It is a 34mm, i have 16mm left over which i will try to join to another 16mm from my next grey knight to make a 32mm piece (so i can get 3 GKs out of 2 strips) but it might prove to be impossible

@ zinge, is there a way of making belts longer than 50mm?

Nice stuff dude, can't wait to see what else you come out with, bookmarked.

zinge wrote:@targetawg

That looks like most of a single belt which are approximately 50mm long.

The resin is flexible and has a shore hardness of around 60D (for those in the know) for aveage joes like me and you its a bit like Haribo (doesn't taste as good though) or cured green stuff.

Ah, excellent comparison. I think I may be in need of these in that case..my poor wallet

@cc88

How long would you want them? Any thing particular in mind?

100mm would be better as that way I can easily get 3 GKs out of 1 belt.

Also I have painted the GK that I made and will throw some pics up later.

EDIT:

Unfortunately I really don't like the basing so may buy some resin bases for my grey knights

Looking good there cc88

My molds have just started to fail so I need to make new ones.

I will certainly make longer small belts not sure if I can do 100mm.

Does anybody have any requests for belt types that I missed or changes they would like to see to current belts?

Any redesigns need to be done ASAP so I can carry on supplying.

Cheers

Chunky shotgun shells, please!

Not you again with your bl**dy shotgun shells

What length and diameter?

I don't have the dimensions to hand. I could have sworn I emailed them to you though when we first discussed them.

That was like ages ago! - Found em - will see what I can do

Smells like cookies - sucks to be you guys - back later!

What's the good word at Zinge Industries? You've been awfully quiet of late!

Second the shotgun shells.

niceguyteddy wrote:Second the shotgun shells.

your name is "niceguyteddy", and in your sig you say you're dissapointed with not getting to kill anyone?!
I third the shotgun shells.

Very nice stuff, all of it

Will have to make a large purchase very soon!

I would like to suggest a few things:

- UMP.45s Please, please!!
- P90s
- Raffica pistol would be nice, but tricky
- Claymores!
- Cogs and mechanicals wheels etc

Keep up the great work!

Ola Dakinies - Greetings from planet busy as f**k.

I have just put the finishing touches to a bunch of stuff (still needs cleaning and finishing etc)

Benchs and table made of oak (not to be cast - for my garden)

Working on resculpts for belts

About to start making mold of the final 4 pistols:

Beretta style pistol

Quad barrel flint lock

Revolver

smg (Vitruvian - stay tuned for this)

Also cllaymore - sword? mine? Pics are really helpful

Cogs and wheels in the works

Thanks for the kind words!

More stuff as and when it appears

Oh sorry Cant for the life of me get the googl pics to show up so heres the links instead.

I meant the mine, Laser Claymore or Traditional Claymore
UMP.45
P90

I would love it if you made a traditional claymore sword that would be to scale with a "bulkier" 28 mm model (space marines).

You would receive a lot of orders from me if you did that.

Catastrophe - Unfortunately I have had to scrap my pistol mold.

All pistols shown here

http://www.freewebstore.org/Zinge-Industries/1+Resin+Pistol/p658641_3121552.aspx

are no longer available and the mold is toast! The masters are in a poor state too!

Dang!

ouch....seems that you are the first out there that has to copy his own stuff from hkmsef to get his moulds back...how did this happen?

That's a catastrophous disatraphe!

I hope you can get a fresh mould on the go soon. I didn't get a chance to buy any yet!

Shazzam!

Got some good and bad news:

Bad News:

Postage costs gone up

Material costs gone up


Good news:

Bought a vacuum pump - better casts less errors


Result:

Most items will stay the same price.

Pistols pictured below are now cheaper £4 a sprue of 10 or £0.45 each (nearly 20%)

Anyone who has bought pistols previously will get a little bonus if they reorder anything.

Cheers

Kit

Wow, those are fantastic!

I'm literally hours away from finishing my dissertation and I've ordered some more humans for my Necromunda gang. I think I'll put in an order!

i too think this handgun assortment looks perfect for `munda weapons!

When will the new pistols be available?

Ola,

All being well I will do it this evening.

Cheers

How about this for a suggestion.
Ork Shoota Equivalents
Bulky and "heroic" looking.

