Maybe they're just big fans of Iron Man.

Excited for the next KS, although I still haven't saved up enough to replace the money I pulled out of the last KS!
The Canadian dollar is weak as piss right now, which isn't helping.

Anyone have any sober second thoughts on the Nobles pledge level? I'm leaning more and more towards focusing my money on 2-3 factions, but it's still tempting, because insanity.

I'm not 100% sure I understand the question, but I've just been painting my first Darklands model, Eirik (who I picked up separately a while back) and TBH I've really enjoyed taking my time painting a boutique resin model (versus years of rushed 3-colour jobs for events) that the idea of receiving a good number of varied characters to enjoy taking my time over appeals even more than it did when I made the pledge.

But I also spent enough to get 1 infantry, 1 monstrous infantry and 2 monsters for 2 different factions and will possibly add a 3rd this time round, so I'm playing it both ways

Very very few animals do that, but I have noticed it seems standard on all your designs, even the Dragon.


Every dragon I've seen in the wild walks on their knuckles.


How droll...

Every other dragon miniature that puts weight on its front feet does so on the open palm.
Just like crocodiles, alligators, komodo dragons, lizards, turtles, etc, etc, etc.
The other main alternative is to use modified toes, like horse, elephants, deer, lions, tiger, cats, dogs, bears etc.
Only Gorillas, chimpanzees, Giant anteaters, and the platypus walk on their knuckles.


Alligators and crocodiles don't have opposable thumbs like the dragons do, nor do they sit/stand upright. Glaun and Angrislaug's physiology resembles apes, it makes sense they walk similarly. They are kind of a hybrid between biped and quadruped.

I will also offer, if you can't buy at KS1 prices, then the UK-USA shipping probably won't sting as much (she's £20 in KS1)

Ironically (last OT post from me ITT I promise) my sister got me back into following NFL for the first time, she started watching it with her husband (who's mad keen sports fan) as something to do together, as she pretty much hates all sport, but is a bit of a yankophile.

She chose to follow Denver, as they honeymooned in the Rockies, her fella follows the Steelers because his family name is Steel.

I have no such connections, so rather arbitrarily picked...

The Seahawks.

She's gone to bed.

Why would we shoot in the air? That's just a waste of bullets! And the rest of the world can hardly contest that soccer is doesn't make you crazy! I think it's just the word 'football' that turns humans into crazed fanatics.

Pretty lame Super Bowl unfortunately.

Update #51

Feb 7 2014
WIPs, Wave 0 and KS2.5...
Comment
3 likes

Today, Mierceday, we have yet more work in progress images of miniatures for you all, as well as news of project fulfilment and the next project.

Without further ado...
Uhtred Uhtredson

Patrick Masson has completed Uhtred, and we absolutely love him to bits. What a miniature!





Here's a scale shot too, of Uhtred next to Hedroc! As you can see, he's a big lad is our Uhtred!



We are already happy that Patrick's doing Gaarwäg of course, but we can announce that we've managed to secure his services for KS2.5, something that makes us even happier!

We should have Uhtred in our smelly mitts next week, although he won't be sent until the first wave goes out, of course. Remember, too, that Uhtred is ONLY available through this Kickstarter project (although we do reserve the right to sell him at shows and other events) and ONLY if you purchase the rulebook; he'll never be a full release. So get him while you can...
Ieuan Longshore and Taranau

Stéphane Cammosetto has been hard at work on John Longshore's descendant, and if we're honest with ourselves, we think he's just as good as Uhtred. Stéphane's sculpting skills are nothing short of fantastic!




Again, based on his work on Ieuan, we've now secured the talents of Stéphane for future Mierce projects as well as Eadric on foot and on horse (more on that later).

We just hope John Longshore is happy with the results!
Danilo Cruz, Beast Slayer of Cantabria

It's been all sell-swords so far, so why not another one? Juan Navarro Pérez has begun work on Danilo Cruz and even though it's early stuff, Danilo's going to be fantastic, as you can see...


