Ola,
Attached are some pics of some freshly moulded bits.
I tried to preserve the vents, gates and flash.
The largest wheel is 32mm and smallest 11.5mm
There are 29 links in the assembly shown.
A set would consist of 2 large wheels, 2 medium wheels. 2 bogies and 80 links.
Bits will also be available seperately and later as sets of X number of wheels etc
Anymore info please just yell!

An idea for you. Perhaps rather than having your vinyl stickers available in custom patterns only, you could have a few standards. Things like sergeant and officer rank for IG, arrows for troops, skulls with wreaths for HQ, chaos symbols for heretics. Things that don't infringe on IP but are commonly used. Just something to be considered.

Hi Guys,
Awesome Trip Canoeing, camping, rachmaniov, chainsaws and more food than you can shake a felled tree at!
Back with loads of orders to fil and new moulds to make.
@ Fox Box - good to meet you Ben - will be selling the whole lot as a kit - price to follow and also each bit individually.
@noneoftheabove0 - Thats probably what I need to do - good idea.

This is a good idea great for IG troops with general use icons ( like you said no IP issues ) the raised look for a more detailed look on miniatures would bring a new depth, I would buy these then.

Post by: noneoftheabove0
I'm waiting for Defiance Game's USMC models to drop so I can start an IG army. If you haven't made some sergeant rank by then, expect an order from me. I've been trying to free hand simple symbols on my Space Wolves because I hate the transfers so much, but my free hand work looks somewhat worse. I could only imagine trying to draw out three chevrons, three rockers with a diamond in the middle. *shudder*
10028
Post by: zinge
Ok then lets start a wish list for a generic IG or other Scifi trooper insignia.
It cant be too detailed as the cutter cant handle really fine organic detail.
Sergeant stripes should'nt be a problem.
Also need an idea of size of the bits (where would you put it?)
Cheers
Kit

Post by: Viktor von Domm
definatly either should pads or if that would be possible on the sleeves...o the chest i think it would be far too tine as the IG chest could be then decorated easier with a slab of GS ...
as for what signs... private
sarge
and some officer markings...all done in the ^ fashion i think...
46491
Post by: noneoftheabove0
For something that would fit most armies, a single chevron for a private, three chevrons for a sergeant, some railroad tracks for a captain, maybe a star for generals and higher commanders, probably the standard one through ten in roman numerals to indicate squads. Oh, if you make an arabic numeral set in a scale small enough that two or three of them would fit on a Cadian shoulder pad, it would probably be a huge bonus for most. Like I said, I'll be working with different models, so it may not work for me, but if you base the squad numbers off Cadian shoulder pads, you can't go wrong. The rank would probably be best on a Cadian sleeve, chest, or shoulderpad.
28415
Post by: lone dirty dog
Pretty much covered all the aspects rank insignias, roman numerals, skulls basic shape like the transfers you can get numbers would not go a miss either, medical insignia (may be a couple of designs ) flame insignia that kind of thing all to fit shoulder pad of IG

All right looks like we have the makings of a nice set of markings - will start some scribbles.
Finally sorted a price for the tank tracks.
For a pair of tracks (Twice what is pictured below) the cost will be £19 (which automatically includes free postage worldwide at the moment)
I am now in urgent need of some good photos of these tracks both painted and not.
If anybody feels they could provide this service for this product I will atleast refund the cost of the product (exceptional quality may require further recompense). If you are intrested in this deal please pm me and we can talk specifics.

Those tracks do look nice but I have to say £19.00 that is quite expensive for a set of tracks don't get me wrong I can understand that there is your out lay production costs and all, however I think that would be a stretch of funds I was hoping they were going to be less than that. Have you got a picture for size comparison say with a miniature so we can have an idea of scale maybe that would help.

Dont get me wrong I do understand that there is a lot of work involved and pieces I just thought the price was a bit on the high side but I do think it is a nice kit and I am sure it will sell just for me it was on the costly side.
I do think if you can give a size comparison picture it might help to see if it will be worth the investment of what I was hoping to use it for.
I do love your work and have been happy with what I have had but I will always be honest with what I think but do not wish to offend.

