Any plans on making Orc Jump Packs (maybe a few different designs) in the near future? I know I would buy them.
we are thinking about those and how we want them to look like
Please make some big jump pack orcs. I can get nice looking small ones in plastic, but big ones are really hard to find and I want some seriously beefy leaders for my units.
Ideally, I'd also like a bit of a Fallschirmjäger look to them and separate heads and arms so I can mix in various parts, but the important thing for me is that they are big.
My goblin tanks (and a few other models) just arrived! Nicely timed, as they were a birthday present to myself and it's tomorrow.
Not really looked at everything yet, but first impressions are very good. Detail is nice and crisp, no mold lines visible, everything seems well-planned to fit together easily, loads of options and cool parts...
Mine arrived today and have to say impressed, you really crammed the detail in to these little guys.
Not sure which one I like the most as its a close call, also they even detailed the under sides of the tanks.
Add to that the crew are are top notch each one has its own charm, also a great choice of weapon load outs so no issue there.
Also bought the Ork standard another great addition that is one bad ass model, you really lifted your game with these releases hope to see more like this in the near future.
Ok working on the grot tanks washing the resin and starting to remove parts from the sprue, noticed a couple of breakages with the broken bits missing from the bags so contacted you guys about sorting that out for me.
Also just found out I am missing the hatch sprue for grot scrap tank 2 ( grot with flags), damn the first one and missing the bits complete it
Have to say how much more I have noticed as to the detail while cleaning these up, whoever made these have crammed these full of it hope I can do it justice with brush work.
While doing this got me thinking will you guys be building a mega tank at all ? I soooooooo hope so love to see your take on that.
Also you guys really need to produce some grots in the style of the drivers, love to see some standalone grot characters maybe even some tank riders.
Incase you need the info I am missing this sprue and these bits were the broken missing bits.

Incidentally, does anyone know how much cleaning Kromlech resin needs? It feels really dry and clean, so I was wondering if I could get away without the usual scrubbing with detergent, ultrasonic cleaner, alcohol bath routine, or at least only have to do it once.
Since I did a mini review of the Tabletop Scenics Orc Barracks earlier in the thread I'll also show what I did with mine (built in 'mirror image' to the way the kit is designed due a 'built too late at night on too little sleep error). I've kept the watchtower that could be fitted to it loose for a separate project

@LDD; How's the dog mate?
It wasn't great news the tumour they removed was malignant so they have given the poor little guy 3 too 6 months due to it eventually spreading to other areas.
We could have had chemo but that would only prolong his life up to 6 months, which would have included constant trips and short stays too the vets ( which he hates ) along with sickness, diarrhoea and him feeling basically lethargic and generally bloody awful.
Also he would have to take some form of medication for his heart due to the side effects of the chemo, because of this we decided not to go that root and let him have best time he can for however long he has, we rather he is able to still do the things he likes doing.
So basically he gets more special treats, gets to play ball all the time and take the nice long walks he loves, along with a few hugs when he lets me .
Also great customer service, got a reply back all being sorted and sent out to me as soon as possible. Thanks for the great service guys.

Sorry to hear that :( I hope you will both find enough time to enjoy each other as long as possible.
This set contains 14 resin Industrial Lamps that can be used to decorate miniatures, bases or scenery. Designed to fit 28mm heroic scale.
I imagine those to be used for example with your buildings and inside of an APC vehicle. That warning yellow or red light inside !
Of course there are many more ways to use those but I will left this to your imagination
Sorry didn't want to hijack this thread but wanted to say a BIG thanks to all you guys for your support and regards , Dakka has some really great people here. Also don't worry he is having the best time, I don't think I have ever played so much catch in my life but he loves it so he gets to play.
Now those lamps look rather splendid got me thinking of some ork bike conversions