It shouldn't be too long before Juan has finished Danilo, and then it's onto Urien for the Brythoniaid. We've had both Uhtred and Danilo sculpted early, of course, thanks to how popular they are; Uhtred was tied to the Darklands: First Edition rulebook (as was Finnan) and Danilo to the Sweet Spot reward, so it makes sense to get these done early. Finnan won't be far behind, either, although Benoît has the small matter of five Wælwulfas to sculpt first.
Crom of Carn Wrach, War-Drune

Stéphane Simon's is sculpting Crom at a cracking pace. It's only been a week since we saw the first WIPs! Mind you, he has got a lot to do for us...!



It shouldn't be too long before Crom's done, and then it's Leofwen on foot for him...
Darklands: First Edition Fulfilment

We are now shipping Wave 0 orders to backers from this project, but we would ask all of you to remain patient while we do so. We are only a small team and are still fulfilling the remaining orders for Darklands: a World of War, and we do expect to continue fulfilling Wave 0 orders throughout February and probably later. We will keep you all updated of course.
Sculpts and Sculptors

Here's the big list of who's sculpting what and when for Darklands: First Edition! Please bear in mind that this list may change over time, so don't take it as set in stone until the first work in progress shots appear; a good example of that is Maxime Penaud, who has decided not to work with us due to time constraints - which is completely understandable, as he does not sculpt for a living, he has a real job. The good news, however, is that Stéphane Cammosetto has agreed to take on Eadric on foot and on horse, and Christian Hardy will be sculpting Aldhelm!

Stéphane Cammosetto: the awesomely talented Stéphane is sculpting the first descendant - John Longshore's Brythoniaid bowman, Ieuan Longshore (not forgetting his mastiff, Taranau) - and has also agreed to sculpt Eadric on foot and on horse for us.
Allan Carrasco: Allan should begin work on Jörmungand in March. After that he will be sculpting Knútr on Foot, Knútr on Horse, Víthar, Birna, Rollo Iron Head and Cnebba.
Roberto Chaudon: he's finished the top secret project, details of which will be unveiled next week, and Roberto will then give Belech his guitar and afterwards begin work on this project. First up for him is Angedern, followed by Mag ap Mag, Mälmord, Ágriosávra, Eikovra, Myrkranio and finally Djiuzu.
Daniel Cockersell: the Daddy of all monster sculptors, Dan has begun work on Scecchus, but it will be a while before he is done.
Benoît Cosse: Benoît is still working on Darklands: a World of War miniatures and won't start Hrór, Finnan, Praach and the Baagath's Herd for a good long while yet.
Thomas David: work on Timoth has begun, but we only have an armature so there's not a great deal to see.
Pedro Fernández Ramos: Mananaan on foot is finished of course, and he'll soon begin work on Mananaan on horse.
Yannick Fusier: the first images of Bagseg in progress have arrived but there's not a lot to see as yet; we should have something in the next couple of weeks.
Jacques-Alexandre Gillois: he should begin work on Daarkan, Naraa and both Equitus Durio on foot and Equitus Durio on horse soon. Although not necessarily in that order, and we're not sure when - we just know they'll be done before May.
Gauthier Giroud: work on Idruaada has begun, but again it's just an armature really - we may have more images next week though!
Stéphane NGuyen: Stéphane should begin work on Seza soon, but we're not sure when right now.
Christian Hardy: Christian will begin work on Aldhelm (taken from Maxime Penaud), Velchior and Agathae soon.
Tre Manor: Tre of Red Box Games fame will be taking time out for us to sculpt Erebius! He should start soon, too.
Patrick Masson: Uhtred's sculpt is complete and after that will be Gaarwäg (pronounced "GAR-wayg"), although he won't be complete until May.
Hector Moran: Hector is due to start work on the digital Dawn of Khthon, Gorgórar Unit shortly, and after that he will be digitally sculpting Con I Modius, Legionary Contubernium.
Olivier Nkweti: Dúngal on foot with helm, Ciniod, Itaina and Domnech are almost finished, and Dúngal on horse will follow. Once they're done he will digitally sculpt Hanokh and Thoth.
Juan Navarro Pérez: work on Danilo Cruz has begun, and Urien on foot, Urien on horse, Carys, Caedoc and Ffion Ferddig will follow.
Stéphane Simon: we've loaded Stéphane up with Leofwen on foot (who should be started shortly), Crom on foot (half way through), Crom on horse, Zethag, Annik, Gondard and his Nithing, Xontór, Thelliatiss, the Holumenn Unit and the Gesíth Unit. Phew!
Valentin Zak: lValentin will sculpt Broga for us and will begin doing so soon.
Unknown: the remaining three descendants, which are Rick Boer's Frisian Warrior (due to be drawn by Stefan Kopinski), Tomas Johansson's Geat Warrior (due to be drawn by Danny Cruz) and Maximilian Schüte's Germanic Berserker.

