				<title>Lower Prices and New Models for BFG and Epic by GrimDarkBits on Shapeways</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ For my 1,000th post here I'm happy to announce that I've revamped a lot of the items for sale in my Shapeways shop, <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/product/2MPW39G4S/bfg-starfury-fighters-x32?li=shop-results&optiohttps://www.shapeways.com/shops/grimdarkbits">GrimDarkBits</a>, to bring them in line with Shapeways' new pricing policy! This doesn't sound exciting, but it makes a huge difference in pricing for some of my models.<br /> <br /> A year or two ago Shapeways made changes to their pricing formula which <i>greatly</i> increased the cost of some of my more popular models. My <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/product/2MPW39G4S/bfg-starfury-fighters-x32?li=shop-results&optionId=40874856">Starfury Fighters</a> suited for Battlefleet Gothic, for instance, jumped to about 5 times their original price! (For those who are curious, they started charging an extra dollar per individual part within a design, and started charging based on machine volume as well as part volume, meaning a model consisting of 36 individual fighter tokens spread out in a nice neat grid cost a bloody fortune).<br /> <br /> Anyway, I've finally gotten off my duff and fixed things to bring prices back to sane levels. Just a little sample of what's back on sale:<br /> <br /> In the <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/shops/grimdarkbits?section=Models+for+Games+Workshop%27s+Battlefleet+Gothic&s=0">"Models for Games Workshop's Battlefleet Gothic"</a> section of the shop, we have a set of seventeen <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/product/ACTXKQMV5/bfg-torpedo-markers?li=shop-results&optionId=43640392">torpedo markers</a> with varying numbers of torpedoes per base:<br /> <br /> <img src="https://images3.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/625x465_293943_134649_1446729005.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> Used to be nearly $50, now down to $24.95 (they also come as a set of 20 bases with <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/product/PUXQ6WPNM/bfg-torpedoes-3x-per-base-x20?li=shop-results&optionId=42484985">three torpedoes to a base</a> for $19.15).<br /> <br /> <br /> And here's a set of <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/product/PD5ZP3DJ9/bfg-fighta-bomba-markers-x36?li=shop-results&optionId=42988518">fighter-bomber tokens</a> suitable for Battlefleet Gothic. Once almost $60, now back down to $11.95!<br /> <br /> <img src="https://images1.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/625x465_333682_140703_1446723129.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <br /> Meanwhile, in the slowly expanding section of <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/shops/grimdarkbits?section=Models+for+Games+Workshop%27s+Epic+40k&s=0">6mm models</a>, we have a few newcomers:<br /> <br /> A set of three <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/product/YDZBU2RE8/6mm-super-kannon-wagons-x3?li=shop-results&optionId=11006033">Super-Kannon Wagons</a><br /> <br /> <img src="https://images2.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/625x465_1186865_12821924_1446915215.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <br /> A set of four <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/product/28XT77MKA/6mm-greenskin-fighter-bombers-x4?li=shop-results&optionId=56080149">Fighter-Bombers</a><br /> <br /> <img src="https://images1.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/625x465_3234908_12822010_1446915878.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> And a set of six <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/product/YQWL6RVJE/6mm-heavy-artillery-carriage-x6?li=shop-results&optionId=58133264">Heavy Artillery Carriages with Sandbag Emplacements</a> (better pictures coming soon)<br /> <br /> <img src="https://images3.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/625x465_3953991_12821811_1446914897.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <br /> So please feel free to poke around and see if there's anything new you like, or anything old you like the price of! Drop me a line if there's anything you'd like to see in the future. And apologies if this should go in N&R, but I'm pretty sure this section is the most appropriate place for this little announcement.]]></description>