I had an idea for you. It seems your ammo belts are pretty flexible, so how about vines?
Doing some thin vines like Ivy or some kudzu/creepers would be great for doing more senic bases. I have yet to find something that looks very good and making them myself is very intensive.

Ooh good idea! or even flexible tree armatures?

Yes I know, but the only thing that sticks to the unholy plastic they use is hot glue! Resin would hold better I think.

Some vines of some description could be rather handy, although I'm curious whether it'd be a good idea to do some as vinyl decals as well to provide a bit more depth to things.
24020
Post by: vitki
Yeah, the vinyl decals might work ok for making things like cammo netting or up the sides of buildings.
I don't think the decals would be 3D enough to add to bases or things like that though.

i think the germans still haven´t learned an essential lesson... and that i see a world that is coming to to think that rascists believe are to be covered in certain stupid ideas... some politics try to sooth them idiots by giving them small bitz of what they ask for and if you give them one finger they soon have them by their throats and we could then all be in a big war again... i know it sounds pretty dark and zomby nazi stuff here but sometimes when you see news about what has caused some fights in the streets or when you see nazis march on protests and see them get protection by the police for the sake of the democracy then you might catch the wrong ideas about the system i am living in... and you might even go so far as to stretch that cap america metaphor and think about a shadowy figure like red skull that is pulling some awful strings in the dark...you can´t really think for real that an ugly shrew like our chancellor is actually ruling this overpopulated country? i mean we are talking about the conservative germany here....

Well, IMO the greed just makes people poor, and when people are poor, crime rises, and soon people become uncivilized and grasp onto leaders and ideas. Generally because they are too afraid to think for themselves. It is easier to jump on a bandwagon, security in numbers.

Call me stupid but do you mean you are going to convert this bikes tires ? I was just wondering have you considered sculpting up some realistic looking bike tires ?. Its just I want to scratch build some bikes for my guard but there are no decent tires out their that would work some thinner more realistic ones would be good or a set of variety types like you would get for different kind of bikes. Its just the market does not really cater for this I would like to make some choppers for necromunda gangs and some for orks but there is nothing really out their maybe you could help out here.

Post by: zinge
So any input on diameters - widths and styles of tyres - not too bothered about PSI though
48594
Post by: dsteingass
Exactly half as wide as these, same diameter. Not too much tread, as it wouldn't make any sense at all to put off-road tires on a street bike.
10028
Post by: zinge
If I made thinner tyres would you need mud guards etc or cut down the existing?
Or would you want them intergral?
33713
Post by: RSJake
I think if you made thinner tires, you should make compatible mud guards. Or if they are for choppers, you don't really need mud guards I guess. But some might want the mud guards, so I say it's worth a shot.
28415
Post by: lone dirty dog
I just want some alternative "realistic" looking tires did not really think about the diameter to be honest as I was thinking of scratch building rather than using on existing models. As people have all ready mentioned is the kind of thing but I was hoping for some to work with IG and some for orks Without metal plates riveted all over them more along the forge world ork bike upgrade set. I guess ork wise I was looking at chopper style wheels larger in size but thiner in width some large back wheels with some decent tread pattern maybe some to build trikes with as well, IG wise all terrain wheels and road bike wheels keeping to the scale of IG not space marine bloated scale.

I got my order quite a while ago, but I was gone, so I didn't get to do anything with them for a while.
I got 10 of the small AK-47's:
Someone had menthioned either here, or in a review that the guns are a on the small side. Well, that is true, they are smaller in length than the IG las guns. But if you add a bit of plastic rod to the business end, and either a wire or wooden butt stock to the other end, like so:
You get a gun that is the same size as an IG weapon. As seen here: ( GW mini shown for scale purposes only)
I am very happy with them, and will be converting all of them in a similar fashion. Some with wire stocks and some with a wooden or composite stock.
I got lots more stuff too, but I haven't gotten around to using them yet.
Thanks Zinge!

