Yes, I was indeed planning an update on december 25th! You guys know me too well.

Happy Holidays! Christmas Day Update!

Dearest backers, I come with a pair of upgrades and a gift!
( in a super duper rush, did not spell check this one, anna is asleep and I beg you for forgiveness! )

I am happy to be spending another holiday season with you all! It has been a truly special year and I gotta admit its actually really hard to stop working for a few days. Until the new years I will be dialing my time down to just 2 hours of work a day, so i can keep ontop of key communication with the plastic production team and a few of the freelancers that aren't taking time off.


Upgrades

The forsakers mask, a piece of gear you can earn from defeating the butcher is also now represented in miniature form. It was just too cool to pass up! The original skull helm has had another art pass. The original was interesting but the new one feels much better. In addition they will also be represented in miniature form for all those budding bone warriors out there!





Gift
This is my gift to everyone for being awesome. I spent some time with our digital sculptor working on some more elaborate hair styles. These were initially a creative exploration, but they turned out so well we have decided to share them! These extra heads will be included in every core game box.



I am rolling all the other updates I have at this point into a larger update which should be around... the second week in January. ( maybe end of first week?) I am expecting a lot of plastics so it would be nice to have a little time to assemble everything, take photos and then just share it all at once.

I just wanted to say again, thank you so very much for being part of this kickstarter and part of my life for the last year. We are so much closer now to bringing this truly titanic project into reality and all of this simply would not be possible without you. Although there was a certain comfort in taking it slow, this push is worth it and I just can't wait until we are all playing KD:M together!

!!!!!!!!

Yeah, well - I didn't initially pledge because:

1) My only prior experience with KD miniatures had been the genitalia/vomiting/mammary-focused stuff

2) I thought the pinups were the primary focus of the game (when they were actually just a primary focus of the latter part of the Kickstarter).

3) It looked like I had to spend an additional $200 or so to get a "complete" version of the game with decent enemy variety.

4) I had my doubts about a one-man operation delivering on that number of models to that many customers.

I later did pledge on the recent Black Friday Survivor-level (despite a further premium for doing so) because everything I've been hearing about this project has been positive, and I've seen nothing but love and care in the recent project updates.

But I'm still a bit worried, honestly. There's still so many things that can go wrong, especially when China's involved!

Keep in mind that each individual monster isn't like a random encounter that you'd find in your average RPG. Each one is a mind-flaying, soul-raping, nightmare-fueling hellbeast that exists for the purpose of destroying you and everyone you love.

So more like Dark Souls, then.

Anyway, is this even going to have a retail release? I remember there being some uncertainty with that before.

Whats CMoN?

Hello everyone!
New article in Kingdom Death serie. Today here's a very detailed miniature; the Storm Knight!
This impressive boss have been very fun to do, and his style his close to the famous Flower Knight!
It is 65 mm tall and have been made with Fimo and Magic sculpt putty, as usual.
Stay tuned!

@Everyone. Yes we are behind the original estimated delivery date. And you are all backers, not customers. Starting fulfillment in march is not likely, as all of February the factories in china will be shut down for Chinese new year. It also takes on the average 6 weeks for a shipment to travel across the sea and clear customs.
