And there are 2 more Walvax on the way too!

Would go well with all my other filthy hairy Fomoraic stuff.

Aye, though bear in mind that these go with the slimy fishy side of the Fomoraic:

well... these guys serve Baalor, of course, but they are Conand's lot.

It's been submitted so as soon as KS says yes from the sound of it

Ok, Some on the Kickstarter comments have requested pics of the Metal Duguth starter host that I just got in the mail today, from the 'Metal Age' campaign.

Here you go! (tried to embed the images, but it didn't work, hope the links work ok for everyone.)

Here's the entire host, sorry it's a bit blurry...

I got Skaadi too, a close up on her face.


Enjoy!

Lovely stuff

Really nice looking casts - I am now not only really looking forward to my Metal Age stuff arriving, but to seeing what else Mierce will release in metal.

I'll be going to all metal for all of my human sized infantry from now on!

Sweet! I hope mine are similarly in the mail!

Looks great Skullking! I have 10 resin duguth from the 1st KS, but I'm definately adding the host w Reocs pack from savage hordes now. I wish I'd gotten my jutes in metal too... those spears seem so delicate in resin.

Metals look good! I have a fair few coming already, but that makes me feel more confident about adding even more in the next KS

Agreed, thanks for the pics in metal, that is great to see!

Live!

And by god, there's some excellent concepts shown

Ah! It begins again!

One minor niggle- there aren't any artists listed!

I love that about Mierce's campaigns!

Those new Fomorians look like Heath Foley artwork. Am I correct in that assumption? Or maybe someone else who has done art for Mantic?

Looks familiar.

That Fomorian host is a crazy deal if I'm reading it correctly. Only a 6 pound difference between getting the metal host or just the walrus men in resin? Tough decisions...

I think the Fomoraic host artist is Roberto Cirillo, just trying to confirm

I DON'T NEED MORE MIERCE MINIATURES!

I DO NOT NEED MORE MIERCE MINIATURES?

I DO ....a f* it... 200$ here we go.

Heh, nothing tops the wihtax host, where you could get the spiders for 63, or the spiders, banner bearer and 10 dudes for 3 pounds LESS lol.

Have they fulfilled their numerous other projects yet?

As much as I love me some Roman stuff, I haven't made the plunge for the Byzantii yet, and I think I can hold off taking that jump for the time being.

Wallet safe.

For now

Roberto Cirillo for the Fomorians

They are progressing along pretty well. I recently cataloged all that I've pledged for and for the most part almost everything is done.

I've got a massive shipment coming in in the next few days taking care of most of what I have been waiting for. After it arrives, I'll only have 9 more miniatures left out of the 47 total I've ordered through kickstarter (Not counting Savage Horses 1 and Metal age which will be shipping soon after), and 6 out of those 9 are currently in the process of being sculpted.

My worry levels about Mierce have dropped quite a bit.

Some yes, others no. Their mold maker had an operation that laid him up for a while, which can impact a small business. Monstrous Mounts in particular had a delay due to this, as they had to cast the beast, then send it back to the sculptor to add the rider/gear. Things seem to be moving forward on that again, and my recent additions have shipped and should be arriving soon.

One of the sculptors for the banebeast ones, Gary Morley, became seriously ill, so they had to reassign them. There have been a few other sculpting shuffles which have impacted other projects as well - I imagine Stephane Simon was tied up finishing Conan, which impacted his work for Mierce as well. Two of their newer guys, Yannick Hannebo and Valentin Zak, have been cranking out awesome sculpts at a fast pace, so that should help some of the backlog.

Essentially they have completed parts of a bunch of different KS, which are shipping, but not everything from all of their kickstarters has shipped. Zed has a master list somewhere of what is still outstanding that should have shipped (most of it from New Kindreds).

In for Walrusmen!

I can even afford to back it at the right level for once, rather than pledge a tenner and scratch around for the rest once the pledge manager goes live!

At this point I've still got those Monstrous Mounts holding up my orders. That big monitor lizard with Agriosavra on it and Srok are probably my most outstanding figures at this point.

I probably ought to check into that with Rob, come to think of it, as I'm pretty sure I have multiple shipping times paid for.

Probably should check into that after work.

I hate to say it, but I am tempted to back this. Not that I need more figures and I still don't have the stuff I did pledge for back in the Jutes campaign. Some day, I'd like to actually get those figures.

Those Walvax look great! (Although don't unlock until £50K)

As always stuff looks fantastic but kickstarter backlog/fatigue with Mierce has fully set in. Right now I don't need more stuff for a game I can't properly play.

The walvax look great, I wish I had an idea on how to use them
I like the "roman" archers too, very promising.

I like 4 out of the first 5 - everything except the [boo-hiss!] Ys!

I wonder if they'll have to 'sweeten the deal' again, like in SH1, in order for us to get to that £50K unlock?

I hope we get there - the world needs more monstrous Walrus-men in it!

You guys who have been following Mierce for a while, and since I've been out of the loop for a bit regarding spending money on new miniatures, what of these ones are re-sculpts of already existing miniatures?

I've not studied every unlock intently, but I'm pretty sure these are all new.

I was also thinking about about the "commanders". For example, Bow-Annik for the Ys is a pre-sculpted figure (can't remember the name on the top of my head, though). And I probably recognize Bowman-Urien, too, right? But are there any more?