I would like to see tank track wheels bigger than your current wheel size. Also various versions (like 8 or so)
Bare ork heads. Everybody is making nazi, command pirate and mexicano ork heads but nobody has bare ork heads (no helmet, no hair)
Bare ork torsos. I saw one set but that was really poor quality. Also open jacket (like that biker ork torso) torso would be cool.
Skulls, you can never have enough skulls. And I'm not talking about a set of 5 skulls more like something you start measuring in weight isntead of amount.

What I'd want, ideally, is something like the standard dreadnaught vision slit -- so a rectangular slit, with a rectangular frame, with rivets -- in a variety of sizes.
I might just make my own simpler ones out of plasticard though...

My order turned up today  all looks pretty good will try some bits out the wheels look great nice job on those and the small weapons are crisp they look even better here.
Thanks for the samples they will come in handy  that black tac stuff is like a cross between blutack and a putty works well mind and yes it is better, although I thought for a minute you sent me an unwrapped black jack  I thought the Christmas pressure had got to you.
I have to say the grey resin looks better than the old cream colour plus you can see the detail better  overall very happy will be back soon for some more stuff
10028
Post by: zinge
Great news!
Yes the new pistols have been tidied up and are slightly crisper - Awesome that you noticed.
Thats why most companies use grey - who would have thunk it?
The black tac needs working between fingers for a few minutes for full strength.Its ready when its hard to get off your fingers.
Let me know how you get on.

I want some of those bulkhead lights for my grot ship they will fit in nicely I don't mind if they are in standard resin as i will be painting mine anyway but they look just right, have you considered doing longer versions of the bulkheads so the middle is stretched so you get more a rectangle shape with curved ends version.

My order arrived safe and sound this morning.  ...The guns are lovely (revolver is just perfect) and the 1mm wire wrapped cable should be on every 40k converters desk! Ladders and resin cables are going to be useful for Inq and Necro terrain. I now need to build a model on a 40mm base so I can use the fans...I knew I should have gone for a smaller size when I ordered
Wish I'd made that gun order back in April like I originally planned.

Personally I think it was a bargain but there were some guys there who seemed to struggle.

The day is 10 til 6
The hellhound is built and primed and is treated as a canvas for the day. Lots of different techniques are tried on diffrent areas so at the end of the day it looks a mess but becomes a reference and trial piece.

Wrapped wires can be made longer but the process is difficult so they arent cheaper I can get up to 250mm fairly reliably which would cost £2.10 each any size.
Cheers

Zinge Those doors is there any chance of doing what I asked with these doors  the smaller size versions  I hope so seeing these would mean they would work perfectly Automatically Appended Next Post: will check the length I need and get back to you on that one I might get away with the normal ones by going another root but longer might be better

Wow, does the hinge action work without tedious drilling and pinning?

The hinges are interference fit to pins or bolts

@ Mr Dog, - Re doors I would probably design a new door at that size - If there is room on my hatch sprue.
Stay tuned

Meaning, the pins or bolts are integral to the hinge? or that the housing is open to accept a pin?
10028
Post by: zinge
No - There are no pins or bolts only an accurate cut groove that grps the door only good for positioning not "use" Automatically Appended Next Post: Although snap fit self hinging doors is quite appealing - anybody else think so?

Wouldn't snap-fit need to be made of something as hard as ABS?

Zinge@ have we anything new in the pipeline especially on the weapon front orky if you will

Post by: zinge
@ Mr Dirty - yes and some new ideas and some reworks of some old models that never really cast properly.
No details just yet - when I have rough casts I will be certain to post.
I have been doing some work for Anvil Industies (No relation) and my Girlfriends MA project (No relation - thank god)

Snap fit hingeswould be awesome!
I think its doable, just needs the right resin and hinge design i.e sufficient room for the part to "flex" without breaking..
Another option would be to design the door hinge pins so they "drop" down into the mounting brackets.. if that makes sense.. door could be removed by lifting upward but would normally just swing on the hinge..
Im trademarking the name "Zinge Hinge", you will have to purchase a licence to use it.. :p

The Zinge Inge Hinge (tm) is already used on the tracks - it needs refinement though

you really need to do a "with hand" version of the pistols, otherwise its a total nightmare to use them on a mini!
Otherwise looking good!