Background:
With the release of AOBR and the plethora of slugga/choppa boyz in the box, they are quite plentiful and cheap on ebay and some of the discount sites.
People purchase whole 100 model hordes of them when they start playing WH. Then 6 months later, when they realize that:
1.) Ork Shooting is awesome
2.) WYSIWYG is generally enforced and preferred a lot of places.
They decide that they would love to glue shootas to the back of all their Ork boyz so that they can WYSIWYG either slugga OR shoota boyz when they play.

You make sprues of Ork style shootas then they should sell like crazy.
I myself would order a solid 50-60 of them.

Example.

Wicked cool ideas for bitz!

@palehorse - me or him (matphat)?

Although I may do some pirate themed ones - if there is interest

Yeah, I really can't stand those for some reason.
And with only three styles.
And one of them literally makes your mini take up
twice as much space due to the lateral clip.
I think a second option would be grand.
I think Zinge pistols look so much better too.
Not to mention what his shoota could look like.

Ooh, I'd be interested in those.

Quick heads-up about the pistols you just added - they're not all in the drop-down box. Is that intentional?

Nope im and idiot.

hand flamer/inferno pistol
mauser C96

Desert eagle
M1911

misc. SMG

things I want (sorry if you've said you're currently doing these WIP)-
walther MPL
flintlock
AA-12

if you do the AA12 i definatly cant keep away from ordering from you^^...for now i wanted to keep my money to myself^^ but then i think all hope will be gone^^

A needle pistol would be nice, but flintlocks rock. Flintlock rifles would be nice too.

I will certainly start a list of ideas for the next sprue of pistols but thats in the future.

Here is my first Necromunda Redemptionist sporting a rather spiffy hand flamer

What do you reckon?

cool.

looks really cool, my only thought rising in my brain is (while still conditioned by GW...but only slightly so^^) wher is the fuelcharge? or do i see something not that is to be seen?

The fuel cell is behind the nozzle thats all you need in a flame pistol:

Nozzle, Tank, Hand grip, gauge if feeling fancy

so this is the horizontal bit thats above the hand...ok...suitable convinced^^

I rather like it.

Some pistols of a vaguely old-fashioned steampunk/pirate look would nicely complement your current range.

And some shoota-compatible big guns would also be popular with orks - true orks like a variety of weapon looks, none of that namby-pamby bulk manufacturing for them

Can you make some Tau bits? Perhaps some form of Crisis Suit head swap or addition? Would love to see some Tau centric bits. Maybe some form of armor plating for the tanks, unit insignia type stuff, etc. Nothing too obvious, sure, but something useful none-the-less.

Also, some Dark Eldar stuff would be amazing. Not a lot out there right now, would love some bits to make Wracks with, such as heads swaps and or bits to add to warriors/wyches, etc.

I have plenty of basic shootas, but I'd appreciate something bigger and with more barrels that could be used for Flash Git Snazzguns and bike-mounted Dakkaguns.

I think the other thing I could argue against the Kromlech post-apok shootas, is that they are pretty generic.
Make a sprue of 10 that are rather Orky, and I bet you'll sell out.

Great for using on renegade guards men.
Will have to get some!

your store Page doesnt seem to be working anymore as i was about to bookmark it

I like the look of the pistol sprues. Might pick up a few for the nazi zombie project.

Seems ok now - anybody else having issues?

Great looking pistols! I think you have hit on another winner with them!

New Product update:

Ladders - 75mm / 3 inch long Pic with the cities of death ladder for comparisson below.

Great for Necromunda Scenery.

Omg, ive been waiting for stuff like those for years!!

God bless you man. *wipes tear from eye*

Would it be possible for you to make a few larger ones as well? Say a 4" and a 5" ladder as opposed to only 3".

They will stack pretty well - cut off top uprights then pin

Fair point

Oh snap, those ladders are gorgeous.

Allrighty then

Ladders up on the store:

http://www.freewebstore.org/Zinge-Industries/1_Resin_Ladder/p658641_3531365.aspx

ooh cool. If I find myself in need of any ladders, I'll know where to look.

needs for ladders at this early morning time???

Zinge those ladders are great! i've got some ambitious modelling ideas already swirling around to use them for! fantastic stuff, I love the fact that you seem to put products out that I never think I need until i see them on Dakka and go "oh hell yeah I need that for...."

