (I used to use plastercine , but it repels water and never really hardens. Air dry clay will crack a bit, but tha...
Awesome work, Bill! Having seen Shaqille O'Neill next to our Prime Minister last week, your tall girl really doesn't stretch credibility regarding the range of human proportions: Note that Prim...
