I absolutely love the stuff, but I always face the same problem when ordering from companies outside the EU... whenever the total amount including shipping I get hit with a other 25 € flat fee for them to bother charging me an other 21% (import charges) of the total invoice amount,

so for the Master workstation combo for example I end up paying just over 300€ with the import fee and taxes added for a kit that would be under 230€ without them. I simply can't justify the extra 70€+ for ordering outside the EU.

Anyway, keep up the great work (and good luck in working out a agreement with a EU based company)

Yes? No?

No idea on cost. haven't even come close to working that out.

They are kinda straight...



but can be posed (posed?) all bendy like.



Also updating the Uridium Space Modulators for laser cutting.

Inside your mind, corrupting the pathways

Pretty cool, but I think there should be an option to add walls to the tower to use as an observation platform. I think the best thing about that kit is how it looks when assembled into the compound - looks snazzy. Perhaps create a removable wall section so the tower can sit in as part of the wall as well?

The modulators look pretty cool. If you could get a very thin (<1mm?) set of wood (possibly even a stiff paper at that point) to laser cut decals for some of these kits (especially the advanced space robot kits), or even tread/brick/etc patterns etc so people can use them to create patterned flooring/walls on top of their own kits/builds, then you would be another step ahead of the competition. It is something I have suggested to a number of companies/people who have posted these kinds of kits on Dakka but I have yet to see it happen.

I kinda did this for the challenge, really. wanted to see if I could manage the space elf look with flat pieces. I think it's turned out okay.

mind you, a bit of judicious sanding reduces the chunkiness and cheers things up quite a bit.

Haha, cool.

A corner for joining up sections of the space elf wall to make longer straight sections might be an idea.

I am continually bummed that I missed out on CNC stuff when it was carried in the US by places like the Warstore and FRP Games. Aside from the obvious terrain, I have wanted to get one of the medieval dice towers to make a good sturdy dice tower that is also functional scenery for my fantasy games.

Woot. it's alive!







Not too bad with a bit of the aforementioned judicious sanding. Which is VERY easy to do with MDF.

Walls are 26mm tall (or 1.0236220472", because I love the irony of expressing imperial measurements as decimals and I'm feeling a bit pedantic this morning).

I have a brand new cutting mat. and an inability to take pictures in focus.


Also; We've come to a desicion about overseas postage and wotnot, but we cant implement it for a few weeks yet as we need to update our manufacturing software so we can easily cope with larger orders. Bare with us. It's happening.

That's really cool stuff. Can't wait to see it painted.

The USS Orinoco was a Federation Danube-class runabout that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century, attached to Deep Space 9. It was outfitted with a sensor pod.

Looks good with the sanding to round off/shape parts.

Was just going to ask about where we were on the shipping thing. As with the new releases, I have been sharing the pics with some friends who are keen on making orders, so this is good news all round. Thanks and looking good.

All of the instructions are on the site for the curious.

Next up; Forklifts and sci-fi widgets (a couple of weeks or three...)

This is looking lovely, if only the shipping and import fees weren't such a killer.

The water tank is cool, but not something that I would buy... Too easy to use z soup can.

But the shipping container is awesome.

Working on that. Keep in mind too that the price has effectively dropped 10% for Americans and most of europe recently because of the fluctuating $.



Edit: instructions link now fixed.

Love the worm

I was going to post that I love the sci-fi walls and container (looks like an ore shipper), but I have had to reserve the word "love" just for the worm

Excellent sculpt - will be interesting to see how easy it is to put together (and how much swearium is required ).

Indeed, I thought the Forge World Breaching Drill looked brutal

I'd love to paint that worm up. I have a scenario I'm devising around a group of miner/pirates and this would make a nasty surprise for the players

Welcome to Fantasy 40k

If you think your important, in the great scheme of things. Do the water test.

Put your hands in a bucket of warm water,
then pull them out fast. The size of the hole shows how important you are.
I think we should roll some dice, to see if we should roll some dice, To decide if all this dice rolling is good for the game.

I'm going to have to make the spine easier to build, but with the option of posableness to those feeling a little more adventurous.

Also, I missed a few bits from behind the head, so it will be a bit more detailed in there with the proper version.

Lovr how thr base looks. Only thing i am not keen on is how open the back is between the armour plates at tge extreem forward bend.

Other than that it looks great.