Now that is a lot of sculpts...
Darklands: First Edition II

Let's have a little more on our next project, "Darklands: First Edition II".

The definite (barring a zombie apocalypse) start date of this project will be Monday the 24th of March, and it should end thirty days later on Wednesday the 23rd of April. This neatly avoids Salute 2014 the weekend before (12th of April), at which we will have a stall, and is just after the easter holidays. We'll be running it for the full thirty days this time, too!

Whilst the dates for the next project lie before Darklands: First Edition begins to be fulfilled, there'll be no conflict between the two because the next project simply follows directly on from this project - i.e., those stretch goals that we didn't quite make it to (such as Gomagg the Giant and the Teulu) in this project will be amongst the first goals to go for in the next. Many of these early goals will be able to be shipped with earlier Waves, too!

We'll allow people to purchase both the Darklands rulebook (with Uhtred and Finnan), the Concept Art book and possibly a couple of other rewards from the First Edition project, but the whole thing will be a lot easier to grasp this time - there'll be no "hosts" or "starter sets" or anything like that, because they become incredibly complicated over time (and are a nightmare post-Kickstarter). Don't recoil in horror, however - we've hit upon a system that will replicate the discounts you get but also enables you to choose what freebies you'd like with what you purchase.

We've not decided on everything though so please don't ask for specifics yet! That will come in time, there's six updates to go before the project begins.

To whet your appetite, here's a concept of a miniature that we hope we'll get to during the course of the next project...

AND FROM KS1:

Update #77

Feb 7 2014
Nothing to see, just to read
Comment
7 likes

It's the end of an era, Mierceites - we have absolutely no miniatures to show you today, in this, the Friday update for Darklands: a World of War.

That doesn't mean we don't have anything to talk about, though, because we have the usual news about project fulfilment as well as new versions of most of the existing warrior profiles. We also have more news on the printing of the QuickStarter rulebook and the templates, so it's still worth a read!
Darklands: a World of War Fulfilment

Shipment of remaining items from Darklands: a World of War orders has begun, as some of you have seen, and where this is possible we'll also combine these remaining items with Wave 0 orders for First Edition items from the Darklands: First Edition kickstarter project. Once the QuickStarter Rules are printed, we'll start shipping those too!

Of those remaining items, the Limited Edition Penda with Wolf Helm, Chaagmuth on hoof, Brynhild Gunnblindi, Gamla Bror and Jowan and Drune-Hounds are shipping, along with Angrislaug, Vaak and Pétroyos. Qaano's begun shipping, too, along with Belech, although the latter's base (which will be 80mm) will be sent later when we receive them.

The first casts of Kernuor, Seer-Drune on Karnun-Beast should be sent next week as he's proved quite difficult to sort out for moulding. Aalvór's first casts should also be sent next week as he's easy, but it may be that the first casts of Leofwen on Great Hart, Maallolvór and Druc will be sent the week after thanks to Kernuor's delaying tactics. They'll be worth the wait, however - they're fantastic miniatures all!

As we have everything in our possession bar the Wælwulfas and the QuickStarter rulebook, we're now going to ensure that all of the other remaining miniatures from your orders will ship together. Whilst this may mean a delay for you, it makes sense for us to save money on postage in this way. We humbly ask that you remain patient until Leofwen on Great Hart, Aalvór, Maallolvór, Kernuor and Druc are all available to be cast at the same time, which should be next week. Obviously, if you're not waiting on any of those, your orders should ship soon.

We are getting there!
Remaining Sculpts

In terms of remaining sculpt progress, here's an update:

Benoît Cosse: It's the Wælwulfas for him next. He's not started them yet but we should see the first images very soon.