Those ladders look great, but it would be good to know how long each section of ladder is as it does not say so in the summary

Since you have gone to the trouble of Necromunda style ladders why not Necromunda style bulkheads........please?

@ Notprop

Great minds think alike

thanks, and from what i can see atm the stuff is brilliant... and i got a nice lil extra pieces as well...always nice to get a bit of a icing on a already sweet cake^^


vik

Hi Vik - glad you like the bits,

Thought it would have been there ages ago was posted a day or 2 after payment cleared.

I don't use any mold release so you don't need to clean it.

Take care if sanding/filing it use a mask and ventilation.

Review and pics would be great

Cheers

Kit

oki, will do as recommended!
speccialy i am grateful for the propeller bits... these tempted me quite a bit but i kept composed^^ next time i will order them too^^

Alrighty Then,

I am having a sale - The molds for my flexible belts & cables have all failed and when I retool the new products will be different.

So here is a chance to grab some belts at a barging price.

Cheers

Order placed!

Order Filled! - post it on Tuesday - If that Life thing that everyone talks about doesnt get in th eway!

(Trying to avoid making a finecast quip)

the tesla coils are very good looking , i can vouch for that^^

Flexible ammo Belts and power cables are £0.30 each (30p each)

Original price £1 (£5 for a set of 5)

Cheers

Kit

That sale caused me to order a bunch of stuff from you.

zinge, that price slash better last until I get back home from holiday *shakes fist*

Really think those tesla coils are a must for orky conversions. Nice work.

*mumbles: grrr * "ordered too fast...such is life..."

Awesome -- I've just placed a £15 order, having been tempted by the discounts.

When do you expect to have more of the large fans in stock?

@ Hatemonger,

Just updated my site stock - happened to be casting them last night.

i just ordered a ton of stuff from you (posting to my missus as im never in to recieve the post!) - lookin forward to upping my mechanicus boys with this lot!

Flexible powercables all but gone,

Large ammo belts nearly gone, Small belts stil a few left

Hopefully new belts will start to appear before the end of the month.

I ordered some of your power cables in the sale and got them amazingly quickly. I'm very impressed with them, they are going to look great on my tech marine conversion! Thanks for the tester bits in the package with it as well.

Can't wait for the ammo belts to come back in stock. Need quite a few for my next project.

Those tesla coils are what I need! They seem to be out of stock! oh noes!

As an ork trying to make some KFF stuff for a meka dred and a KFF dred for a dredmob I could use a bunch of them.

And an assortment of ammo belts for mah lootaz.

I will put the tesla coil stock back up and cast furiously for the next few days - they seem to be rather popular.

@ Grief_Bringer I aim to please and the new belts will hopefully be something special

Cheers

Power cables gone man solid gone!

Had a request for tentacles - sounds like fun any body else interested and who/what would use them?

Cheers

Kyt

tentacles sound interesting but currently no use tho nurgle and nid players would definatly benifit from that...

Anyone can make plain tentacles with GS, but tentacles with suckers and other interesting scaly/sluggy textures would certainly be appealing.

as he said^^

Doesn't the Chaos Spawn prvide us with all the tentacle bits we need?

not rather a question of needs but wants^^

Forgot the Japanese market

aye!

Not to mention the tentacles could be made with the Flexible Ammo Belt technology..

THAT would be ace..

would bring lots of options for cool dioramas

Glad I got them! I plan on slapping them on my Kan Wall as recievers for the KFFs that will be escorting them around..

They are great bits! Thanks again Zinge!

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the kind words Master Melta

Looking Good Viktor

Replacement belts are taking a while - but I have found a few more belts and power cables, which are now up on the site.

Cheers

Kit

Was going to email this, but decided it would be better for zinge for me to post it.

I ordered my stuff a week or so ago.
It took a little while to get to me, enough that I emailed him, his response was very quick and accurate.

the package arrived yesterday.
Not only did zinge include what I ordered, I got a baggy of extra, slightly miscast stuff that he probably should sell normally as a free bonus.
the parts are beyond good for the price, in the days of chapterhouse selling a single $20 backpack, the fact I can outfit nearly my entire grey knight army with belted ammo for 10 bucks is absurdly awesome.

