Hi Backers and Watchers!
And we're off to a very solid start, at 30% funded in just the first 24 hours!
As ever with our campaigns, we're intending to add to our offer as the days tick by, and look forward to showing some snapshots of our future vision as well...
The more support we get, the more we can make!
For now, thank you to all our Backers for the amazing support shown so far, and curses unto the tenth generation for the 99.999e% of people who haven't (yet) pledged to support the Kickstarter. Ahem.

Hi Backers and Watchers!
We're 48 hours in now, and 35% Funded already. That's ahead of pace compared to our usual funding rate, by way of comparison. We normally see a bit of a slow-down in the middle of the campaigns, and then a rush of pledges towards the end... let's see how this one continues!
While we're here, here's an extra picture of the plastic 25mm Urban Bases sprue;
We'll see you tomorrow, for more fun, frolics, and funding!

We're now up to 40% Funded with 28 days remaining in the Campaign - well ahead of our planned schedule!
As we enter next week, we'll start adding extra STL files to the campaign. We're also going to look at adding extra physical model pledges, both in the form of more discount deals for our existing model sets, and also some entirely new models too.
While we're updating, here's some extra views of the Plinths Sprue;

Thanks for all your support so far everyone, it's great to be off to such a strong start!

Campaign Update : 45% Funded! Printable Bases STL Pack Added to the Campaign.
Hi Backers and Watchers!
We're over 45% Funded now, with the campaign just under 20% complete, so we remain well ahead of schedule!
This week of the campaign, will be STL BASES WEEK. We've created an STL Bases Pack, starting with seventy-two 25mm disc bases, and every day we'll add more sizes and styles of bases to the pack.
The STL Bases Pack is available for pledging now, for £10, either as a stand-alone pledge, or as an add-on pledge.
What sizes, shapes, or styles of base would you like to see added to the STL Bases Pack?
We're also looking at the possibility of adding something extra to the plastic urban bases sprue... keep your eyes on the Kickstarter as we work on that...
For now, thank you for your continued support everyone!

Campaign Update: 50% Funded! 96 more Bases added to the STL Bases Pack.
Hi Backers and Watchers,
We've passed 50% Funded now, nice one everyone!
To celebrate we're adding 96 more bases to the STL Bases pack, consisting of 25mm versions of the three existing terrain types but with standard sized sockets for infantry models, and also 32mm sized bases. Tomorrow.. 40mm?
That's a total of 168 STL base designs at this time.
Thanks for your continued support, everyone!

Am I insane or is there really not an "everything" more or less pledge? Don't make me pick and choose stuff, give me a reason to go all in or I'll get choice paralysis and let it pass me by.

Well then, I've created a Big Combo Pledge level, which includes some of everything of the plastics, including a nice extra discount on top of the already applied discounts, does that suit?

What a great weekend - We're now over 100%, and thus are FUNDED!
Our Funding Pathway ahead currently looks like this:
£5000 - FUNDED!
£6500 - We will add 2x 32mm Urban Bases to the Plastic Urban Bases sprue.
£8000 - We will Unlock an Urban Districts Sprue for pledges.
We're also looking to add some more STL files (and also physical resin models) to the campaign as we progress, and for this week we'll be focusing on the Plinths for that...
Some of the upgrades we're preparing for the plastic modular Plinths...
Thank you for all the incredible support you've shown us so far everyone, let's see what else we can fund in the days ahead!

We're now over 105% Funded, and are steadily creeping up on 110%.
At the moment at the TMG Studio, we're working on creating some more add-ons for the Plinths set. By the end of the week, we'll be adding a new scatter terrain STL set to the campaign for purchase, and also make some of the new models available as physical models as well.
Thanks for continuing to back us so far - do tell your social media friends about us, too!

We're adding a new STL files pack to the campaign today - a new Scatter Terrain set, perfect for use with our modular plastic plinths sets.
We'll be continuing to add to the STL files in this set during the rest of the campaign - which still has two weeks to run!
In addition, we're going to start making some of our STL models available for physical pledges, as well. The first of these is the Resin Statues on Octagonal Plinths set. Each statue is 45mm tall from plinth base to cowl tip, and will look mighty spooky when placed on your awesome TMG terrain-covered gaming table...
The Resin Statues are available to pledge for now, exclusively available as Add-Ons for other physical model kit sets.
Thank you for your backing so far everyone, we're really excited about seeing what more we can get Funded over the next 14 days!

Today's extra STL file is a pedestrian footbridge, added to the STL Scatter Terrain Pack, for all your teeny civilians to use on their morning commutes to the metal skull factory.
See you tomorrow, for more Plinthy-Basey-STLey fun!

In our continuing quest to create some really boring scatter terrain, today's extra item for the Scatter Terrain STL set, is a majestic telephone mast.
We'll also be adding some more Resin scatter terrain items to our Campaign by week's end.
Please feel free to share our campaign on your social media channels, and convince your friends to pledge...
Cowabunga dudes!

We're into the last seven days now - this is when things tend to start getting quite exciting, in our experience.
To open the weekend, we're adding the public fountains as physical resin purchases, now available as add-ons to any pledges you've made for physical kits.
We're look forward to the final week of the Campaign now - and can't wait to properly reveal what the Urban Districts plastic Sprue concept looks like, should we inch a bit closer to the goal...
Tell your friends about the Kickstarter!
Tell your enemies about the Kickstarter!
Tell five random people at the bus stop about the Kickstarter!
Tell your pets about eldritch lord Cthulhlu... and also the Kickstarter!
Thanks for your support so far everyone,

Campaign Update: Almost 125% Funded, Gothic District Pledge Added, Single Landing Pad Add-On Added.
Hi Backers and Watchers,
70 Hours Remain!
We're currently at the amazing position of being almost 125% Funded, so to celebrate (oh okay, also we were simply asked to add them!) we're adding two more items to the Kickstarter, available for pledging now:
Gothic District Discount Bundle
This set would normally cost £58 at RRP, reduced to £50 as a special offer for this Kickstarter.
Single Landing Pad Add-On Pledge
We've added a Single Landing Pad pledge for two Airbase sprues (ie, half an Airbase set, which is normally four sprues), for £7. Available as a top-up pledge only.
Thank you so much for your incredible backing everyone, we're so honoured by all the support you've given the campaign so far - and 70 hours is a lot of time for idle sculpting fingers to add a few more bits to our STL sets, no doubt...
