And yet another work in progress


Another lady in lace, in short coat and tricorn.

I need to ask sculptor to add a scabbard & sword. Do you like what you see and do you want to see more. Kickstarter launch is now only days away, I have got the webspace, I have the business cards, I have another sculptor.

I was seeing the Mouldmaker yesterday until the engine management system failed on my Landrover, so I have had to re-arrange until next week.

I hope to have other exciting stretch goals to announce.

And still aiming for an August/September shipping date.

More Images... Kick Starter....

Coming soon... the Ladies in Lace, (Dames en Dentelle)

and the VBCW fighters (brand name yet to be determined)

Pictures of more work in progress from the sculptors.


Three figures (work in progress)

 
I am working with suppliers to fix prices on each stage of the process... and I am aiming to offer more variants as the campaign builds.

At the moment, I wonder what stretch goals to mention...

add on for VBCW machine gun team.
add on for VBCW grenade/molotov cocktails team

Artillery crews?

Floras for lace war?

What would you like to see?

Kickstarters - Love them or hate them?

I am closing down on the dates for the launch of my Kickstarter campaign. I have struggled these last couple of weeks with other concerns (dental and eye clinic visits for me, and hospital visits for my girlfriend... ) and finally got the money from the bank... only to have my account put on hold due to irregularities...?

I have been told that this will last until Tuesday, so I should be paying two sculptors by paypal then, and the third sculptor will have to wait until the Friday.

My personal armies/projects have been ticking over, and I am in contact with some other sculptors for a related project.

I am getting the scenery pieces done for the summer game - rather more slowly than I would have hoped, and I am hoping to visit Foundry - in Nottingham to pick up some quality pieces in the morning.
