Hi Guys,

I just finished posting the newest batch of parts on my website.

They are currently available on pre-order and I expect to begin shipping them by the 30th.


Here's some pics of the new stuff:

Pretty cool I guess. Dont see too many large japanese swords

Hey Paulson, they look nice, but it would be really, really helpful to have a 28mm mini next to them for scale -

I really like the swords.

Well if those measurements are the length that means the smallest is as long as a 25mm round base. But yes a scale photo would be nice

Hope this helps a bit...the power sword on the AoBR SM Captain is 37mm, the new Grey Knights term power swords are 45mm, a CSM chainsword is 31mm, and a DA power sword is 35mm. So basically the No-Dachi and Katana would work well for SM and CSM swords. The wakazashi would make a big knife or machette, the ogre-dachi would be daemon prince sized. Any of them may be a bit too large or "beefy" for IG, DE, etc.


However, some measurements on the axes and hammer would be good.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
One thing to check out on the paulson website...tower shields. A few of those, some FW MK III iron armor, a few bits from ebay and you could build a squad of "boarding marines" for about what a single one of the limited edition goes for on ebay.

I really like that spear, and the double bitted ax brings back fond He-Man memories. Thanks for that! I might have to hit your store up late for some of those spears.

I have the various part sizes listed on my site, but a visual compairision is always better so here they are on a 32mm scaled mini. (mentally apply your favorite brand of plastic manz)

These are were added to the site & more stuff is coming soon

Love the Chitin Blades!

Those are the enclosed-body railguns from a while ago, right? Have to say, they look excellent. Much more tau-ish than the GW open-body ones.

I think I liked the old boneswords better.

Are you considering dropping the old bio-sword design you also have on your site currently? Or are you just planning on having both available?

I've bought some of the old kind (and like them) and if you were stopping production I might just buy some extras for the future (just in case).

Why make useful add-ons in 32mm when the vast majority of figures are 25-32mm? Missing a large pool of buyers.

Huge fan of the new bio-sword design, it actually looks like something that would be grown, rather than the old swords that looked like normal swords with an organic hilt.

Love the new sword design. Perfect for the Hive Tyrant and Tyranid Alpha IMO (especially) to show their leader status.

Those new bone sword designs are nice!

The older bio-swords might get dropped but I'd like to have them available as long as possible. If you need some for rounding out projects I'd suggest getting them now rather than later. (They are also at a reduced price currently)

The guns are a revised version of the original rail guns, much cleaner detail now. I also made the wolf bases available seperately along with adding some battletech styled hex bases.

I've additionally added a blog to the site so people are welcome to leave commenst or questions there as well.

The largest market for mini parts is for figures in the 28-32mm range, particuarly for oversized and bulky weapons commonly found in "heroic scale". 25mm figures are usually much more slender using more realistic proportions the downside of that is the weapons are considerably smaller and more difficult to cast. Details are a lot finer and the sculpting end is harder hence why certain companies prefer "heroic scale" stuff.

If you place a space marine or a warmachine infantry model next to a true 25mm scale mini you'll see just how massive they are and 25mm scale weapons won't work very well on 28mm heroic figures.

I like those new blades better than the other resin ones.

I just got sets of the old blades and new ones, as well as the lash whips. These are all top notch, I like all of them but the new style is better in my opinion. I will post a review and pics once i get through my current projects. But if you are on the fence on purchasing these, go ahead and do it. The models are very nice and well cast and the company has been super easy to work with.

Old style swords are about to be discontinued, the molds are wearing out and there are no plans to replace them. I have a small stock of them left and will keep them available through Nov 7th, after that I will likely be out of stock for good.


Giving you guys notice so that if you have any left over projects to take care of you can get them before they are gone.

Curious if the katana or wakazashi's are to big for Forgeworld Elysians / IG type models?

Noooooooooooo!


So I'm assuming you're discontinuing both the big and small versions of the sword?

And what about the bio-tendril? Is that still all good?


I hate buying for things I may or may not ever do, but its better than being stuck without enough I suppose!

Both the large and small swords are going (the old sculpts)

The Bio-Tendril will remain in production but will have a couple modifications to it. The upside is I can probably drop the price a bit once it's resculpted.

I'd prefer to keep them continually in production, but sadly I can't.

I like the new bio swords more than even the GW bonesword on their Tyrant, so I don't mind

Any plans on doing a smaller bio-tendril? It's a good size for Tyrants, but it's really big on Warriors.

I have some of the bio-tendrils, once heated up and bent they seem to be great on warriors. Just my opinion

I hit a bunch of roadblocks getting these into production but they are finally ready and listed up for purchase on the site.








I know this is a bit odd for adding to my annoucnements but there's another start up company I'd really like to help promote: Proxie Models.

I've always been in need for a lot of 60mm dreadnought sized bases. They are usually pricey as all hell on ebay and from bits sellers which is why I was excited when I saw these. A pack of 8 bases is $4.00 so that's just 50 cents a piece. It's a really good deal and Ken is a great guy who can really use the business, so I wanted to give him some props. http://proxiemodels.com/basesonly.aspx

Just a final heads up, this is the last week to get some of the models in their current forms.

A number of items are going to be removed from inventory next week and won't be back. Some items are having changes made to their sculpts.

These are going away:
Bio-Swords (large and regular) I have about 20 sets of these left in stock and those are the last ones period.


These are being changed, they will be offsite for a bit and when I relist them they will have revised sculpts. (the original sculpts will no longer be available)
Bio-Tendril
Bio-Terror
Riding Wolves

I highly suggest getting any orders in ASAP.

scale on those big weaps paulson?

I'll wait on my order and see what your new bio-tendrils look like. Yours are the best on the market, but I'm still not entirely sold on them. If the new ones are in the same style as the new chitin blades, I should be a happy camper.
