Cara looks great. Borax is not only a great dwarf, but a great reference. (Kills 'nids dead.) The Skyclad ogre is well sculpted, but more of a "butt'is face" than a terrifying monster. Skyclad Cara's pose is just confusing, and Skyclad Raisa is clearly dancing like that Ally McBeal baby. Grond is well, you know, he's Grond. Nothing really to say about him.

Also an etched brass restock in the architectural section and a small paint restock.
More details in tomorrow's newsletter but a cheeky heads up for our FB followers. You may also find some new additions, without images, added in too! smile emoticon

...I've been waiting since last summer.
*grin* We can only get them when they're available. We've made a few restocks and hings just aren't there when we do sorry.
(There's also a new sheet being added today that has an amusing typo on, they just aren't fixing it it seems)

The Modern Trooper 'bitz' page is a disaster at the moment, mould issues etc. We're 'definitely' sending off new moulds this month, so after Salute we'll be back in permanent stock of not only the long missing items but all the ones not added like the amusingly named 'Woody head'

NOTE this is not way implies the model above is based on the copyrighted character 'Marv' but merely notes that it could be used as Marv until such a time as an officially licensed 28mm Marv is available.

Huh?
Why?
Everyone knows Elsa is a blonde and Raisa is very clearly a redhead. You're just seeing things that aren't there.
I see that fiery red head in the red dress and think

Dragons fear nothing, if it acts up, we breath magic fire that turns them into marshmallow peeps. We leaguers only cry rivets!

Woody head was one of the things I wanted as well. The bush hat and balaclava combination means even less skin to paint!
Cheers for the heads up. I will bunker down for a bit more of a wait.

The cattle skull is what it looks like on the inside. I've seen diagrams.
Artemis, thanks for the response! Unfortunately, the larger my pile of shame grows, the more price sensitive I am when it comes to adding new minis.

No worries, understandable. For us, cheaper resin just doesn't work for minis, way too much quality control needed. It's usually only for companies who cast their own resin that end up with the better results as they can invest that time themselves.
We pay the extra money to not need QC on our resin, you're normally hard pressed to find the mould line on ours (Cue someone who got some horrible resin we missed ) but you do pay for that. Our production resin is a little cheaper, still top end quality but as it's mass produced it drops the price a little. Anythign that says 'resin master' that ain't getting any cheaper
Salute Pre-Order Code
As always there's a nice freebie on offer for those of you who order your Salute goodies in advance. You can pick from an extensive list of items (over 40 different codes from across our entire range!)
The code this year is the highly original 'SALUTE2016', and please remember you enter it on the 'confirmation' page, which is the last one before payment details. There's a box at the top of the page.
(Every code we get people writing it in the comments box, other than making me smile, that does absolutely nothing! )
Also if your order is over £60 then the chosen freebie will be dropped into a lil Steampunk-themed goodie bag, if you order over £120 it'll be a double sized bag and so on!
The code wil be active until Tuesday the 12th of April!
We aren't packing any pre-orders after that date, you'll just have to bring your lil scrappy piece of paper with you and we can both struggle to read your writing
Hassselfree resins are very nice, good details held, and the quality is so good! I have a few.

Well, just put in a Salute order consisting of a pair of minis and a crapload of conversion stuff I may or may not need somewhere down the road, including one of every Grimm power fist in the catalogue and etched brass for the hostess.
The freebies selection is also quite nice, went for Widow myself.
Check out my gallery here Also I've started taking photos to use as reference for weathering which can be found here. Please send me your photos so they can be found all in one place!!
Totally agree.
Not sure if I prefer Brother Vinni's not Ragnar though.

I like them both, even if she isn't quite she. I think it is the nose though, which might be fixable with paint. The bottom half of the face is a little big proportion wise compared to the eyes and head relative to the model.
Which is entirely irrelevant to me because I just want more vikings