Zinge- what size is that ammo belt on the "28mm armoured space hero" that your using? cause i wants me some of them. Crackin conversion mate! sweet.

Hi,

Thanks for the interest I would say that SA2, SA3 & SA5 would work



Stocks are low though 4, 3, 10 respectively (SA1 would work - but all gone)

New range of belts & feeds coming soon at normal price (£1 each)

Cheers

Kit

Evenin All,

One of my pet hates when I am modelling is dropping a bit and watching it bounce off into the unknown, when it hits the ground. (so much time spent looking for bits - grrr)

So to counter that may I present the Crotch Guard (tm).

This heavy duty PVC apron catches dropped marine heads and orky shootas. It also catches shavings from mold line clean up when you are watching TV.

The clips fix to your belt or pants so it will stay in place and the pelican scoop at the bottom means your bits wont fall to the floor either when you stand up

Also gives my manhood half a chance should I drop my scalpel!

Lol

When can i get one!

bet it might be possible to make one of your own... but if you sell these...i bet they sell^^

I only made it coz I can be really cack-handed sometimes.

But if interested they are £10 each avaiable in red, blue, yellow or black.

Technically, you can already a similar product from Micro-Mark - an apron that velcros to your desk. Looks like jewelers use them? anwyay.

The real reason I can to this thread was because I had an idea, and you seem to like hearing them. One thing I think would be easy to make, easy to cast, and would sell well would be rocket launchers. I'd start with a styrene tube, pack it in the middle somewhat, and add flip-up sights and possibly a grip. Possibly something like a LAW? You could also make a backpack full of rockers, and sell them as conversion kits to convert Ork Boyz into Tankbustas, maybe include a few rockets with handles on them. So far as I know, neither GWS nor FW nor any other conversion making studio currently makes such a kit, and would be a prime time since Tankbustas are very pricy now, with finecast. Don't make them too Orky, can also use them for SM scouts I imagine.

Or not, as you like. Just throwing it out there.

Also, pirate hats! Tricorn and otherwise.

second the idea of a LAW weapon...good idea Ouze

@ouze - saw that and thought it would be a right pain in the neck - literally.

LAW - good idea Ill chuck it on the pile

Pirate hats like this?

Flamekebab wrote:Pirate hats would be good. Suitable weapons would be good too!

How about these hats:

Some gun and weapon concepts:






Cheers

Kit

are those orks yours? if so then these guns look so awsome... a very good addition and i think folks would claw their way to get some of these...

Yup they are mine thanks very much,

The guns are just ideas and kit bashes at the moment.

Might try to make a non IP inftinging kit out of them at some point.

where did you get then all those canon looking barrels? these alone would be a great addition...

Zinge what's the estimated release date for the new ammo belts?

@ Orinoco - didn't see your post there. New belts coming shortly 2-3 weeks

First power cable sprue is nearly ready - see below for 1st test cast.

Soon to be available for tech heads:

flickering yellow and red leds. 3mm dia heads - 3v to 3.6v nice and bright (video is a bit dark)

Great for fire & lantern effects etc.

Pictures ASAP

Love those tiny cannon guns. I reckon you can't go wrong with pirate accessories - even though other 3rd party manufacturers do some, anyone wanting a whole pirate-themed army will be wanting as many variations as possible. Separate hats (designed so that the customer chops off the top of an ork's head to fit underneath the hat) are a good idea - mostly I've seen entire pirate heads with fixed hats, which gives less flexibility for swapping.

Some large flexible power cables would be awesome like the titan ones if they had magnets in them even better for different weapon options available.

@sonofruss - something in the works (months not weeks though)

Sorry for the poor quality pictures - too excited to get something up this weekend!

Couple of new pre production casts:

M16 Mutant size and a 19mm Dia wheel

Ork arms require a bit of work to get round the stock - may need to make some specific arms.

Small wheels 9.5mm Dia useful to anyone (see 4th pic)

Cheers

Kit

Loving them both!

Those wheels look really good.

Bugger... I'd been hoping for someone to come up with some nice off-road wheels, and then these show up after I just finished building half a dozen quads...

cool an ork with a M4...very tempting...and the wheell looks very good!

just thought I'd throw this in:

fantastic gun zinge

@ Everyone - Thanks for the kind words.

