I’m not really sure about timing for anything, but I can speak in generalities.
Some of the 6mm Elves have already been mastered. The sculptor is adjusting a few models that will need to then be reprinted, then all of those can go for moldmaking. But that can take some time. It is also quite a lot of molds to pay for.
I am bringing many of my older 6mm fantasy lines in house for casting, as my main caster is running short of storage, and many of the molds are spun maybe once a year. By mid-year I should be casting about half of all of the 6mm Fantasy armies myself.
The massive undead expansion, depending on how long it takes the elf prints to come back, may end up getting slotted for release prior to the elves.
Work continues to hum along on the Dieselpunk project. The insect nomad infantry and light vehicles are out for moldmaking. Some test orcs have been sculpted, the rest will follow soon. Some stahlritter vehicles will be trickling out as they are finished, one is in for moldmaking now. The rules for the line are also being worked on. I will not be releasing the orcs and insect nomads until the rules are ready. The stahlritters I will likely release as they are finished, as they have proxy potential for other systems.
The fantasy naval project is quite far along. A couple of orc escorts are being sculpted now, but really I have 5 starter fleets sculpted and ready to go, with some extra releases for Dwarves and Orcs. The rules are also still being worked on. The art for the book has been commissioned, but I imagine it will take a little while to finish. I will likely be releasing the Orc and Dwarf fleet some time in the 1st quarter of this year, despite the rules not being ready. This is partially to generate funds to finish up the project, and also a bit of market research to see if I absolutely need to do a Kickstarter or not to generate interest and advertisement. My preference would be to not crowdfund, but if a general release seriously underperforms, I will have to resort to Kickstarter.
In terms of other random stuff, 3mm scifi buildings have been printed, and will be sent for resin moldmaking soonish. Some could even play double duty for 6mm. I also have acquired the rights to Team Kukri in 3mm, which should be released this year.
The 6mm scifi Dreg infantry, cavalry, and trolls are being sculpted now. All vehicles have been sculpted and are being printed/mastered now. Once I have some masters I need to send them to the physical sculptor so that he can sculpt the extra bits for the vehicles…dreg tank riders, totems, skeletons, dead bodies and such that can be added to the vehicles for extra flavor. I will likely commission some art for some super heavy tanks as well. I’m looking forward to the line finally being released this year.
