Subject: Re:Official Meridian Miniature news and rumors thread. New Terramortis preview (gothic sci fi).
As do I.
Really like the chain-assesories-aestetic and the heads look better than more or less anything I've seen outside some (unfortunally very expensive) Forgeworld offerings.
Will there be extra heads offered as a separate product?

These figures will be launched via KS but I will offer heads separately afterwards.

No. No! Bad brain! You will not see these models and immediately begin planning a pre-Unity Terra techno-barbarian warband campaign using modified FW Strike Forces rules, not when you have a 2-feet-tall stack of unbuilt AdMech stuff on your desk.

Will there be variant helmet designs? I am not a big fan of the WW1 styled helmet looks kind off out of place.

The completed figures are in preproduction right now so no comp photos, will sort some for the Kickstarter. If I were to compare them to an existing product then I would say that they are quite bulky, like Games Workshop or Anvil industry's miniatures but of course will vary slightly as these are for a different game and sculpted by myself.

The pictures are being taken as I complete figures, I'm very busy with freelance sculpting as well as my other ranges but will update as regularly as possible. There may be more photos that you've not seen on FB, it's hard to heep track of!

There are other heads in the works alternatively you might find suitable alternatives from any number of "bits" companies. Was there a specific look that you were after?

The grilled helmet in this one looks too much like the grilled masks/helmets from a major company that releases armored future miniatures.
They seem to be a cross between roman and goth influences, so maybe modernistic versions of those?

That helmet was inspired by a roman Hastati helm, I see what you're saying with the ww1 influence. There's a visored variant and more in the works, will keep you updated.
Automatically Appended Next Post: And now for a different beast altogether! It's been a while since I ran my last KS campaign for the Tooth & Sword chibi miniatures but I've just put the final miniature up for sale on my online store.
I had been dreding painting it but it was actually a great deal of fun, painting chibi style miniatures is a real different task to more usual figures!
I'm happy to announce that I have released my first non Kickstarter funded figures.....Chibi zombie miniatures! They are intended for my Tooth and Sword range but I'm sure many a dungeon master will enjoy throwing them down graveyard alleys and the corridors ancient cartoon tombs!
These figures are cast in high quality resin and stand at roughly 30mm tall. the figures have been sculpted and painted by me (andrew may), please spread the word and by all means purchase them here: http://meridianminiatures.com/tooth-and-sword/chibi-zombies
Thanks all!

Subject: Re:Official Meridian Miniature news and rumors thread. CHIBI ZOMBIES OUT NOW!
The largest figure is the Aequatherium, it stands at 90mm at the tallest point and is a multi part resin casting. I was so pleased with the level of detail that I put in the sculpt that I was scared to paint it but I'm pleased with how it's turned out in the end.
These figures were all sculpted for my steampunk miniatures range but would fit in many sci fi, fantasy, Cthulhu or other genre tabletop games.
Also,I'm pleased to say that I have decided to reduce my prices for postage after some envelope wrangling! I've decided to offer FREE POSTAGE on orders above £50!
Cheers all!
