Tis now live gents.



https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1103158358/red-box-games-heroic-fantasy-miniatures






These are the new pieces that I have almost ready for production that will be going up for funding on kickstarter either over the weekend or the beginning of the week next week. These are intended to be the first offering and I will probably try to get a few more pieces done over the course fo the campaign as funding warrants. I intend to deliver these by Christmas.

I am not sure about the club on Tradkarl though. that was originally a weapon for a charatcer from the " other " project that I had though i could repurpose here but I am not quite sure it " works ".

Ullr will be weilding a battle axe, and the Shieldmaiden will have a sword and shield. Hoep you guys like them!

Ah waw! They look really wonderful! I especially like the facial hair, really characterful touch!

I'm not overly familiar with your work in general but by 'other project', do you mean your separate little game world that you're crafting and populating with undead and such?

Eagerly awaiting the kickstarter at any rate, top notch stuff!

He does look a little advanced to be have a staff that appears to be made out of a large femur.

Also - you need a link to your site in your signature. Looking at these made me want to go look at other Red Box minis, and now I have to go to the Google. God knows what might happen to me from now to then!

I like the Conquistador style armor guys.

Sadly they aren't as heavy metal as my barbarian warriors.

We'll find out soon enough eh.

Are these guys going to be in a similar scale to your existing models aye? I love your style but it's hard to know which models will look ok next to GW stuff since yours are so realistic.

Is the chappie with the wee keg and the walking stick/staff on the same "base" as the other models? If so I think I've found the leader for my Mordheim Kislevites

I need to acquire plastic Skavenslaves, can you help?
I have a blog now, evidently. Featuring the Alternative Mordheim Model Megalist.

Beautiful work as always, Tre.

A shame my eyesight has deteriorated to the point where making out details on any truescale model is hard yakka - I can't see enough to paint anything. Otherwise I'd grab me more of your stuff.

Very nice sculpts as usual Tre.

Please can we have some pictures to show what scale these are? Preferably next to some mini's from other manufacturers?

Can you show the figures on 25mm bases, not those oh-so-confusing 20mm round bases that you often use?

Thanks ShieldWolf and Everybody!

Yodhrin, Yes I strive to keep all RBG minis in identical scale. It is impossible to keep them perfectly in scale with each other but I think I keep it as close as it gets.

And yes these are all pictured on 25 mm round wooden discs. I am doing away with the 20 mm round bases from here on. And yes I will also put up some scale pics with figures from other manufacturers. I have found that my scale is identical to Infinity....or at least the few Infinity figs that I have on hand.

Remember that these figures are just the initial offering I am still working on more of them for the campaign as funding allows.

The new sculpts look great. In regards to Tradkarl's club I can see what you mean about it not being a perfect fit. The current club does remind me a bit of wooden war clubs used by Native American tribes but doesn't give off a good Norse vibe. I think a straight stave with metal bands, maybe studded metal bands around the top end would look good. I think it can work as is and I think Tradkarl wouldn't look right if you made it a hammer or axe, a staff/club fits him best.

I like the way some of the new Norse sculpts have a bit of a Laplander look to them. It reminds me that it's almost the time of year when I get to watch the movie Rare Exports again.

And great work on the models as always as well.

Will this line scale well with the Super Secret Game That Is Red Box's Next KS too?

I know the aesthetic might be 'off' a bit, but I was wondering about the overall scale...

It funded quite fast, and is now very close to the first stretch goal which sees the arrival of the Aenglish. A good strong start. I Iike all the miniatures on show actually.

The Aenglish are really up to my taste, and it's a pity not more than a handful of people are interested in getting these in resin rather than metal. :/

Yeah, I got all of the resin heroes in the last campaign, but evidently there weren't very many of us who did. Tre's metal is awesome though, so I'm not all that fussed about it.

No, I agree. Metal is great for his stuff, but I still want 'em in resin.

My hobby time last week was spent on Tre's Goblin/Dwarf/Orc KS and his Norse KS. The single piece models are great in metal, and his multipart ones are lovely enough once made to get me over my distaste for multipart metals.

Definitely going in on this one, probably for everything.
Will just need to sort out my credit card first.

Tre, looks like the new model of smaller KS is really working for you, which is fantastic.

New sculpts and WIP's are up, along with some discussion of rejigging the order of stretch goals. I'm loving these armored Aenglish personally.

The Aenglish looks great.

Trodax, you need to rally up some more support for the resin so we can get some of those, too! These would be even more awesome in resin than in metal.

Are the barbarians available on the web store? At work I can't access it, but after working on one last night, I think I might need some more.

I'm really liking those Aenglish, especially since I don't really have anything like them in my collection. I'm sure I'll be in for a couple.
