@Mithril2098 Great idea! Options are always great in a model!
@Mithril2098 Great idea! Options are always great in a model!
if the 'dome head slavers' are meant to be a mars attacks style alien, i think you could probably combine them and the grey's into one set by just having a basic spacesuit type outfit and a collect...
@Dark Don The Grays hands down. They're an iconic alien archetype that doesn't really have much representation in the tabletop scene that isn't singular models or small packs. I'd love a 24 model ...
on the digital front, we have the hunter organisms, aka xenomorn't, who are GORGEOUS. I'd also love to see how wga does space orcs, preferably not like the current tropes. last one that could be fu...
Calpe (Now via Gripping Beast) are the best fit, and have a great reservist range in matching uniforms. Otherwise the Perry metal commands work very well, especially the reservist sets. If ...
With the relese of the awesome agent miniatures who would be up for aliens for them to combat? Lets give WGA some suggerstions. What type would you like to see?
Was wondering if anyone has used the agents or other modern models for a sci-fi/ X-Com style game? Would like to see your models and know what rules you are using, please.
I understand your discomfort and like may have said the American people are suffering from a time unpresidented. I woudnt let the negative administration (man Im hollding back) cut you ...
also even just looking at the historical side, that 300 year range covers a multitude of wildly different sets of high society fashion. even ignoring the fact that most historical wargames aren't g...
I'm getting flashbacks to the warlord samurai kit. twenty or so arms per sprue, all paired up, unlabeled, and in zero discernible order. so long as wga isn't pulling that kind of nonsense, I'm happ...
@Thomas Johnson I just googled what an aeromorph was at work cause I thought it was in the xenomorph category. I've seen worse but come on, man 😭.
I'm all for the idea, at least in theory, but I feel like a good chunk of the kit is already covered? Between the conquistadors and fantasy npcs, theres plenty of "nobility" kits. an explicitly sci...
@Brian Van De Walker - That would be great if you could add your review of the cavalry! It looks like a great kit, I just don't really have any normal use for cavalry (or vehicles either, for...
I'm going to replicate this bash with some tweaks; the old Cadian heads look amazing on these figures. Well done on this project 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻👍🏻❤️🔥
Have the instructions been posted up yet?
@Bill Holley actually the beauty of our kits is that we're not forcing you to do mono-pose figures. ALL arms will work with ALL torsos. Arm pairs are marked with R5/L5 on the frames. Heads fit on a...
First time caller, long time lurker. Straight up I've been lucky to find game makers, miniature makers and content creators that understand that the hobby is about being loose with rules and the p...
After watching Peachy's YouTube painting tutorial on these little guys, I decided to give it a go: More thoughts here (as well as a link to the painting tutorials): https://lecoqfou.blogspot.c...
@General_Mycroft thank you for the kind comments. If I recall, the other Orc characters were slightly bigger the wargs (or whatever they are called) are slightly smaller. I can post comparison pict...
@Brian Van De Walker A) Those robots look like exactly the sort of thing I'd imagine for that sort of kit in a way Wargames Atlantic should take notes of and B) I don't get what's so wrong abo...
if was to buy bolt action tanks for this, i'd probably use their Char B1's. always loved how that one looked. the resin marcher one is about the same price though, and comes with scifi bits already...
These guys look awesome! I had some great luck with buying an m3 grant platoon from Warlord. Cheap, cool design, easily kitbashed. Would probably fit the vibe quite well.
Oh for sure, quite a few of my kitbashing needs would be helped tremendously by a more fleshed out renaissance line. However, maybe this is just the type of setting I like more, but I've always lov...
the only WGA bits are the heads, but they did work out fairly well. they would have worked even better if i'd been able to remove all of the old super glue from attaching the previous heads (which ...
Oh, some of those bits look familiar, now I know where I got them from! I don't have more than a handful of them, and not everything looks familiar, so I don't think I ever had a full box - I...
Hopefully they will include instructions on/in the retail boxes, but until instructions are available at least digitally, that will leave those who just got the sprues via the crowdfund project out...
I think much - if not nearly all - traditional fantasy at least implies a dark age with a post-Atlantean,"post-apocalyptic" backstory, where some of your best weapons and armor are wondrous artifac...
WGA needs to get serious about providing some basic INSTRUCTIONS for their sets. A month ago, Max McD replied to another req for instructions, saying he was working on that... if they've been...
Guess these guys are retroactively WGA related. Salvage work on old Proxy imperial guard project from two decades ago. Wargames factory greatcoats, with WGA grognard heads (replacing some old metal...
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 ...
