If you ever intended to expand the line of Gels and Dwarves they might make a good base for a kickstarter along the lines of the Gnomish Adventurers Boxed Set. I know I for one would like to be able to run a force of just Gels or Dwarves with plenty of variaty.

Hey Cy, I think we got an idea for a boxed EFT game

Throw in some preprinted tiles and it basically is...

I was there... how did I miss the painted gels?

I can fix this, although it seems I didn't get a picture of just them...

They only showed up on Saturday (we had to paint them

), so it might be a reason.

I have some picks of only the painted Gels, but the I got some problems with the light and my camera, so they are a bit dark.

Gel Wizard I painted

Gel Warrior painted by my friend Paul

**Cyporiean**

Those Gels came out fantastically Tonio, I'll be getting some proper 'official' pics of them this weekend. We really appreciate you and Paul taking the time to paint them up.

We've *just* made it back from Templecon, and I've got a ton of e-mails to go through... and then I'll be looking over the pledge manager and dealing with that.

**msears**

Way into the gels! Was excited to see my KS survey come through, you guys are really kicking some ass these days.

**RiTides**

Nice pics of the gels, and I have to say, they look soooo much better painted! I actually really like them a lot now, which is a complete turnaround from what I felt before! Although your paint job is probably doing a lot for them (like a great paint job does for SDE models, such as Gymnogyps' set).

**Tonio**

They were a blast to paint! Like you, I was a bit unsure about them, but painting changed my mind. I'm eyeing the King Gel now, and rethinking my Chests' choices...

**RiTides**

Tonio, you weren't at TempleCon, were you? (i.e. you had them mailed or sent them there with someone else?)

I hope you decide to unlurk and post more of your work in this section

**Tonio**

I was indeed at Templecon. Tall French Canadian. I watched a big part of the Brushfire mega battle, a bunch of Trollbloods in my hands, if that might helps you put a face on the name.

We picked up the models Friday evening, and painted them in our room until far too early in the morning. Those two Gels were the only models we had though, so further work will need to wait until I get my stuff like every other backers. I wouldn't be against other preview models to paint

, but that's a stretch.

**RiTides**

Oh, then I believe we must have spoken! I was playing the hamster / catapult army with a few shrew hussars and Valkyrs. Very cool to have met you

I also play trollbloods

. And I can't believe you painted those gels in a day (or night rather). Wow!

If I was going to have Bob fix this sculpt from the core pieces, the only useable parts are part of the Legs and a portion of the torso. The adjustments needed to it would involve re-sculpting parts of the head, both arms, the skirt armor, the thighs, and the lance and at that point Bob is basically re-sculpting the model. We are not abandoning the sculpt, we are actively working towards getting Vinni to fix it (which since its a digital sculpt would be incredibly easy to fix with the mesh), but there is not much I can do other then continuing to try and reach him via e-mail.

I have hope that we will eventually be able to get the model fixed, but I have no idea when that will be. A key sign of us not abandoning this sculpt is the fact that we have Bob sculpting a different Dragoon; we could have easily had him sculpt a Dragoon based off of Noah's artwork, but since we're confident that the issue will be resolved eventually we won't have two of the same exact style/pose.

Hey boss, if you don't mind my asking, what's the file format the Dragoon mesh is saved in? Depending on that and the sculpt's issues, I could at very least look into it.

**Cyporiean**

Ekoi, we don't have the file. :/

6 Valkyrs is only a few!?! I just got into Brushfire at Templecon, and your army was a tad intimidating to see.

RiTides doesn't believe Brushfire is a Skirmish game

-Ah, I see; that would explain some things. It seems a bit odd that the artist would have only sent a print for the job, seeing is it's your guys' intellectual property. O_o

Looks like I know what the alternate palette for the Gels is going to be.~

I'm not intimidated by his army, I run Badgers... Ambushing Badgers... oh hello Monsieur Valkyr, meet my clawed badgers

Also I've never met RiTides in real life, so I have nothing to fear

**Wehrkind**

RiTides is one of the few people who I think worries more about "not having enough" than I do. I suspect that at one point in his childhood his dreams were stymied for want of 3-4 more 1x6 Lego bricks or something.

I know mine were :(

My dreams were crushed when I wanted the big lego sets and got the big bucket of duplo blocks and lego blocks... I didn't mind them, but I wanted the fething sets... Can't be having a red, green, black, yellow, blue, etc... castle... This isn't the 1960s...

You should ask Matt how well ambushing models worked out for him on Saturday nights Megabattle...

**Alfndrate**

I saw the little write up you did, it didn't work out because you had a mole tactician on the board at the same time... I think I could sneak by some hamsters and a few rats that aren't being supported by the nation of Aquitar

The only thing worst then a Mole Tactician is the Agamid Vizier with the "I roll an extra d10 for KE rolls" boon.

**Alfndrate**

That's cause Scyzantium is run by slimy reptiles

Ritides will always have the support of the good portion of Aquitar in his fight against the inept and corrupt Alfndrate!

Alfindrate is a part of another OTL game, not Brushfire

Though Remember, my main faction is Aquitar... until I get some Lem Han in my hands...

**Wehrkind**

I know I can't wait for you to get some warcock in your hands...

In my defense, I meant "a few" because 3 of my Valkyrs were on Catyr's side of the board

But Wehrkind is right, I'm a bit of a hoarder and like to have enough to run "any list". It's a curse

Next one will be Nevsky with 15 hamster bodyguard, 15 more hamsters to trebuchet across the field, 3 trebuchets with crew, and 4 kiwi bodyguards for the hedgeknight
