Hopefully if Tre' is able to ship his EU pledges via Arty, he considers doing AU/NZ... maybe most of RoW the same way. Royal Mail is a gakload more reasonably priced than USPS.(Not sure about Canada or Mexico/Central/South America)
And thanks everybody else as well. I am going to be working up soem concept sketches tonight to put up in place of boring old text. That way even if I am unable to complete the sculpts at least there will be some idea of what the final pieces will turn otu like.

Glad to see this turning around again so fast. Backed!
Is there a list somewhere of the exact contents of the Warband pledge? I'm assuming it's the modular warriors plus the various solos, basically everything on offer?
Will individual models be available via HF post campaign? I normally don't like Tre's 'wide stance' sculpts (sorry Tre - the sculpting is great, but the stance turns me off), but that Mage bloke is lovely and likely to be my first RBG figure.
yep they will be available through HF post campaign.
Automatically Appended Next Post: Ok I DID work today...unfortunately I did not finish the apprentice or he theif or the hero. I did however finish an alternate wizard which I may put into the core ste replacing the apprentice with Ejryvindr who is destined for a name change.
Pics tomorrow!

Update #1 (First post edited with relvant details)
Spoiler:
FUNDED!!! On to StretchGoal Number one; Master Wizard Frodulf Summoner of Beasts and Spirits
Awesome! We made our funding goal! Many many thanks to everyone for backing once again and helping me to expand my Njorn Range with new Modular troops and characters.
So now on to the Stretch Goals for this campaign. The first Stretch Goal shall be unlocking the master Wizard Frodulf. Older and more learned than Ejryvindr, Frodulf command a spell regimen vast and old, summoner of Beast and Spirit and elemental forces alike Frodulf is a powerful wizard indeed and an inspiring leader as well. Upon reaching $9000.00 Frodulf will be unlocked as an $8 Solo Add-on option. Frodulf is NOT available as part of the Warband Set.
There are still a few details needing fixed. I am not sure about the head. I think it may be a bit too big. Which seems like a difficult fix but it isn;t really. He will have two hand options when finished, a sword or a horn, and his staff will be getting a few bone trinkets and rune stones.
I also have pictures of the Apprentice and Thief WIPs. The Apprentice is a young woman and the Theif is a young boy. Both names are still WIP but the designs are established. I will be showing more finished WIP shots later in the day as progress is made.
Thanks again everybody for pledging once again! and as ALWAYS all feedback is welcome!
Cheers!
Tre'

What ever happened with the female magic user Tre was talking about offering in resin in the PVC campaign? I want to see that. I probably want to buy it too.
