I imagine there are some of you who pledged for Endless Fantasy because of the gels. If so, you might be tempted by these, and could even use them along with the OTL gels as alternate poses / etc:





They're from a french sculptor who is running an IndieGoGo campaign. Just FYI I thought they were adorable. Apparently I'm just a sucker for gels, as I love the look of the OTL ones, too.

Those are really nice!

It's a shame I refuse to use indie gogo.

Good find! Gels are so cool. That make for another cool crowdfunding project to check. Hum...


Speaking of French sculptor, there is a cool gel model in the Color Warz's line, by Fluo game.



And there is also the Fire Gels from the SDE expansion Cavern of Roxor.

Nice, Tonio! Apparently the gels were very popular at AdeptiCon so maybe we'll see more sculpts from OTL one day, too

I want to do a Gel Ranger, just to make Heath try to design one using a bow.

He should just do one with the forearm of the archer stick out of it's face, like it ate her.

All these other gels are cool but they are missing the funny hats. Endless gels have a bit more personality, trying to mimic people.

I would love to see a gel pugilist that was trying to roundhouse kick the enemy with its psuedopod.

In my dream world I would pick up a bunch of gel warriors and convert their helmets and weapons over to the various classes. Dark knight gel anyone? Dragoon gel perhaps?


Or how about a feral gel cult that wants to stay "natural" and not imprint to anything. Those could be your more traditional blob gels.

That's pretty great, Galen!

With the popularity of the Gels, we definitely want to do more variants. We've yet to decide if we just do variants as Gel Warriors/Wizards or release new Gels.

Maybe do a base set of models with different decorative kits? Like a gel Mr. Potato Head?

That's a pretty good idea . "Hat upgrade pack"... the possibilities!

That is an interesting question. I can see how it could go either way. Regardless of the format choice it seems like the skirmisher/ranger type gel (as suggested earlier) would be an obvious next step. It could either be unique or a variant warrior focusing on movement and attack.

How about some of these command for a new Gel warrior:

Low density: (passive) gel receives -1 DEF, +1MOV, +1JMP, (maybe +1 MAG)

or

Momentum: (passive) If Gel moved its full MOV this turn it receives +1 ATT on basic attacks

or even just the Fluid command from the gel Wizard.
Some sort of follow through or move and attack action command would also seem appropriate.

There needs to be some sort of cube shaped gel added at some point...

Maybe a Gel 'Rogue' that is wearing a cardboard box.

A ranger gel would be awesome. After reading the fluff for the gels i cam up with a scenario set in a slime pool, as models are killed off they are replaced by a gel. Adepts and Sorcerers would be replaced by wizard gels, Squires and Knights would be replaced by warrior gels and Bandits archers and theives could be replaced by ranger gels.
