@Andreas Mayrhofer OMG, I was waiting yrs for such a figures' set, with only few modifications could pass for an "Expanse" like soldier!😱 Imagine also some power armours such as the martians' mari...

@JTam The last photo explain the reason german MPs were nicknamed "Kettenhunde", aka "chained dogs"!😜
@Grumpy Gnome Not against the idea, strange the "Operators and Insurgents" are so low, I just hope they don`t keep getting delayed. Really wishing for some modern sets . Crazy when you ...
Can't say I'm a huge fan of this, however I can understand why it's being seen as necessary.
@Geoff Maybury sorry my friend, late to the party as always, but time is definietly one of the big things I do not have an abundance of so my time on here is limited :( I have placed an orde...
I thought this might be fun to discuss as well as give WGA and Zombiesmith an idea of what might do well in the future should they dedcide to make new miniatures.
I really like the quirky look of some Interwar and Early WW2 armored vehicles, such as the Soviet T-26.
Cobra at Papago Military Reservation.
Cobra at the Commemorative Air Force Museum, Mesa, AZ.
Was fortunate enough to come across a T-26 displayed in Instanbul, Turkey. A very historically significant vehicle. The Soviets fielded over 10,000 T-26s at the start of Barb...
I mean, you can do a lot with Cannon Fodder for that kind of project. I have to finish off mine, done with Iron Core backpacks and the rifles altered a bit. Orange jumpsuits, white helmets and weap...

Admittedly I have not watched the show but yeah, lol. 😉
@JTam Because we are cocky, arrogant, and dumb. :) Pass me my Crayons- I'm going in.

@Andreas Mayrhofer Ah, the old Space Shuttle Door Gunner:
@GreenScorpion Your are ingenious by combing the Einherjar. @Rondaros A'terac those look amazing! Definently something to be said for larger bases.
@Alessio De Carolis 1. You are perfectly correct rolling sleeves in combat is dumb. 2. The USMC does it all the time.
First rate work! Great to see this printed and painted. Thank You.
@Alessio De Carolis They certainly would work for the Hungarian Uprising. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Corvin_Passage https://hungarytoday.hu/young-h...
I would tend to agree with@JTam on the Neanderthals. Diversity within Homo Sapiens I get but to my eye those two skulls definitely look like different species.
@Mark Dewis If you can look at those two skulls and think a bit of skin and flesh stretched across the "two-head", massive brow ridges, and crushing jaw of the Neanderthal will make him fit ...
How about near future military astronauts? Multipart plastic guys looking something like this:
They could be perfect with some ODST-like helmet, only complaint about these beautiful minis are the rolled sleeves, very dangerous in some environments. I hope that there will be more sets, such a...
You could try to modify the legs with GS, making ankle lenght boots, to simulate a combat uniform. All these figures are a bless for kitbashing and conversion, I hope that they'll make also a femal...
Female combatants' bodies could be also useful for other conversions, consider that from early '30s till late '50s female dresses didn't changed much, at least for lower/working class. So these cou...
They look amazing! The shadows in the white cloth are coinflip for me. They look still great.
From a business point of view I understand this system. You will learn which product is the safest bet to create/release. But I will not use it. If I am going to pay for Warring States infantry to ...
Hello, as with my last post, I didn't know that I really needed a few monks. But something about the characters drew me in and I couldn't resist printing and painting some of them. The Mast...
Given that the plastic pipeline is several years away from being cleared, I think you can assume any teaser that doesn't line up with a known pipeline kit is going to be digital for at least a coup...
@JTam the main difference is a longer, lower skull. Hair hides most of that. And Homo Neanderthalensis were humans, just as validly as Homo Sapiens. We know they interbred. Here are some Homo Sap...
To clarify: at 1000 votes, a set gets put into the fast track queue. Every kit you see available for votes is actively being worked on. This just helps prioritize the schedule based...
And it should be stressed that the 1000 vote thing just fast tracks the set. Likely meaning that it will get priority over other kits at the same stage of development to move to the next stage. A k...
Pulp Fantasy is one of the easiest to envision. Nearly all the "classic" fantasy literature such as Conan, Solomon Kane, Tarzan, the Sword series by Leiber are what I consider Pulp fiction. Bigger ...
@Grumpy Gnome Well that does sound very positive. I certainly like the concept, sounds like the execution is excellent as well.
@Sean Tighe Where is this?
@Mark Dewis I don't think Neanderthals should be mistakable for humans. Albeit I wasn't there.

Like I said on MMF, the gladiator bits are going to be great additions to the Damned forces. I might steal a head for a base of a Turnip28 figure too. Great set! The Neanderthals looks fantastic a...
To be honest the scheme didn't sit well on first glance. The cost feels a bit icky. And having the release be based on a vote, rather than when sets are ready just doesn't sit well with me. Ses tha...
