@JTam either greenstuff, spikey bits from the bits box or like i recently did on my Primaris Night Lords steel wire
@JTam either greenstuff, spikey bits from the bits box or like i recently did on my Primaris Night Lords steel wire
I'm very pleased with this box. There are so many options to choose ... heads, weapons, and poses, especially when you kit bash with the Late Romans and Gripping Beast dark age figures). My first b...

Bases maybe? If you're going to do tech textured bases, you might draft something like that before you cut various sized circles out of it...
New Blood Bowl Amazon pics: Not in the catalogue yet, but all the other teams are USD$50 for 12 figures plus some tokens. Likely to have enough swappable parts to make up 12 unique models in...
This is stretching it a bit, but there is a multipart plastic female/"Molly Pitcher" on the Warlord Games AWI Artillery sprue: There's also Boudicca on the Victrix Celtic chariot sprue: &nb...
@jon gawne Concur. Have you seen the Blood and Valor Americans? Minus the giant hands they look OK.... and may bide you over. https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenfo...
@JTam I bought a set of the Wardaughters 2. Saw one on Ebay. I went to my Badger games wishlist and the 14 models I wanted were $91. That includes shipping but I could not justify it right now. So ...
@Mark Dewis Witch elves (aelves) and daemonettes were mentioned in the first post, but both are good enough to bear repeating. The witch aelves/sisters of slaughter I will say the heads on them wer...
Surprised no one posted these ones yet: Daemonettes. Witch Elves: There are females in the Blood Bowl teams as well. I won't post those - every one of the Elf and Human...
While there arelots of WW1 figures out there (plastoic and metal) one area that is very lacking is the US Army. The few metal figs are very poorly done, and even so I paintd up a bunch ...
Looks like they are painting examples and printing boxes so four legged bugs it is. I think I will re name them the disappointments .
@Paul Cziganj Excellent point. WW2 Hungarians are perhaps too niche for plastic. But a WW1/WW2 kit ala the WGA French Infantry kit would be exceptional.
@Grumpy Gnome That's a great link!

@Paul Cziganj Can't argue with the "order of merit" list. Reference "1" the M43 uniform kit... I don't think one even needs to mention the drawbacks of the Wargames Factory kit ...
@Andreas Mayrhofer Great concept sketch and great idea. Those guys are going to be scary. They have the feel of troops/cultists sworn to Khorne to me. How are you adding the spi...
@Paul Cziganj Please post pictures if you get a chance. Those sound like awesome conversions. And it would be great to see what one can do with that set.
@William Redford I should have mentioned Lucid Eye in the "Who should we (WGA) partner with to make plastic miniatures?" thread. All their stuff is gorgeous. I got a bunch of the Ward...
Dig it! Even though Chaos isn't my bag, Chaos players always bring the goods with conversions, since G-Dub doesn't usually have the requisite models (corrupted IG, Dark Mechanicus, etc.). Ca...
@Andreas Mayrhofer Those are really great! Fantastic paint job, too! 🤘
Kitbashing is mandatory. Almost every Mini I own is kitbashed in some way. My recently built Chaos Cult is Made from frostgrave cultists, death fields Upgrade sprue weapons, WW2 German gear, GW ar...
hey Guys, I came up with a simple concept sketch for a Chaos Cult shocktrooper focusing on the raw strength aspect. I plan on using the spacenam figures and the upgrade sprue heads as a Base. The ...
@Estoc I wasn't aware, but that general size of medium size walkers of smaller than a knight but larger than Infantry+ was what I was aiming for. @Bill Thomas Those look really awesome too, sadly ...
I've recently received the female gunslingers set, it's pretty great apart from the comically thick barrels on some guns (I used a Winchester's barrel as a main gun for a Type 97 Japanese tankette)...
As a HUGE fan of everything Soviet, I'd say there are fourkits that would be awesome to have, in decreasing order of necessity. 1) Late War Soviets. M43 uniforms, with wide shoulder boards and sta...
@William Redford It depends where you live. You have to check toy stores https://www.mrtoys.com.au/our-offers/hot-clearance-specials/pocket-titans-series-1-assorted-42647.html Or ebay: https://www...
Austro Hungarians could double as WW2 Hungarians, though. The cut of the uniform was similar, the caps were similar, and Hungary sported a WW1-pattern Stahlhelm during Round 2 as well. Then, Mannli...
@JTam Surface detail on finished 28mm pieces may not be that detailed but blown up computer renders can be. 😉 Still, I am prepared to be wrong. I just do not see it being a vehicle o...
Ok, My recomendations. With past succesful kickstarters that turned out to be failures there have been planty of cheap mechs on the market. The 2 biggest? Wrath of Kings and Relic Knights. There wa...
@mruk Those look awesome. Do you have a link as to where to buy them?
Or you can buy some toy robots kitbash/paint them. I would recomend Pocket Titans. You get one random robot with some nice SF terrain elements in each set:They look quite nice when painted:Here are...
@Viking Cowboy The Armigers (small knights) are bigger than then sentinels (guard walkers).
@Grumpy Gnome @John Wilson I don't think surface detail that fine is possible on a 28mm weapon. Unless it's a big old (I dare say terrain) sized artillery piece.
There is always the Maelstrom's edge Hunter mech, if you don't mind them being either AI or very small pilot. https://www.maelstromsedge.com/medge/store.jsp?p=20 There is also the Mantic Strider....
@Grumpy Gnome I've put that theory forward on the facebook group, my thinking is the armless marine was put in there to be sneaky rather than it being in scale to the object. Most seem to bel...
I think it is a close up shot of a new Marine weapon design but I expect to be wrong.
@JTam I noticed that backdrop too, and it would be very nice to have a more sci-fi generic set of terrain... I can think of some certain "Bug-Huntin' Marines" which might benefit from that... and t...
@Geoff Maybury yup, like you I both love and hate them in equal measure haha! I love the fact that they offer so many options, but their rifles and small arms, etc are horribly oversized, and their...
@Geoff Maybury sorry, only able to get on here at weekends really due to work, but a big belated Happy Cake Day to you mate 😍 I always love our conversations, one of the things that keeps me coming...
@Viking Cowboy a very interesting question as this is something that I'm searching for as well for my "No Mans Land" alternate 1930's project... I have a few walkers from the Konflikt 47 range, but...

@JTam The Ziggurat minis are really nice. I dont have any but I have a wish list from Badger Games that includes the War daughters and the Breath of Inana.
:) I actually have both the Blisbard archers and the Delaque gangers. Though both are new in box. I knew the blisbarb archers had females but did not know the delaque did. I may assemble one of the...
@JTam That would work awesome for the royal forces, at shame they don't sell the .stl. Though I did dig around a bit on MyMiniFactory and found a perfect rip of the Admech Crawler, I already have o...

There are some female Genestealers: Some female 40K Chaos Cultists too:
@Benjamin Hayward Excellent point - most all the gangs do have females. Even the Goliaths have this plastic kit: Delaque - female upper left and lower right I believe. I d...
I think all the Necromunda (except for Goliaths, of course) have a few females. Gonna have to pick up some of these sprues on the eBay!
