It feels kinda odd to halt the sale mid week, so I've extended it until sunday (the 20th)





Spartan heads: not a bad idea but also something I want to take on right now, I need to work on terrain and robots.

Alien tenticles: I don't have any solid ideas for a new design yet, I had a few but none of them that I've been particuarly happy with and alien parts aren't the seller they were 1-2 years ago.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I've had the models for these done for a while but there's some issues with molding them that will require them to be remastered. Before I go through that expense I thought I'd get a feel for people's interest level.

Currently the pieces are sized at 30x30mm and are 2mm thick. Is that a preferred size or would a 25x25mm base better, or 40x40mm? (increasing to a 40mm size would also increase costs)

Would you prefer to buy them cast or would it be preferable to buy molds ala Hirst Arts style that lets you cast your own pieces?

Rough cost for resin would likely fall around $2.50 for a 1x3 tile (30mmx90mm) Molds would likely be around $25-$30 and make 3 seperate pieces per pour 1x3,1x2, 1x1.



These pics are not final versions.

You said you were going to put the original tentacles back into production a year ago and I took you at your word. If I had known that this was not going to happen I would have molded the ones I had before using them in builds.

Sorry but not everything is in my control in regards to cancelling the tendril sculpts. I have some external restrictions being imposed on that particular sculpt that I'm not sure how to work around and still produce a quality part. I'd prefer not to put out a poorly done hackjob just to get something out there.

Speaking to the floor tiles:

If you're going to make a $25-$30 mold, this is what I would envision:

I only want one of the patterns in the mold. Lets say the diamond plate one. I want a 40mm 1x1, 1x2, 1x3, 2x2 and 2x3. As this won't exhaust the space on the mold, I also would like the 25mm or 30mm 1x1, 1x2, 1x3, 2x2 and 2x3. This would let me make some space corridors with the 40mm tiles, and also use them on bases to base my 25mm and 40mm guys on. Problem solved. If I want more than one pattern, then I buy another mold with that pattern. Now, if you could put some 1x1 and 2x2 40mm doors on there to go with it, you'd be in business!

The pieces look great by the way. I'd love a mold to make my own!

I would say the mould idea is a good one maybe a couple of options might be a good idea, like suggested above but also a mould of mixed designs.

You might find a demand for ready made as well though, I would try a poll and see what the feedback is to get more of a better idea.

I still think the street furniture was the road to take, they look great and i was thinking or hoping that you will expand the range.

So I'm guessing that GW does not like part of the sculpt, so it needs to be modified? Why didn't you tell us this a year ago, instead of just saying they they would be back in production in January 2012?

Please PM me the specifics and lets see what can be done.

awesome!

Is the shield large enough that a particular round decal can fit in the circular recess in the middle?

I'm not sure which one I like better. Both the swept back cowl and the straight cowel both look great. Sorry I couldn't be of much help. Maybe pick which one you think matches better with the other stuff you have in the same line?

So they both look great, sorry that's not helpful!

Just produce both sell twice as many

Have to say got my order the other day and the street furniture is brilliant, makes great scene props and adds that extra details to display bases.

The casts are clean and crisp with just a little mould line which is easily cleaned up, but the detail is great I really do love these models.

I also thought it was great that you issued stickers for the bins and the com, now if you could do a damaged version of these dented broken fronts ect that would be great.

On a more serious note, the energy shield and flamethrower should be available by end of the month.

Actually the whole site seems to be down.

8000 points of XI Legion the Space Vagabonds, they can adapt their tactics to represent any and every Legion and Chapter as needed because they were created by the Emperor to be the ultimate tactical power. They have faked their disappearance in order to infiltrate every part of the conflicts in the galaxy.

8000 points of Tau/Craftworld Eldar/Necron because the Space Vagabonds can also emulate their wargear and tactics.

Victories: ALL
Losses: NONE (My armies have the psychic ability to conjure a cataclysmic storm whenever they are about to lose. This allows the Space Vagabonds to teleport away while releasing power waves that destroys the battlefield and so every battle is a victory)

Odd, what browser are you guys running? I'm able to access the site and pics fine (on two differant computers) but somebody else had complaints yesterday about not being able to access the site. Are you getting any specific error codes?