@ Insaniak - I am going as fast as I can.

@ Shrike - Looking awesome

Can't wait for the wheels! Once they are for sale I'll be ordering a bunch of them and a few sprues of tesla coils!

Well I shall hop to it toot sweet (answers on a post card)

thanks for the comments!
anything in the works as I post? ^^

Check out my first post things are moving - slowly - but don't they always?

M16 and 19mm Diameter wheel looking good. Will you also be doing a similar larger diameter wheel (approx 27mm, i.e. to match the battlewagon front wheels and trukk back wheels?)

@ Clang

Looking into it I will see how these wheels go - But probably

Just went back to look at the first page, what are the multi-part mechbots? If they were infantry sized i'd be all over them (i would be whatever the size actually!! )

Mechbots are just a concept that I like the idea of - no solid designs as yet - waiting for inspiration to strike - people can make requests - which may galvanise me into action.

Love the M16s..make the arms and I'll order a good few!

Arms will take little while.

Just poured 2nd half of the new large ammo belts mould. Test casting on sat/sun - stay tuned.

These are so much better than before!

sounds good!

Hi Guys,

Bunch of updates:

Large Ammo Belts mold is a success (see below)

New sprue consits of 6 Belts at least 80mm long:

1. Large Shotgun Shells 5.5m long 2.5mm diameter

2. 'Y' shaped belt feed 4mm x 1.9mm

3. Linked Block feed 4mm x 2.2mm

4. Small Shotgun Shells 4mm x 1.8mm

5. Small Bullets 4.5mm x 1.6mm

6. Large Bullets 5.5mm x 2.1mm

Belts have much sharper detail - which means I will be remodeling a couple of projects.

Better pictures when I have samples painted.

Price will be £6 for the set or £1.20 each.

I am off on holiday on Friday for 2 weeks so hopefully will update webstore before then.

Cheers

Kit

Wow, they look far sharper. Great improvement there bud!

Those look bloody fantastic. Great job, Kit!

Those look terrific. I'm kinda glad I waited now. Putting in an order tonight.

Cool stuff, finally got the items sent on via the UK thanks for the extra bits, very useful for objective markers (stuff to loot). The wheels and the rifle are neat, definitely up for more of those, what did you do to make the ork carry the m16? (Don't have my boyz to hand to see how the default arms are posed)

There's two sets of wheels on the site now. I can see the sizes, sure, but are they both compatible size-wise with something GW make, or just the big one?

Just the larger one!

Are you going to be doing Orky AKs? Your M4s are fantastic.

I wish I still played guard as those bullet chains are epic!

Great work on those new ammo belts! They're getting more and more tempting

@ Flamekebab

When are the new ammo belts going to be available? I wants.. I wants bad

Really enjoyed the site mate, interesting stuff there, I am going to grab some stuff for some imperial guard tanks conversions thanks a lot

Crap, I just realized that I could really use those "Y"-shaped belts, and when I looked at the store it said you were sold out. X)

@ Sidstyler

They will be back - Just better!

@ Koppo hopefully this weekend I will get some stock made and the site updated!

Next bits out of the mold: Clear Warning lights and bulkhead lights

Warning lights 5mm & 10mm Dia

Bulkhead lights 5mm, 10mm & 15mm Dia

Bits have a recess in the back for an LED.

Light in picture is 5mm and has been painted red with sepia wash.

Cheers

Ok, that is freaking awesome...

@ Insaniak

Thanks!

You always make the coolest bits! I love the light covers.

If I wanted to order a large collection of the 19mm off-road wheels (more than you have in stock) is that something I can do without having to just order what you have and then wait? I'd need 30 or so...

@ Steamdragon.

For larger orders contact me directly and we can work something out.

Cheers

Quick test on some necro scenery

some off the lights will be fixed yellow, using flickering effect for dodgy wiring

So awesome....

A little something I did with your bits:

Awesome Loota I love it when people play with my bits

Lol

Those LED covers are beyond cool! If you buy your LEDs online, could you give me the link? Been meaning to mess around with lights and this seems like the perfect opportunity!

Right this way sir! ->

As for normal LEDs I just use ebay - Fluckering ones were a b**ch to find.

Small lenses need 3mm LEDs

Good man!

