I've actually got the masters made up for some Shako's, though I hav'nt yet got plans to put them in a production mould, but with a few more head designs on the cards hopefully they will be before the summer if that is of interest to you.

Sounds good. I will definitely keep an eye out. Just curious, are you meaning more in line with the arch typical Shako or something similar to the Prussian version? I was considering trying to figure out how to try to work it using some of the pickelhaube heads I got from you, but I will probably just wait to see.

French versions better!

That could certainly work Orlando, ultimately though, its down to you guys to interpret exactly how it might be powered. I've got my intention (single shot cell), but you could consider it anyway you want really, perhaps Lone Cat that single cell is more of a Duracell than a Super Market own brand and instead of lasting for just that one shot will do a dozen?

Goldshield, my intention was, and the master I've done was for, a Belgic Shako, I've increasingly got it in mind to do a single mould with 5 heads of various different types, though probably only a single facial expression for each. Something fairly generic. I'll then expand on those with new facial expressions as and when time allows, and assuming there is sufficient demand.

Roughly speaking, Belgic Shako, covered Picklehaube, Bearskin, Czapka, Adrian, but I could comfortably add a couple more. I'd be hoping to get these ready to follow on from the Firing line, so late April-May. I do have the beginnings of some other ranges, my own take on Greatcoats and also Desert troops, but its unlikely those will see the light of day until the summer at the earliest ,especially given I've got plenty to do with the exiting new weapons in terms of arms etc.

^ I wish these Adrian heads will be on the shelves before the summer campaign begins. these men must join Kaiserslauthern campaign.
and same as before. shaved face please

Well I'll certainly do my best Lone Cat!

Another preview, the last of Jake's pistols, these two fit in closely with the Laserlock Rifles, with the Laserlock Pistol on the right, and perhaps my favourite of all the pistols, the Plasmalock on the left.

Fantastic!!!!!!

Ohhhh myyyy /Takei

Before I get too excited, are these closer in scale to a plastic Cadian-sized laspistol, or a FW resin Death Korps-sized laspistol? I've been working hard to bring all my models closer to the FW "a-wee-bit-heroic-but-not-too-much" scale, and those pistols could be perfect for a couple of Inq28 characters I'm doing at the moment.

one more. these pistols appears to be double action ones. the laser pistol should be repeater. while plasma pistol can be single shot ones

Will there be C98 Boltpistol for Officiers and NCOs?

Lone Cat, arms are on the cards and indeed on the bench, I'd expect them in the second quarter of this year. Further pistols are planned, but no time scale yet set.

I'd imagine the Laserlock Pistol might equally suit a single shot or repeater mode, certainly the Plasmalock would be single though IMHO.

Yodrim, I'm afraid they more closely follow GW rather then FW scaling, the Repeater Pistol (top left) and Stub Pistol (bottom middle) in the earlier set of 5 pistols would probably be quite pleasing in respect to comparison with FW weapons though.

A new preview, Joseph Selman's Renegade sculpts were shown in the green stage previously, but now they're in metal and at the casters now.

Will there be loyalist versions with 'more disciplined' appearances than these 'cowboys'?

Say, will there also be "advancing" and "bayonet charge" arm options?

At long last, its release time!

And its a pretty long list, all of the following items are now in store!

Renegade Torso Set
Renegade Head Set
Corrupted Psyker
Pistol Selection Pack
Hand Cannon Set
Hand Cannon w/ Drum Mag Set
Hand Gun Set
Heavy Revolver Set
Rotary Hand Gun Set

Lost of pictures follow in the spoiler!

Does the rifle arms ready? which versions will be available first?
1. epaulette version
2. shoulderpad version
3. plain shirt version

Not yet, the next new releases Im working on are a selection of new heads and the Firing Line set - further arms are in the pipeline but further behind.

Hmm. Hello Primaris Psyker.

I have no idea which ones to order!

Will make up my mind tonight!

'new heads' is it includes Adrian helmet head? which symbol will you apply it on the crest?

By the way col. Is it possible to order just some legs for regular infantry men? The model bitz of your artillery crew would do... About ten per unit...this is something your current range in the shop is still missing...

Thanks , vik

I'd second this, and being able to purchase your iron horse biker torso as a separate component would be pretty nifty too!

Aww pish, I went to order and the new Chainsabres are out of stock. Any idea when you'll have more available?

Snrub, the devil on my shoulder says your right!

Lone Cat, yes, no further details yet though, but open to input!

My intention is to produce some standalone legs for infantry in the future, starting with the Firing Line kit, the Artillery Crew ones would work, but they're not really posed for that - though that said if you want them, I'll certainly see about sorting out a mould to include both the Artillery Legs, the Biker Torso and the return of the Tank Commander who ought to slot in there nicely as well. I'll be a bit busy this week, but will see what I can sort out over the bank holiday weekend!

Yodrin, I've already got a reorder of them being processed, I've asked and am pretty hopeful that they'll be in before the end of this week!

UPDATE, Yodrin, in fact I've just had shipping confirmation, so they stock will be added to the store on Wednesday if not before.

Standalone legs? does it includes this strange form of boot?



Wait! it seems that you PLAN to make Imperial MATILDA? Vic is working on this first!


^ Tell me about this please

Unlikely Lone Cat, though not impossible I'd do something like that in the future.

Hah the Matilda, this tank and the one which Vic is now working towards bringing out are one and the same.

The vehicle is a project of Jake Schenider, aka Faolan, which pre-dates his working with either myself or Vic as a freelance designer. Originally it was offered to me alongside a number of other vehicles and I had hoped to produce it, likely with the aid of a Kickstarter. Unfortunately, the reality is its just 'a little' beyond my resources to bring it to market, even with the financing of a KS, the time constraints I face would be too much of a stumbling block, something which the Artillery Kickstarter demonstrated to me. As much as I would have loved too to do it.

However, Vic very much has the resources and the customer base to make it viable, so I'm as eagerly awaiting this kit going into production as anyone!

It we are cruising down wish lane, I would love to have a modular version of the cadian standing at attention legs...that would fulfill some of my wildest conversion dreams

Huzzah! I'll pop in an order then.

Viktor, you mean a set of At Ease / At Attention posted legs? Hmmm...!

Yodrin, parcel has been delivered, I'll process it tonight, I dont like to upload anything until I've checked to make sure its all in order!

a standalone leg design option


look at his legs, near the shoe there's some kind of ribbon 'bandage' thing runs over his lower legs. and these piece of clothing shown up in the late Victorian era. (presumably by the time of Boer wars). what can you say about this leg option? this piece of attire shown up until the end of WW2 (or a lilbit beyond), featured prominently by Brits, French, Japanese, and Siamese troops. but the G.I. Joe didn't wear these.

aye col.!

that is exactly what I've been waiting for... I am mostly in the hobby due to my dioramas and At Ease / At Attention posted legs would be what could make me work on some ideas I had for quite a long time...