Post by: lone dirty dog
They have turned out well but I really have only use for the top one and maybe the bottom one, what scale Ork or human
These do look nice casts though detail is top's and crisp you are getting way to good at this , really could do with a larger blunderbuss type gun to match with the top pistol they would look so friggin cool with my Orks.
Any progress with work we discussed

Liking that flintlock a lot. Someday I hope to use it in my pirate necron conversion.

Post by: zinge
@Dog - Its rollin around my head if anything falls out I will let you know. These are Nob sized. @ Mr Pitt - definitely need hands on the revolver and flintlock probably left and right. @Ouze - Pirate necrons - that i gotta see!

the new guns look very good...highly detailed...i like that!

Post by: warhound123
The flintlock is awesome!
I do agree though, these really do need right and left handed versions (held) to allow modellers to adapt them easily.... although these 'loose' versions are also handy for being holstered up!
How about adapting the flintlock to be longer barrelled and like the witchhunter executioner pistol (with a brazier bit on the front?)
nice work as always!!

Now you are talking they are fething fantastic That Mauser is spot on and that hatch is really nicely detailed with updates like this I can see my wallet emptying quickly ……. Mind you your tax return will not be a problem lol
Let me now when they start falling mate Automatically Appended Next Post: Can I have some samples of those just to try lol

Good new stuff!
I'm always keeping an eye on this to make sure I don't miss the moment when you have enough new stuff to justify another order.

That hatch and hinge rock Zinge  If you haven't shipped my order yet, I would like to amend it with a few of those. PM me.

Post by: lone dirty dog
Nice job on the hatch and the hinge seems to be a winner, like the uzi turned out nice but it needs a silencer on the end

Next up another hatch - this will replace the other similar hatch which I was never that happy with and was hard to cast.

You put an Ork hand on those revolvers, and I'll order several dozen in a heartbeat.

Post by: Baiyuan
That one is even cooler than the other one, very close to the standard bulkheads on ships, less scifi is a good thing in this case. We're almost there, next order will be soon.

Post by: lone dirty dog
Next order ! this one just keeps growing I hope the misses don't want a holiday this year
Dont want to be pushy but how long till this lot hits the store just so I can start saving ha ha ha lol saving I mean borrow from the bank ……… after all we own it .

Lovely stuff! Looks like my Spores of Anarchy will be getting some additional fire power.
A nice Orky glock for my VP will be nice. Any more Ork scale pistols to come?
10028
Post by: zinge
Just sorting out the scales now and it seems that they are Warboss sized. A bit bigger than I hoped but no problem I was going to ask this any way: What sizes do you want which gun in or should I just go the whole hog and make all 5 in boy, Nob and boss sizes? @Dog don't ask difficult questions! - best guess within the month? Cheers Kit

Post by: Fox Box
Generally I work at Boy/Nob scale but I suppose it depends how much hassle it is to scale things. Are you 3D printing them?

i wondered too how he might be able to ask for a size preferrence...

He uses Zinge Magick, It's not for Muggles like us to understand......

Post by: matphat
I'm guessing that at the prodigious rate he turns out the proofs, that it's a very nice additive 3D printing process. Though I wouldnt imagine that he's printing them in bulk...
Resin casts maybe?
24297
Post by: Viktor von Domm
the casts are indeed resin... i have the proof on my dask as we speak^^
but i always assumed that the 3D printing was very expensive... i dunno if this hobby stuff could justify the developent costs then...guess zinge wont spill the beans on his desginmaking tho^^

Post by: matphat
I'm basing my guess off the fact that he posted shots of his "in development" 3D rendering software. Why even use that process, if you aren't using some type of 3D printing?