I will be stocking 3v batteries and micro switches that fit under bases - soon ish

Get my mold working properly first!

Now, those micro switches I'd LOVE to see... I never did get a good solution for my own "light-up" Thousand Sons aside from popping the battery in and out of the battery clip. Not that I'm likely to go back and re-convert/base the whole army, but it'd be interesting to see what other options folks come up with.

Neat thanks, that helps a lot

Will order some rifles when I next get around to getting things amassed at my parents place to send over.

for an easy fix you can change the rifle on these arms

To do the batt things correctly you need to be able to change out the batt or it is a one shot deal. looking forward to more tho

Ola,

Battery is removable (just held in with wire) Soon to be improved.

Stay tuned for more updates on LED bits.

Nice. For my own LED-equipped Thousand Sons, I ended up using a clip mount like these:

http://shopping.microbattery.com/Part-BH-2032-CH28-Lithium-2032-Battery-Holder-Horizontal-Clip-Mount-28mm

I had Big John of Gale Force 9 (before they made it "big" ) custom cut me some bases out of wood that could hold the clip. I'm guessing you could get something better from some place like Shapeways now as the sides are straight and not beveled. The clip did mean that my bases ended up being closer to 32mm across and significantly taller than "normal" bases. But they do allow you to swap the batteries out easily.

But they didn't leave a lot of room for a switch. So for mine, it's "Battery in, lights on..."

This is all bringing back some memories... I haven't thought about the mechanics of the LED-equipped Thousand Sons for quite a few years now...

Valete,

Some nice looking stuff - Wheels are always good, but not impressed with the GWish price tag you have - £1.10 per wheel? Are you kidding? I can get plastic lego wheels for about 30p

Jimmi

That. Is. So. AWESOME.
are you selling them DIY or as premade symbols?

Anybody Building a Titan?

Master model made by Liam Ainscough - Few issues to sort before production.

Just after some feed back.

Belt is 250mm x 18mm x 7.5mm

that looks as if you should start making treads for tanks... that would be certainly someting i would strongly consider in my next shopping visit at your shop! that mega belt looks as if it is a nice omen in that direction anyway^^

Just placed an order for a bunch of telsa coils and a few other items!

Just got my first order through and I have to say I was not expecting to much from this being a small business but WOWWW Great stuff Really happy with these. I got some of the ammo belts which are way better than I thought they would be and the fact they are so bendable is even better , I also ordered some vents and fans which have turned out quite nice as well plus I got a load of extra stuff SO BIG THANKS FOR THAT AS WELL !!!!!!!. So big thumbs up to you Zinge , great suff well made great communication and fast delivery thanks for a great transaction there are a lot of companies out there that could take some notice of this kind of customer care well done will be back soon for more that is for sure.

I got my first order yesterday (a sprue of belts and two coiled cables). I must say that I am impressed. I'll pop up some photos but suffice to say that while this was my first order there are likely to be many more in my future.

I'm not sure how well the paint will stick to them but that test a few weeks away as yet.

At the moment I'm very much recommending Zinge and his products.

@ Koppo

Painting should not be a problem as I don't use mold release and the resin takes paint well just don't flex it too much when painted!

Cheers

Kit

Any idea when you're going to have the small ammo belts back in stock?

@ Von Voytz

My ass is very much in gear - I poured the second half of the mold last night so First test cast of the new small ammo belts will be tonight.

Stay tuned!

Cheers

Kit

That looks cool the titan ammo belt if it looked more orky it would be cool the imperial and chaos guns have ammo hoppers built in we need cables really big cables the ones that come with the titans are a pita to use.

@ Sonofruss - Just gaugeing intrest.

But thanks

Okay time for a bit of good news bad news good news

Good news

Small ammo belts mold works well and they wil be up on the store soon (See below for details)

Bad news

The small shot gun shells have the mold line in the wrong place and thus are not up to spec

Good news

I will not charge for the shotgun shells as part of the sprue (a little bonus that could be a pain to clean up.)

Detaiils:

Belt 1: Linked block 75mm x 3.2mm x 1.4mm

Belt 2: Tiny enclosed bullets 75mm x 2.5mm x 1.4mm

Belt 3: Small enclosed bullets 75mm x 3mm x 1.9mm

Belt 4: Small shotgun Shells 75mm x 2.9mm x 1.2mm

Belt 5: Double exposed bullets belt 75mm x 2.5mm x 1.8mm

How will the new small ones look on Stormbolters, ie Grey Knights?

