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...
This may be of interest to folks reading this thread. https://www.beastsofwar.com/project/1758046/ Some interesting ideas regarding Ghost Archipelago, Silver Bayonet and Mesoamerica...
@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...
Age of Sigmar has all kinds of plastic female Sigmarines: Fantasy Chaos Cultists: (Well some of them look mostly female.... although you never know with Slaneesh.) And a grip of "gangs" for ...
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!
I have the plastic Escher kit. They are nice. There are 2 identical sprues and each body has 2 builds though it's not super hard to do weapon swaps and get more variation out of them. I have...
Sneak Peak from 12 AUG 22: Perhaps WGA IS getting into the terrain business.
The Mantic Northern Alliance Clansman kit looks pretty decent. It includes some female heads. Normally I'm a big advocate for female miniatures that you can tell are female.&nb...
And there's these Bad Bishes. The all female gangers of House Escher. Well sculpted minis: Of course who ever painted this could probably make any mini look good. Unknown p...
There are female models in GW's Van Saar Eldar (vaguely) and Dark Eldar kits. (At least half the bodies in the Wyches box.)
Maybe these would work? https://www.etsy.com/listing/1068912526/maslo-defender-class-robots-28-32mm They stand about 62mm tall. I just assembled and primed a set and I really like them.
I Googled what an AT-RT is. That's a tiny thing. Disregard the above, the car on legs thing threw me off. How do you feel about a AT-RT print? https://www.etsy.com/listing/124...
Something like this?: https://mortian.shop/product/heavy-crawler-multikit/ Not cheap. But half the price of the alternative:
So, one big thing I've noticed in the hard plastic sci-fi ranges of this here planet is a distinct lack of walkers/mechs/assault droids, not AT-ST or Imperial Knights, nor Chappies and B-1s , but s...
Oh, and then there's the most common, best selling, multi-part plastic female kits of all: The Adeptus Sororitas. Deal with it. I think they are like most current GW offerings only semi mu...
@GreenScorpion @William Redford September is going to be a good month. Definitely getting some of those Desert Girls and some Dark Maenad miniatures as well.
@JTam Nice! I'll have to snag the new Stargrave and Frostgrave chicks. Putting together my bad guys for Five Leagues and Five Parsecs, I got some total sausage parties going on; my vill...
@William Redford We forgot about the excellent WGA Panzerjager. https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/68338/panzerjager-a-call-to-arms When the miniatures are assembled...
Sneak Peak for 12 AUG 22: Well, this is exciting. Is WGA getting into the terrain game? Not sure if GW being about to do an entire season of Kill Team set on Space Hulks makes the timing ...
@William Redford Reference the old Wargames Factory Amazons: I think the kit as a concept has incredible potential. The execution was just lacking. They just looked like awkward...
@William Redford That was a pretty all encompassing list. I wasn't tracking then Malifeux (sp?) female kit at all until your above mentioned thread. Shame they're all about 8ft tall.....
Oops.. Happy (late) Birthyday Mister
@H M after having actually looked at them, I don't think they're for me, either.
@GreenScorpion September... Hmm. I will have to save some additional moneys then as another kickstarter I am interested in is launching in September. (Dark Maenad) those will be SIOCAST though.
The new Amazons from the Scythians kickstarter have not delivered yet, but I backed pretty big in that kickstarter so should have a bunch ... at some point in the future...
@William Redford According to the comments (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shieldwolf/war-is-coming-reinforcements/comments) Shieldwolf is relaunching in September, so it might be that those ...
I posted this in the goblin samurai thread, but it probably should be its only thing. What multipart plastic female minis are there? And what are your thoughts. the mantic basaleans are list...
