Subject: [Kickstarter] Phoenix Miniatures - The Unknowing Dead
After 8 months of hard work, the first Kickstarter of Phoenix Miniatures is finally live!
In this Kickstarter, we put up a series of 35mm resin-cast miniatures, based around the Undead.
Please take a look, and if it takes your fancy, drop in a pledge.
We are based in Sydney, and have negotiated shipping accounts with DHL to ship stuff around the world fairly cheaply. Except New Zealand; for whatever reason, DHL shipping to NZ is more expensive than anywhere else.
Domestically, we are still stuck with AusPost.
Automatically Appended Next Post: I have already been questioned whether shipping rates are accurate, as ROW shipping is on par with domestic shipping.
The shipping rates *are* accurate. I fought AusPost for a long time to negotiate a shipping account, and they refused to budge on domestic shipping rates. Their best offer on international rates was double that offered by DHL.
The end result was a clear win for DHL.

Not my style but they look nicely done. Good luck with the KS!
You might want to toss a few pictures of the minis here in the first post. I had to click a link and scroll down 7 times before I saw an actual miniature. I almost closed the tab 3 times - I wish I was kidding, but apparently that is what has become of my attention span.

Thanks, Jah. I will be doing zenithal primed pics this weekend. I think it will be easier to see the details. Just need to get past tomorrow at work ......

Yeah, pictures both here and on the campaign would help greatly. I also had trouble figuring out what was being made, since everything is thumbnail sized. Good luck though!

Typo on New Zealand shipping rates? 500g listed twice

Unfortunately, due to a lack of interest, I will be cancelling this project.
The good news is that, quite literally, all the stock is in. Every single miniature in this Kickstarter.
If you would like to purchase any of the miniatures, please send me a private message via Kickstarter, and it will be duly packed and shipped to you. The prices will remain identical.
Thank you for your support throughout. If you have any commentary or feedback, I would love to hear from you.