Im also wondering

Just ordered a trio of Mauser pistols, they'll go nicely with my Naval Intelligence officer.

Hi OP, really nice store at the moment, but I have a small question: I want to purchase one of the wire cables shown here for 55p, but am I right in saying that postage for that item is £2? I only need one, and am short on paypal at the moment.

Thanks.

I forgot to add that I don't want to sound like I'm being tight, and I understand as you are running a business!

Just got spacemarine for my Bidet - so things may slow down for a while.

Will try and sort pics ASAP of the GK with ammo belts

whats the world coming to...one has to wonder...in my time peeps just had a porn mag on the throne and maybe the paper...what with all this new technology now they even use computer games there...*shakes head*

have you thought about that tank treads comment from me for a sec?

You wager your donkey I have.

Got something in the pipeline that may interest you (hopefully something before the end of the month)

now thats something i like to hear^^

Steelmage99 wrote:How will the new small ones look on Stormbolters, ie Grey Knights?

doesn't really show very well, but quite good

Hi Grundz - some awesome looking GKs there.

Thanks for sharing.

They are the large linked block belts.

The small will be available very shortly

Cheers

Hi Guys,

Just updated the site with:

Small Ammo Belts & Flexible Power Cables,

And some better pics

lovley belts... i think i will wait till you spill some other beans and than i place an order^^

I'm still new to the hobby, just finished my previous model and I got inspired for my next model. But for it, I need a lot of ammo!

I was dreading having to model all of it by green stuff and it was hard to find online (I couldn't just type "I need belts of ammo!" in to google of course) but after some searching I found this thread and visited your store. I like the setup and I liked a lot of the other things on the store there so I figured I'd grab a few of the cool things laying around as well, I'm sure I'll find a use for them eventually. Then I remembered how poor I am and how much money the GW models cost so I had to tone it back a bit

I am just about to place an order of, 5 large ammo belts, 5 small ammo belts, and one full sprue of the power cabling (Damn the weak USD). I'll make another post once I receive them. Its the little details like exposed cabling and these ammo belts that really bring a unique feel to a mini.

Looks like I will be placing an order sooner than I thought……… mind you I might wait till the end of the month if you think it will be ready by then you know what I am talking about

Poured 2nd Half of new molds this evening - Test cast tomorrow of AK47s and a new product!

*rubs hands*

Previously used some fans/grills on my scratch built landing platform.

Just bought a flexible ammo belt to stick on my attack bike's heavy bolter. Really looks much more dangerous now than the basic HB model, much more in keeping with the old metal tac model.

Hi Fella - would love to see some pictures!

Cheers

Kit

Hi Guys,

New molds are pretty good - couple of tweaks needed.

First up are the AK47s in Large mutant scale and human size.

and a set of Ammo Boxes/Drums suitable for a range of weapons.

See below for some pics on some popular guns.

Cheers

Kut

Oooh! Oooh!
When can we buy the AKs?

Hey Fella,

Thought you might be interested!

Will hopefully add them to the store this weekend!

Cheers

Keet

cool amo drums! would you care to also make the curved amomags of the AK as a seperate item? i would love to get my hands on some seperate mags...

Yeah no problem, 1 free curved mag with every AK47 bought (pre-assembled)

lol... somehow you have to admitt i meant something else...

LOVE the round ammo drums - will we be able to buy just those, in large amounts?

No you can buy everything in large amounts!

(yes)

Magazines turned out well and the AK's look pretty nice to just have to ask how did the mould pouring turn out then

I've got a question for you, Kit. Are you still doing vinyl decals?

Are they transparent, or do you do colours, monochrome, etc. ?

I'm creating a Gorkamorka mob using the Outlaw Motorcycle Club rules and lack the skills to paint logos repeatedly. Currently I don't have a logo but I've got a cunning plan and can get the art created. Before I do that I'd like to know how these things work so I know what to ask for. I'll be ordering some stuff from you as soon as the AKs are on your shop

Hello boys and girls,

Busy weekend!

@ Lone Dirty Dog - AKs and Magazines were the mould - and they turned out vey nice!

