Is it limited in terms of number of slots or time?

Wow, I cant tell you how long I've been waiting for some proper looking fantasy human soldiers, and even more-so, heavy armored infantry. These models are fantastic and I fear my bank account will be sorely tested in the coming weeks.

Is there any way we could get scale shots next to LOTR minis?

i'm sorry i can't, i haven't them here but i can confirm you that they don't scale well with LOTR miniatures, while are perfect in the scale of warhammer fantasy

The limited early bird is limited to 1000 slots

the campaign time is 30 days

Huh.

The race is on then, I suppose!

Thanks for the response!

I'm sorely tempted by that jump in product from 120 to 140!

I may have to go big!

Most campaigns stopped doing limited slot Early Birds a while ago, and with good reason since it makes backers angry. Some still do time-limited Early Birds which is slightly better at least.

Much as I'd love to be wrong I think that 1000 early bird slots for this will give people who want to back plenty of time to do so

It's not going to be a CMON style 30 seconds and done (and even then they stopped doing them as they didn't need them not because backers didn't like them.... generally projects since they've stopped have had fewer backers too, although I think that's more down to the projects and more KS competition than EBs)

<sighs> I was trying to find an artist to professionally draw my vision of elves for FF to possibly produce, so that we don't end up with more GW skirted/Lotr Samuraiesque clones and got sidetracked by my heart attack.

I hope FF goes with a classic medieval/fantasy non GW look for them.

i think you will be happy.

Does that mean they'll look like the Oathmark elves? I hope not.

The stuff looks very, very nice. But I need stuff NOW so I'll comtinue to troll ebay for Bretonia stuff until those are easily available.

Great looking models but I'm getting a dreamforge vibe of them overextending a little too much. Seems like they have 2 kickstarters worth of models atm...

Hey there... Oh yeah...

Lovely looking stuff in the Kickstarter and will definitely buy into this in good measure. Any chance of any quirky extras being added in to the design process at any stage like small terrain pieces or unit fillers? (Thinking of things like dead villagers on furniture and lying against fences etc)

Was also wondering what the Dwarves will be like? What style - imperial, gw mountain clan etc?

If I may give my opinion here, I would really like to see elves, done with the aesthetics of the 'Lands of Arran' comic books series (which is great BTW).

we are not offering design changes or other stuff to add because in this way we will not have delays in shipment of the final products, we prefer to work step by step

about dwarves, we are still working on their design

Since you're still working on the Dwarfs, I'll make a suggestion - can they be "classic" in proportions? By which I mean something like the old GW metal Longbeards(what were they, 5th edition?).

I'm super bored of the endless parade of LotR-proportioned Dwarfs, I'd love to have access to a modern plastic range in that classic actually-look-like-another-species style rather than "normal bloke but shorter".

I'd love this too. I'd definitely be in for a box or two if they were different enough (than just a 20mm-scale human...)

Thanks!

I read this as "oatmeal elves"

I'd be down for some oatmeal elves!

How are they classic and medieval, then? Knowst thou not thy code words appertaining to thy descripxions miniaturical?

I like the oathmark elves and I bought a ton of them. But....my plan now is to get a ton of FF's Byzantines and put the oathmark heads on them. I like the scale mail look and overall eastern but not oriental aesthetic for elves.

it's quite difficult to give you a description for a concept still work in progress

Living Dead warriors finally painted and ready for #kickstarter

very nice

Fast kitbash only with glue work of our current historical plastic range with parts of our future fantasy range

hmm the more heroic scale of the fantasy parts is noticeable and doesn't scale well with the historicals the hands are below the knees (which is not a criticism of either kit just together they aren’t ideal).

Great to see that they are scaled for fantasy miniatures. Also a big step forward that they have removed the plastic surfboards from the feet. I hate those things. The living dead look great all painted up.

What's that terrain in the back?

damn, I really wish I could back this for those armored zombies. I don't understand why nobody has made any yet other than you guys.

Yes it’s the Renedra tower - they have them in the add ons section

Hmmm. I've never gone in on a Kick Starter, but this might have to be my first.

Such quality models here. Pretty much what i wanted from Frostgrave but never really got (though they have been improving)

Will be watching with interest.

This is looking pretty sweet, I really like the zombies (particularly the armored ones).
