Nice stuff. I personally greatly enjoy markers, and yours look well-made. I especially like the wooden ones, classy! Good prices, too.

By chance, do you make any industrial corridors or space towers?

God, not this again... that horse is more dead than the Monty Python parrot!

OK, OK, my apologies. Posting that last bit was perhaps not my best impulse. Let's move on, amicably.

looks like a nice start

Well, the obvious answer to that is, 40K specific markers done with the same quality of the Wild West markers you have available.
Wrecked, running, fired, Etc...
Perhaps with a sci-fi themed token border like a big brushed steel gear, or something of that nature.

Those MTG cards seem to be walking a dangerous line of copyright infringement. Not sure if they'd be considered derivative works. Anyway... Best of luck.

They're Altered Cards. This is no different than selling painted GW miniatures.

Given that he's not actually copying anything, that seems unlikely. According to the site, you send him a card, he adds his own artwork, then sends it back.

If that's copyright infringement, so is writing in the margins of a book.

I think GW wants us to think that writing anything in, near, about, or while thinking about their books is copyright infringement.

But no, altered card art is a very popular thing in these days. I've paid good money for some.

Right on all accounts except one.

He is actually a She.

And yeah, you can check it out on ebay, altered cards are for sale all the time. I'm not copying anything or claiming the original art is mine, I just extend it to the margins. Totally legal.

I don't actually play 40K, so I don't know the full list of token/markers that are needed to play the game, however, if someone wanted to PM me with them, they might get the test set for free.

My mistake. I assumed the guy wearing those shirts on your website was you.

There are a few different types that might be of interest, although I can't really judge how much demand there'd be for each.

Troops & heroes might use wound counters and markers for when they're taking cover ("going to ground") or fleeing, vehicles can be damaged in a number of ways ("shaken"/can't shoot, "stunned"/can't move, immobilised, weapon destroyed and counters for the loss of structure points on a Superheavy tank), and a number of armies have their own gameplay mechanics, like Grey Knight psionic powers, Dark Eldar Pain tokens and Sisters of Battle Faith points and Acts of Faith.

Yeah I've been looking for some and I can't seem to find them anywhere.

I'm being trolololoed.

It's a worn out, unfunny in-joke, stemming from some manufacturer that once made such a product. Ignore them, if you can.

It may be worn out, but my good sir it is not unfunny.

It is, however, inappropriate for this thread...

Really digging the Victorian Horror marker set, may have to pick up one or three of those...

Thanks to the handful of folks who let me know about the 40k tokens!

One quick general question, are any of them supposed to be certain shapes or sizes, or are any of them not supposed to be bigger than a certain shape or size?

-Ravyn

No bigger than a quarter no smaller than a nickel should be about right.

These tokens are nice. The wood material fits the steampunk background well.

It would be helpful for non-US members of sizes could be described in terms of actual measurements rather than coinage.

If I said a playing piece was halfway between an 50 yen and a 100 yen coin in size, it probably wouldn't help many members?

Was somebody asking about Litk...... oh wait nevermind.

Nice tokens btw. I'd love to see some "Sci-Fi" type tokens, and perhaps some "Pie Platter" type measuring apperture.

Some tokens I would love to see, and if I ever have money again would have custom ordered if no one made them, would be some leader tokens. Something simple like a set of sergeant's stripes.