@ Flamekebab - Vinyl Decals are still available see p18 of this thread for a quick step by step. Not sure what you mean by transparent or colour in this context. email me your ideas to discuss.

AKs & Magazines/Drums are up on the store

When are the human sized AKs going up?

Edit - ah they're squirrelled away under the resin pistols.

In the picture of the drums, what is the name of the one all the way on the left (The round drum that replace the regular magazine on a bolter)?

Hi Alpharius,

Hi the far left one is the inset drum, I will redo the pictures as soon as I have a full set painted (the one missing is the underslung drum) pics tonight hopefully.

Cheers

Kit

So when ordering that one, I would select #2, right?

And that price is a for a single piece?

Also, what # is the round drum built for a Storm Bolter? (The second from the left in the picture)

And... when will they be in stock?

Thanks!

I will hopefully redo the picture with attached numbers tonight and stock added hopefully tonight.

yes they are £0.35 ea. or £1.50 a set

Might make more moulds of single designs if there is demand.

Cheers

Kit

OK, numbers on the picture would be great.

Once they're on there, and there is stock in the store, I'll be placing an order!

Last Ammo Drum Pic + updated the site

Cheers

I see I thought you meant the mould pouring was for the but know I see I was wrong ….I will be after some stuff soon just got to work out what ..

Yes you were on the wrong TRACK, what you are alluding to is still a month out.

Cool bits..the ak looks a ok!

@ Ruminator - That looks awesome thanks for sharing.

Gonna be at Gamesday on Sunday (UK) will be wearing a Zinge Industries T-shirt Say hi if you spot me.

New 19mm wheel sprue is up and running

Wheels now £1 each or £3.60 for the sprue


Chyears

Kut

that name tag of yours looks extra cool, you should make something with that typostyle...i bet that would sell too...

I'm very pleased with the big AKs and M4s I ordered. The smaller AKs seem a little tinier than I expected though, even in the hands of grots. Oh well, I'm sure I'll eventually find a good home for them.

Do you think those Bolter drums would look good on IG Heavy stubbers and Heavy Bolters?
I seriously don't use H. Bolters ATM, but in the future i might.

@ Flamekebab - Small AKs are more human size than grot (might do some more)

@alarmingrick Will have a play tonight and put some pictures up.

Also got some grey knights in for sizing pics.

I am getteing requests for 28mm (Trukk and waggon) sized wheels similar to the 19mm any intrest?

Can't hang round here all day chatting gotta make tracks.

That pun was painful, Kit!

The small AKs look fine in the hands of WargamesFactory models but look kinda puny in the hands of Cadians.

Depending on price I'd be interested in larger wheels.

Edit: by the way, do you 3D print your products and then mould them?

To copy-paste the review I put on the Zinge site yesterday: "I ordered a trio of heavy Mauser blasters a.k.a. the Han Solo pistols, both for my Rogue Trader character and any future conversion work in mind. The pistols require some cleaning up that's common with resin bits, namely removal of flash, vents and tabs, but nothing severe or uncommon if you've worked with resin before. Cleaning aside the casts are of an excellent quality with no bent barrels and quite made of a sturdy material that doesn't bend easily or break when handled poorly. All in all good quality and I will most certainly make future purchases here!"

Seriously guys, if you like the stuff you get, don't forget to post up a review on the site itself!

@ BrookM thanks for that (glad the bits turned up ok) - didn't know I had reviews on the site - awesome!

Expect previews of the next kit shortly

Also off on Monday up to Scotland for a week long wildcamping canoe trip on the Spey. So I will not be sending orders out for that week.

Cheers

Kit

Coming up to Scotland, eh? Bring me something nice here in Edinburgh!

I will be at the Rachmaninov concert in Edinburgh on Friday night - my missus is seeing what happens when I get introduced to culture ??


First preview below

Fungus?

I like being cryptic - or annoying - not sure which is most fun!

Oooh, like the big(?) gear. Might come in handy later when I'm done sketching up that ship bridge I'm planning.

A bridge you say?

how about some smaller cogs?

Ooh, a combination of both would be suitably Ad-Mech and useless, just the way the Imperium likes its ships.

Those parts would look great if attached to a tracked cannon that fires thunderous bolts

Next bits are not quite as exciting!
