And today... another competition...

We would like You to build a house of cards. Taller, the better. Please build a house, take a picture of the house and a sheet of paper with 'Puppets War House of Cards' written on it and post it in the comments. We will give ten sets of playing cards (the kind shown on the photo) to builders of the tallest houses. There will be also one special prize
Please be aware, that this competition runs on G+ and FB too.

Contest runs till next Wednesday, when the winners will be announced.

This will be an interesting competition.

For a mini review.. I bought some of the little spiders. It took a month before I got a shipping notification then they arrived after about a week. The casting is really good. There is flash to clean off but no airbubbles and no missing detail. The resin is very even with no noticeable imperfections.

So in summary:
Shipping.. same as before :/
Quality.. Excellent.. but such small models might not be a good comparison.

I LOVE those cards! Will these become available to buy??

Hmm, if I use glue or tape, I can make a _really_ tall house of cards

lol, yeah I thought about the tape thing. Head to the dollar store, drop a few bucks on some cards and boom..there ya go.

Well, we thought it is obvious that no tape of any kind is allowed
Regarding buying these cards - not available (and I don't know if they will be available in store, maybe yes, maybe not). The only option to get them now is to build us a house of cards

And as it is Friday, it is time for another release: We hope you will like our new product:

Aistrike Cav Pads
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=448
Set contains ten resin pads in 28 mm 'heroic' scale.

Love the pads they have a use right away nice work guys

is there another pad of the same dimensions for the other arm? I don't usually like putting the unit identifier on both shoulders.

Yes, closest in style:

PW, Thanks for the quick response! Would be nice if it had studs too but that's probably close enough when it's on the table.

You could always greenstuff the other side to fill in the emblem as its recessed.

I could also trim plastic rod to make the sleek ones match.. or just sculpt them myself.. but what I'd reaallly like, is if PW released numbers 1-10 in roman numerals (packs of 10 per number) with the number recessed like the emblem. Will it happen? Eh.. I dunno.. that's up to PW but I can hope

Sorry, wasn't trying to be snarky. Just a quick fix that would have left a smooth finish for transfers. If you were wanting the recessed numbers you should have been more elaborate with your response.

lol, I actually wasn't thinking about those until I started thinking about modding or sculpting.. my mind wandered into that territory.

Speaking of shoulder pads...

Which of the three yet unreleased shoulder pads, visible on this photo, should be released this week? Counting from left, no. 1, no. 2 or no. 3? (model in the background has Air Cav pad, which is already available). Pick your favourite and comment, please.

PW- It might be too late for this but would it be possible for you to do a smooth pad with separate chevrons? That way we can trim off some to make different ranks? If not it probably wouldn't be too hard to just trim it off of the pad but either way.. it would be really neat.

If it's not obvious I like the Chevrons (number 2).

Following that, the Star in the circle (number 3).

Glad you guys are putting out so much product and that you are spreading it out across your ranges. It keeps a guy on his toes

Hi everybody, just thought I'd contribute to the thread; received my Orc Fly Destructor turret today, two weeks after order. Casting is generally nice and crisp, couple of small strips of flash and one or two areas of slightly "porous" texture, but on a par with other resin models I've purchased and nothing that normal prep won't clean up. The two inch long barrels are nice and straight, which is a new one for me with resin!

All in all, count me as one satisfied customer with some shiny new dakka for the boys, thank you!

I vote for pad 3.

Will you guys be offering a 5man Air Cav bundle in the near future?

2 but all 3 would be best

I like the look of 3.

3 then 1 then 2, for my money.

1 > 2 > 3 for me.

The chevron pad would be awesome in the larger pads for the super soldiers!

Hey Puppets, do you think in the future you may make some more medieval bits to fit "special forces" with the longswords, halberds, and templar helmets?

I like pad 2. It's the most 'neutral' and denotes a veteran, of sorts.

The star looks too much like a WWII US soldier which is fine, but doesn't fit in with the SciFi aesthetic.

I was thinking of a unit of guys in cowboy hats with a lonestar theme going on.

pad 2

@Barzam

It is quite possible. Nothing is set in stone yet but it is a thing we think about.

@Jadenim
Thanks for your short review, we are glad You like our turret

@Wyzilla

Hey Puppets, do you think in the future you may make some more medieval bits to fit "special forces" with the longswords, halberds, and templar helmets?

I don't know about Special Forces but such weapons and accessories are certainly planned (or already made) for Crusaders of Nnni.

And one more thing. Do You remember our little 'House of Cards' contest? So far only Jan Zimmer from our Facebook fanpage send us a photo of his card building and he has a guaranteed deck of our cards already (who dares wins).
We will prolong this contest till the end of the week, say Saturday.
Rules:
We would like You to build a house of cards for us. Taller, the better. Please build a house, take a picture of the house and a sheet of paper with 'Puppets War House of Cards' written on it and post it in the comments. We will give ten sets of playing cards (the kind shown on the photo) to builders of the tallest houses. There will be also one special prize
One more thing - no tape of ANY kind allowed
And here is our building. Certainly, it is not Burj Khalifa but hey - at least we try.

Glue it is then ... bwahaha

I kid

My son is actually downstairs trying to make a house of cards right now.
