Just realized that even if my sprue game gambit fails, those new egyptians are looking awfully shirtless.....
@Brian Van De Walker Sorry I missed that. Do you have a link to the discussion?
Yknow, I swear they showed up in vox populi at some point. but now that that's mysteriously vanished, I'm not really sure where they've ended up! If you're desperate I imagine it wouldn't be too ha...
Fair enough, I'm thinking of the perry agincourt miniatures where the neck is attached to the head. I seem to remember 28mm agincourt guys popping up in the sprue game, which wouldn't be my top opt...
this might require more effort than it's worth, but I wonder if, with the new standard proportions system, it could be possible to make it truly generic? like you have one sprue of "near future upg...
@Mithril2098 That sounds like something that should be in a proper set, like first responders or terrorists.
@timbus the thirteenth I get what your saying, but given my experience with tiny plastic knights, the simple way to do that on the manufacturing end with historical knight heads is to sculpt the ch...
@Brian Van De Walker Indeed. @Mark Dewis I literally gave weta workshop design as an example, spare me your snide commentary.
@danydag its been talked about already and why don't we wait to see how the sprue game plays out shall we?
addendum.. for unhelmeted gasmask heads, they should include some 'respirator only' versions. where they are wearing those half mask ones that just go over the mouth and nose, rather than the full ...
You point out to some interesting stuff here. Don’t just think of things that could be added to the figures but on bases or used with other scenery. They could be used as objectives markers i...
I could certainly get behind such a thing. I wouldn't have thought of cans and bottles per se, but the bottles would also make nice molotovs, for example! I've never seen any bits for electric to...
Hello, Would WA be interested in producing a plastic set for present days near future/Sci-Fi accessories? It could contain backpacks, pouches, holsters, cans and beer bottles, small barrels, lapt...
Fair enough, the only thing would point out is that most houndskull bascinets tend to come with integrated neck chainmail if we were to be historically accurate. It's an iconic helmet in the fantas...
@timbus the thirteenth I don't know why but that is funny.
@timbus the thirteenth get what your saying, hence heavy use "" around those words since animals are not good or bad persay. The reality is animals with triangle shapes tend to be poisionus/venomus...
@timbus the thirteenth I would just focus on pure fantasy aspects if it is possible to imagine just fantasy armor and not real world hunderd years war armor, etc. Leave historical for historical se...
@timbus the thirteenth Thanks! Yeah they definitely work well together I think. The bulldogs for me have a lot of their charm in the head options. The Brodies in particular are very nicely put toge...
these guys look really nice! i never cared too much for either the bulldogs or sneakfeet, and somehow when combined they look glorious. kitbashings a wonderful thing. also welcome to the forum, or ...
Any news on a potential Bulldogs command and heavy weapons? I saw there were raptor riders for cavalry as STLs but wasn't sure if there was any progress on the command dudes.
Another project of mine that I started quite a while ago was to do some Winter War/Continuation War Finns. The goal was to have a small force for bolt action, and unfortunately, I've still not been...
Hi all! Long time lurker first time poster, I've been brainstorming combining the bulldogs and Sneakfeet kit for a while now. the mix of uniform types is pretty compatible and while I know a lot of...
I was thinking a lot about fantasy knights recently, and what I might want out of a modular kit for them. This is definitely something that exists, but most of the kits are either very early 2000s ...
Weirdly enough, they show up on the beastmen kits as little tails. They don't look great on said beastmen, imo, but if you leave them off the poor satyrs have a giant hole in their butt.
I dunno, I always take a bit of offense at people seperating animals into "good" and "bad". I'm personally very fond of beetles, bats, and the like, even if they have negative connotations on heral...
@Piisami@Yronimos Whateley Actually its pretty easy to make a "camp good guy" looking weird riding beasts, just make them "round, cute and friendly" but most importantly "friendly" (the Wizards rid...
It always surprises me that century-old pulp literature, even older fairy tales, and illustrations from the Victorian likes of Arthur Rackham, Walter Crane, W.W. Denslow, John R. Neill, or Sydney S...
It's not the first time I've seen these ponytail bits, but I don't remember off the top of my head all the places I've seen it. I'm mostly sure the female Frostgrave, Stargrave, and Deadman'...
@Yronimos Whateley Different strokes, I suppose, but I got an overdose of the whole subverting the tropes / complexity of characters / moral greyness/relativism in fantasy thing somewhere back in t...
man, I've been getting back into 80s psychedelic fantasy aesthetics recently and god damn those designs scratch an itch. I've always been really fond of the little knights from Joust, with all the ...
@Piisami "That's probably an issue with most truly weird beasts, they have the feel of bad guy mounts...." They can come across as bad guy mounts. And why not? If you ask goblins and o...
Love how this range is developing, Orcs, Dwarves and Skeletons available now. With Ogres, Skeleton cavalry and Elves on the horizon. Plenty of units to recreate the armies of Middle Earth and some...
It looks like the beta rules aren't up anymore, does that suggest the next edition is on its way?
Yes loads more on the way from Lucas at Piano - he's sculpting away! And of course we also have Atlantic releases coming for the Sharpe game later this year to help flesh out all the units you'll n...
My Damned order arrived yesterday so I was clipping some sprue, and I was a bit confused by the little flames I was snipping off untill I realized I was clipping the female sprue; it's a problem my...
am i the only one who's a little more cautious about this? napoleonics have about a million excellent ranges, and i'm not really sure what wga can bring to the table. normally this wouldn't be an i...
i'd assume that this partnership is in part to help WGA fill out their Napoleonic range faster. since that's not gotten a lot of attention in the Sprue game polls or the older fan voting system, bu...
My question is, to not bury the lead, are we going to get more ranges and options than just fusiliers in greatcoats? My post-pandemic painting project has been finishing my 28mm French army.&...
@Yronimos Whateley Not going to lie twilight 2000 seemed like the postapoc setting that deserved more love than it got and I think it would be a great war game today as it was, even if it is althis...
God mate sorry to here about your eyes, really glad they are fine now. Nothing as bad for us but time took Tia, and Dinky from us Nala survived "Cancer" and I`ve lost the support needed for my ...
Welcome back, I've been missing you, too, wondered where you'd gone to! I was out for most of a year for a series of eye surgeries where I'd gone blind, I can see again now, and I'm healing u...
"Real World, Com " has played havoc with the lives of our family, but that's for another time, I`ve said before how much just being able to converse with you lot is good for this old farts brain ce...
since its been awhile since i did one.. anupdate. still no new starter, so my guess was wrong, but apparently the delay stems from WGA setting up and working out the bugs on their dual production ...
@Lord Marcus we meet again! Im the crazy guy that just got 12+ single sprues from you a few weeks ago! Talked about.getting back inro the hobby again. Thank you.for those instructions....
@timbus the thirteenth aye, come on classic fantasy dorfs!
the wait for the classic fantasy listings is killing me over here 😭
@Mithril2098 Given the context that it is and idea submission, "tells us anything else" seems to pretty clearly to me to mean "tells us anything else about your idea" i.e. the sales pitch par...
iirc it was labelled "tells us anything else", and in a place usually used on submission forms for unrelated comments/messages. so i took it as a general message field for feedback, and not present...
