This funded and ended today. Some nice freebies unlocked too. Including a trio of arabian ogres.

Quite a pretty good idea... could be used for various projects and conversions like a team of soldiers based on Marvel old cyborg super-soldier Deadlock 👍  

@Geoff Maybury I looks like an amazing project, but not really my cup of tea. I wish you luck and am anxious for seeing what you will do. Weird wars are a curiosity of mine, but I am now too deep i...

@Mark Dewis  Okay complete misunderstanding over here...  The Ogres were human Lansquenets, let's say mercenaries from Switzerland fighting François Ier at the Bataille de Marign...

@Geoff Maybury hmmm. It does sound fun. Maybe I will go see what Dinos the craft store has this weekend. I do have the reaper trex and triceratops...

Victrix beat WGA to the punch for unarmored late Romans, though that probably wont stop me getting a kit (or at least a few sprues) for WGA unarmored guys - I'm hopeful that WGA will feel the burn ...

@Mark Dewis Mark do these scale nicely with ours could I get my Drowned Earth Malita from them they look great.?

I've an undead army (in a box) made up of mainly sedition wars techno-zombies, that I'm going to have to get around to working on, I've been planning on using them with other boardgame cyborged ali...

@William Redford Cheers Bill want to give it a go?

If you want to come along on the journey with us, find your own dinno and I`ll show you with photos and verse how to build one. You will need to get ready with the following items. Super glue PVA g...

@Geoff Maybury Cant wait to see more DINO goodness. 

I joined this Forum approximately 10 months ago, and those that know me, are familliar that I sold my collections of ,AvP,Starwars, Startrek and Starship Troopers, Zombieside etc. Every thing that ...

Genuinely curious as to when the Merovingian Franks will release now, as it's been well over a year since we saw the CADs.

@James Brown Works for all time periods too, good for Gothic ,Punk, any thing really drop an arm or leg onto a WW 2 French Partizan and you`ve a mad German science experiment. Think you`re on to a ...

And just for fun... here is an all fantasy set with some female torsos... :)

@Mark Dewis Yeah, I mean I know people wanted them for SCIFI too, and I am not gonna claim I have a biiger right to fantasy than people have to scifi... but... I look at the sprue and think they pr...

Could also work as Borg or Adeptus Mechanicus proxies. 

@Lord Marcus I know. I was refering not to fact that they would also be unarmoured, but that they would also be late roman. 😃

Had this idea during the late shift. Cybernetic undead. Hear me out. Either cannon fodder kind of jumpsuit, generic "uniforms" or uniforms of others in the death fields we've seen. Feet ending i...

@Steven StGeorges  The tight beret was also designed by the French, for their tank crews towards the end of WW1.  However, yes... the most common military beret design does derive from ...

Shared excitement here. Both as a retailer and for adding to my legion project.

@Vitor Soares the only confirmed army builders are late Romans in lorica hamata and gothic infantry

@Don Williams thank you for giving me an alternative when I can't get my usual basing material.

@Estoc unfortunately I am not a magnetic leader of men like Imperator Augustus or Marcus Aurelius. As you can see my first centurio is well underway, with a unit of auxiliary Foederati also in pro...

@Mark Dewis  Stahhelme mmm... 🤔 or a Morion with Stahhelme elements... 👌 Anglo-saxon style beret since it is side by side with the GI headgear so seems more logical to me... the classic Fren...

@Estoc   That's old hat

Hmmm. Of the heads we have seven modern/SF options (3xGI helmet, 3xBeret and the techy chinguard one), eight premodern/Fantasy ones (3xMorion, 3x skullcap, the bald one with a match in his teeth an...

I thought you meant 1:1 as in the size of a human. This isn't quite as impressive, but still absurd.

Could still be four folios deep, with the chesticles being separate (to flatten the sprue). But at four bodies per body sprue, that'd be a bonkers strong <2.5€ per large-sized dude, and sti...

I only noticed yesterday that Warlord do have some plastic Commonwealth head options on their 8th army and Commonwealth sprues. Sikhs, Hindus, Tams, slouch hats (though without the side pinned up.....

@Blutze I agree on the space used for SCIFI. On a predominately fantasy release that was supposed to include some bits for Death Fields it seems like the main sprue caters more to Deathfields. 4 la...

This one's getting kinda bloated. Maybe I should put the Empire stuff into a separate thread. Though they are still heavily involved in this interconnected mess, so they do kinda belong here... Ma...

Gotta go against the group here. As with the spiders and the lizardmen, I am bothered by sprue space being wasted on non-fantasy bits. Be it modern or sci-fi, I like to enjoy them (if I do in the f...

@JTam  Nay ... even worse Godzilla Cat!!!  https://coleandmarmalade.com/2022/03/09/these-cats-smash-model-trains-for-a-living/  

@Berggeit  Or just check that page http://warhammerarmiesproject.blogspot.com/2013/12/alternative-miniatures-cathay.html Guys from WFB armies project are used to provide alternative minis ....

@JTam  You .... 🤣 😂 Are you going to Armenia thereafter? @William Redford  🤣

@Mark Dewis  Problem is ... historical accuracy here. The Vain -so the DF team- is supposed to be former Lansquenets -so of German, mostly Bavarian, or Swiss stock- transformed into Brutes.&n...

@JTam I ... really dont know what to say to that. 

@Lord Marcus Yeah, I want to see how they look together. I have some of Mantic's Restic ogres, and they are one of the few mantic minis I like. (the others being the demon guys and girls) So if the...

@Berggeit I'll be including the other kits either is part of the main project or as sub projects.   Speaking of 10 Foederati Numeri Infantry, awaiting the rest of their unit before being ba...

@Mark Dewis  A couple of days ago I learned the one of the national symbols of Georgia is the butt plug: Questionable emblems aside, Georgia is a beautiful country.

You're a madlad. Good luck and be sure to keep us up too date.  Are you only going to do the current available kit or wait for the army builder and the other kits too? 

@William Redford there are photos out of mantics new plastics. Are you thinking of a direct comparison? Because I will get that for you as soon as both of them are available.

@Mark Dewis that is actually my hopeful intent. To sponsor a big game at a few convention's as a form of advertising (I'm a retailer and carry WGA kits) with a full legio in a solid color scheme, f...

A noble ambition. Display aside, Ancient battles were often small enough for this to be a practical thing.  You could game a full legion against another one, or a suitable number of barbarians...

I also have a partial century of Comitatenses infantry painted   

establishing an outpost 1:1 scale, 1100 miniature + auxiliaries roman legion project.

@Alessio De Carolis thanks for the kind words. Modern webbbing comes in  a lot of shades, including camo in some cases. In this case it's science fiction, so I have a bit of latitude. Might e...

I'm a bit surprised about some of the part placement. It's possible this isn't the final layout.  In particular we have four BFGs to three bodies. It would seem to make more sense to me that ...

@Steven StGeorges Berets were worn in WW2. Those heads would be fine for that era (and later).