There's a few other bits and pieces yet to be done of course, so here's how progress is looking on those fronts...
QuickStarter Rules - v10.5

The latest version of the QuickStarter Rules - v10.5 - is the FINAL version before printing.

You can download them here: Darklands QuickStarter Rules v10.5

There are many minor changes from previous versions, so I would recommend - especially if you are familiar with those previous versions of the QuickStarter Rules - to have a good read through, and also please check out the Mierce Miniatures forum, in particular the "Darklands Rules Discussion" section and the "Observations from a first read" thread...

As before, please bear in mind that v10.5 of the QuickStarter Rules are to get you by until they're formatted for printing. As such, whilst they'll look very like these rules in terms of layout and the wording, they'll be a bit more... well, spangly when they're ready for print and download. Once the QuickStarter rules are printed (we're looking at some time in February), they will of course be sent out to you along with the remainder of your order.
Muster Rules

These will be worked on in February, although there's not much to change. These are download only of course, so we'll give you links when they're ready.
Warrior Profiles

We now have the Albainn, Angelcynn, Brythoniaid, Fomoraic, Norse, Vras and Ysian musters in the new format ready for download. Note that the Fomoraic and Angelcynn have had a few slight adjustments made to them, so please check them out.

Albainn Muster v1.2

Angelcynn Muster v1.5

Brythoniaid Muster v1.2

Fomoraic Muster v1.3

Norse Muster v1.2

Vras Muster v1.2

Ysian Muster v1.4

No doubt there'll be a few errors or typos - feel free to tell us about them!

It's worth noting again one major change from previous versions - gold costs. These have changed quite a lot, thanks to the introduction of new coefficients, so if you're used to the old gold costs - well, you'll have to get used to the new ones! This does mean that, at the moment, these musters will not play correctly with the Khthones and Sell-Swords, but they should be available for you next week.

There's also a handy pronunciation guide (based on the Wikipedia Pronunciation Respelling Key) under the warrior's title and, at the bottom of each profile, a suggestion on which miniature from our range to use as that warrior on the battlefield.

With just two musters to update, it won't be long before we can give you musters that include all of the miniatures that exist, found in this project or found in Darklands: First Edition!

If there's anything you need to know before the other warrior profiles are sorted, or about how the new format of warrior profile works, just ask on the forums please and we'll endeavour to answer your questions.
Templates

All of the templates required for existing miniatures and those from this project will be available very shortly indeed - we have the first samples (albeit in incorrect colours) and should be able to show you pictures of the finished templates in a couple of weeks' time.

We're on course to have them done by the end of February if not before, so expect them to be a March release. Remember, if you've ordered a Dyndraig Starter Set from this project, you'll get a 4" Fire Spray Template sent to you!

Images soon!
The End of Darklands: a World of War In Sight

We think that - around the end of March 2014 time (those Wælwulfas will probably push things back) - pretty much everything will be done for Darklands: a World of War; which will both be a sad day and an awesome day. Either way, we'll find some way to celebrate...!

There'll be another update next week though of course, hopefully with some images of the Wælwulfas!

Mierce updates are my favorite way to start Fridays!

A somewhat yucky treat for you foilks of Dakka.

I tried taking a crappy picture of my crappy paint job of Hirakoth of the Khthon after being goaded into it a week or so ago.

He needs some spots fixed up, the ink I was playing with splotched up on him, and the picture quality sucks, but as far as I know it's just about the only picture of him built and (sloppily) painted out there in the wild. There's barely ANY painted snakes out there!

I'll try to take a better lighted one later on. I've got a few more Darklands pieces I can post if mister three heads doesn't make your eyes bleed too much.



I still love how this guys coils are just all over the place on his base. I really wish Ssybrios had followed suit instead of having such a short and truncated bottom half.

I'm going to be on the hunt for Petroyos and Qaano as they start shipping out.

I wasn't thinking of doing him in greens but seeing yours I may have to reconsider

That's just sculpted over Hrudinn right? So probably not an actual release? Especially as we haven't seen an Egyptian/Assyrian faction yet.
