New release today:

Targeting System

http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=571

Set contains ten resin casts.

Those sensors are cool.
What may not be obvious to everyone without going to the product's page and exploring a little, is that they do have holes for magnets. So any of those open peg/magnet slots you might have don't have to be left bare anymore!

I like it.. subtle but very useful

For those who think that flesh is weak

IRON MUTANTS/HEADS AND PADS SET

Set contains 5 heads and 10 pads.

And today something totally different.

We would like to show demo version of first Chess set by our design. This one is inspired by Greek mythology but in mind we have whole range of highly detailed chess boards and pieces including fantasy, historical and sci-fi theme.

We would like to know what do you think of that idea and what kind of chess set you would like to see on your shelf.

Awesome!

That is pretty damn fantastic, some superb designs there. What kind of production methods will be used for these? Coloured resins? Some other material? Any rough estimates on cost yet?

Product looks fantastic!

Will you be selling it cast in two different colors like that, with a wash applied to bring out the detail? I'm guessing that's what is shown there, and it looks quite good!!

I would be interested in a fantasy set although the Greek mythology one is not really as targeted for this market, of course. Like Paradigm, I'd love to know what the general pricepoint area you're looking at for these is.

Finally, one suggestion - a hollow area of the base that is easy to add a weight to (for example, to fill with BBs / pellets). If this option were available, I would probably fill mine and put felt on the bottom, too, although I wouldn't necessarily expect them to come like that. But making it possible for someone to weight the pieces would be really appreciated - especially with how tall some of those are!

It would probably be as simple as leaving it hollow in the bottom area - and someone could use pellets + hot glue to fill it, then cover with felt (which can also be hot-glued in place). You may want to include the small squares of felt in this case, or just a sheet of felt that the user could cut up with scissors if you don't have an easy way to cut it up there (a low powered laser cutter is probably ideal).

Wow! That is one sweet chess set!

Also handy if you ever want to build a ruined temple terrain piece!

I kind of want to see what you could do with an entire mythological army, these sculpts are right on the money.

Wow. Those Taurus rooks are awesome.

Man you guys have come so far.

Honestly I would like to see a sci-fi Chess set inspired by your current striker and chaotic forces.

Cool! A suggestion for future sets:

Classic monsters (Vampire, Frankenstein's Monster, Fishman, Wolfman, etc)

Angels and Demons

Steampunk

Angels and demons, now that's an idea!

I was actually going to suggest both of those!

IRON MUTANTS/HEADS AND PADS SET

Set contains 5 heads and 10 pads.

Will those heads fit Space Marines? I understand the last set of Iron Mutant heads were Guardsman sized.

Those are excellent! As others have said, angels and demons, steampunk (I'm thinking automotons, what do others think?) but I'd like to suggest a set for Chinese Terracotta warriors (either historical or fantastical would be cool)

I'm thinking clockwork/steam-powered automatons for Pawns, well-dressed (by which I mean MASSIVE hats) Gentlemen and Ladies for the King and Queen, mad professor types for bishops, mechanical animals for Knights, large cannons or something for Rooks.

While I like the classic look of the pieces, the board itself got me more interested.

One talking point that frequently gets tossed around is “Make a chess set from your army” Having themed boards could be fun. Could be interesting to have a build-you-own system, where you have different styles of squares, and could match the army. Not that far off from resin bases, just need to be squares big enough to fit under the pieces.

Stempunk, urban industrial, demon world, etc.

Would love some of them as single pieces to use as terrain in Malifaux or Frostgrave - probably wouldn't buy a whole set, but a few single ones would be really cool.

Even better if it was with a fantasy theme.

How about expanding the board, or having expansions for it? Have the center of the board be the center of a Blood Bowl Pitch, just continue the squares outward, or have the pitch come in segments and the center be the chess set. Then you can have your chess pieces be the different races and slug it out on the pitch or go classic on their and take out their king.

Lots of really nice ideas here, we are taking notes and paying attention. Unfortunately, I can't tell anything more at this point... More details will be available soon though and I think that many of You guys (and gals, hopefully too) will find our sets interesting.

And yes, of course, pieces will be great for some monuments, living statues, etc. too

And today, one of our earlier releases.

Something rotten for all your rotten armies.
Plague Warriors Heads.

Yep, will certainly be watching for it and totally understand if you can't give away anything else. Looking forward to more sets when they are ready! And really hope they are made so they can be weighted so folks don't tip over those nice pieces.

Oh wow.. those helmets
I think they may motivate me to get moving on my Killzone army again.

This is SPARTA!

That's pretty cool, getting a retro sci fi vibe off it

I can't tell if it's orky or just chibi.
