RDG Gaming (https://www.facebook.com/faunmodels) who did the Fauns KS (and are being distributed by Wargames Atlantic) were playing about with ants for both SF and Fantasy but I have a feeling they're on the backburner at the moment (I can't find the reference to it though so I could be wrong)

Cool looking ant people. Thank you for posting the pictures

I tracked it down on wga’s fb page. As you said those are RGD concepts and wga has no current plans for ants.

Correct, on back burner. Some cool things to come out soon though!

I was and still am in search of fieldguns, the typical WW1 with gunshield / non etc, are there plans of a release of something in that way?

Ant-men? Where?

EDIT: Also, mention of lizardmen--even in passing---on their FB page has me hopeful.


Looks around with feverish eyes...... I ....I havent said anything like that!


Unless we announce a release or put a kit on preorder, anything is up for possibility, however nothing is certain.

Thank you! I had a creative slump about the time Covid hit, instead of letting it impact the project, I started delving into projects to boost creative flair. Passion projects of the like. Right now I have 4-5 project folders in que.

Wasteland, really like that head swap you went for! I think it makes them so much nicer. Just my opinion though, and I imagine seeing more painted originals could sway me.


Thanks! I don't hate the original heads, but for a small model count project like Kill Team it was worth the trouble to get the look I wanted. I have another box that will become a few units of Stormtroopers for a full-scale Guard army - with that many figures, I may just leave them with the originals.

Same thing with the lasgun barrels - out of the box the muzzles of the guns have this sort of duckbill shape rather than being round. On these ones I went through the effort of replacing (and pinning) with GW lasgun barrels, but it's such a minor point that I'm just not going to bother when doing more for this other project.

Lord Marcus,

My bad. I read the 'flavor text' posted on the FB page that referenced lizard creatures and some discussions that followed from fans and somehow got the idea that lizard people were coming sooner or later.

"As a horde of the lizard creatures prepare their final charge against the last two Grognard defenders, Lieutenant Gazan implores Premier Canonnier Legrand to defend the Eagle at all cost!"

Will they come sooner or later?


Maybe?

(I wonder if the reason the heads aren't working for Gallahad is the obvious join that doesn't have any clothes to hide it like most human kits do, perhaps some sort of collar/torc/necklace might help them blend better?)

Wargames Atlantic brainstorming sessions must be so much fun.

Another product that I have absolutely no use for...


...but will end up buying a box of anyway.

They could be penal troops alongside the Space Brits...or Conscripts.


Now, about those particle cannon carrying sloths mounted on jetsharks with eyeball lasers.

I, too, have no idea *why* I need lizards with guns, but it is a certainty that I need lizards with guns.

I think I might use them for Faithful (Sisters analogues) in my F28 inquisitorial army?

Thanks Kid Kyoto, but those guys are tiny and from a different period of European history which doesn't have the flair of the puff and slash clothing style.
