hmmm owing to fundages availabe i would be most interested in a box and looking at further purchases in the future. they look like a slightly higher tech version of a PDF army and would appear to be able to slot into a lot of gaming systems out there atm
very cool work E&C

What's the size of infantry ankles ? They looks smaller than 0.5mm and in my memories, extra thin ankles of MK1 IG infantry or MK1 hard plastic eldar guardians usually result in many many breaks during games.

Very true ... both ankles and wrists should be "beefed" up ... Like with Forge World ... I HATE fragile, not gamer friendly models ... :P :{[]

I'd be very interested but I'd prefer split smaller sets and no bases on the sprue. I'd also prefer more APC's to MBT's. I'd also prefer less command models to heavy weapons and more variety in the heavy weapons. As is I'd probably buy 3 sets and supplement the Infantry with other manufaturers. If the vehicles were split to seperate artilley, mbt and APC with Infantry box sets however I'd buy at least one of all the sets and probably three or four of the infantry at the same price point. You'd also get more repeat custom as I gradually decide to expand the force. Incidentally if you make the guns and turrets seperate for these later turret paks in whitemetal might be a sound venture.

I Could be wrong, but I know the designer has moved on to other projects. This was only really a "strawman" exercise. He has started his own 10mm Sci-fi lines ... see Troublemaker Games - viewforum.php?f=133

Over the years I've really come to appreciate the plastics, lightweight, easier to store and transport and convert, don't chip. I'd much prefer my guard army to be made up of items like this even over the e40k era metals (which is what they currently are).

I'm still toying with the idea of printing the moulds directly, and casting them in hardened bronze. But that still needs a working plastic injection machine calibrated to it, which might be difficult.

Reaper is installing a plastic injection machine in Denton - not too far from here.
