So the insectoid swarm is just a biological version of the Cyber arthropod / arachnid force? Same models, different skins?



Since you ask, my preference would be to see completely new model designs.

Yes, Insectoid Swarm is designed as biological version of Cyber Invaders.

I'm the same.

Insectoid Swarm faction is not a totally new idea. In fact, one of our oldest model belongs to this range. Just take a look at this beast - Insectoid Living Incubator.

I hope you've got a cyber version of that beasty coming.. oooooh..

I would love some shoulder guards with flames and bones sculpted on them. Maybe some flaming skull helmets?

Let me remind (again) that we are running first round of our first monthly painting competition. You may win 66 EUR voucher for buying products from our store by simply taking photo or photos of our painted miniatures and models.

I will remind rules:
- Take photo of photos of some Puppets War models painted by you.
- Send them using this e-mail address - communitypuppetswar@gmail.removeit.com
- Wait for the end of montly competition...
... when we will announce a winner.

This first contest will run till the end of May (so there is still a lot of time to paint something) and a winner will be announced in the first week of June. Selected photos may be used by our company (we would like to show them on our website, here and on some selected forums).
One more thing - please take photos of only our models or scratch-built ones from our bits.
Just take a look what you can achieve. This stunning Insectoid Living Incubator was painted by Arnaud Codeville. You can see more photos of his excellent miniature here:

A little preview of things to come. Don't fly too near of our soon to be released AA toys...

Cool! Will there be a way to mount that to the Orc War Bus?

Holy crap!

Pretty cool might find a space to fit it to my list

Cool! Will there be a way to mount that to the Orc War Bus?

Yes, it will fit...

Orc Fly Destructor Turret is a correct name for our latest, today's release. Well, personally, I much prefer names like BOOMBOOMBOOMBOOMBOOM or SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT. Anyway, my personal preferences doesn't matter here, so let's stay with Destructor Turret.

You can find this NEW release in our webstore here:
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=420
Price of this four-barrelled monster is 16 EUR (remember - delivery worldwide is flat rate 4.99 EUR only).

This model consists of Orc Destructor Turret, four orc AT cannons and one orc turret base. As with most of our releases, this kit is made with holes for 3x1mm magnets, which allows for very easy repositioning. Turret is addidionally compatible with all kinds of vehicle weapons available in our webstore and some creative modellers may even mount it on the orc warbus model, as the turret base will fit there.

Those brave enough to stand in its arc of fire (and lucky to score many saving throws) may blame Kamil Kopczyński, who is responsible for sculpting this shell spitting beast
More seriously, we think that Kamil made a great job here. What's your opinion?

In the entry above we mentioned one of our earlier models, which seems to be a perfect mount for our yesterday's release, Orc Fly Destructor Turret (http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=420)

Ladies and Gentlemen, let me introduce effect of genius orc tek-knowledge - Warbus.

Our company, Puppets War, is frequently seen as a maker of fine fantasy/science fiction themed models. While it is true, it is not whole true. We do some models which are historically accurate or are very close to their historical counterparts. Just take a look at three selected examples of our sets of heads in 28mm 'heroic' scale.

Resin Berets Heads (perfect for British paras, American Green Berets, etc)
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=306

Samurai Heads (with the exception of one design, historically accurate for... yep, samurais wearing kabutos with mempos)
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=141

Anzac Guardsmen heads (if you are looking for diggers' heads, look no more - five heads and additional hat for soldiers from Australia)

Fine(ish) for Australian hats, but the New Zealand slouch hat doesn't look like that... it has a crown like an orange juicer.

Correct My bad

Cover. Every good tabletop battlefield needs a lot of cover. Take a look at our upcoming new release, which will hit the store really soon. Ruined parts of gothic buildings will make a great addition to any battlefield. Play hide and seek with your opponent (but don't forget to bring bigger guns - preferably MUCH bigger, just to be on the safe side).

Man, you guys have been churning stuff out lately.

One thing I've been curious about is how well do your trooper heads scale with Infinity? I'd like to do headswaps, but pretty much nobody makes heads in scale with Infinity.

Our heads will be too big too - Infinity miniatures are sculpted in a different easthetic, you will probably have to look for some 20 mm scale miniatures to do some swaps (not too many fantasy/sci fi miniatures in this scale unfortunately).

Darn. I'd hoped that yours would be the right size. Back to searching, I guess.

Hell, I am surprised these fine Polish peeps even know about slouch hats, even if they are not up to the fine detail differences between the Australian and NZ versions.

We here, in Poland, do know about many different things. Not the smallest of them is the knowledge of brave armies and units. We were brothers in arms too, our Carpathian Brigade fought side-by-side of Australian infantry in Tobruk. And we tend to not forget such things.

Anyway - please take a look at our today's release - Church Ruins.

Are You ready for some firefight in the ruins of some old church? We certainly hope so! To make things easier, we offer just a right kind of terrain On a more serious note, our today's release is definitely useable on almost every table - historical, science-fiction or even fantasy themed.

http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=421

Set "Church Ruins" contains six resins ruins, designed for 28mm scale games (max length of piece is 150mm). Yours for 17 EUR. (Remember, we ship worldwide for just 4.99 EUR)

I was going to buy a jetbike to have a crack at the painting comp, but there doesn't appear to be an option to check out without creating an account, and the store won't accept my email address (says it is invalid .... It's not.)

Check this mysterious link...

Ok, Ok... It is not THAT mysterious. Anyway, we'd like to inform that You can follow us on Pinterest now too.

You wouldn't have a photo of your katanas compared with other swords? I want to get some for my Warzone Resurrection Mishima and Brotherhood but don't know if they'll be too big compared to the tiny WZ's ones.

No, we don't have such pictures and we don't make such pictures. You can see relative length of the katanas on this picture (there are 3x1mm holes visible too).

Sunday... It is evening here in Poland. I can bet that quite a few of us are having.... let's call it a bad day... Really, really bad. Cats are making noise walking on the carpets, fishes are so loud in the fish tanks... But it seems that this is not only mankind's problem... Take a look at those poor dwarves...
One of our earlier sets, Dwarf Hangover (five dwarves, 28mm heroic scale)

http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=82

Those bushi strikers look nice and the crapping dwarf hilarious!

Who'll be the first to field a whole army of buttock-baring dwarves? Ok, a whole army might be overdoing it, but these would be great front-of unit figures. Counts-as musicians, perhaps?

Anyone know if we can order and pay via whichever squiggly value we want no matter where we live? I just wonder because the US $ is strong right now so the costs are way off. For example the dwarves just listed are $39.48, but if I pay via euro and my paypal does the conversion I'm only out $31.xx. I've been eyeing the bushi strikers, but between the old dilemma of casts, communications and price I haven't bothered. Now that you guys are back on here I'm willing to give it a go...if I can order it in euros or pounds sterling.
