oh wow. These are amazing. I cannot hold back my admiration for these and all the other releases.

I am especially interested in the guys with daggers, swords and top hats. Absolutely superb.

I was a big fan of the three series Borgias and wished for such an army. Imagine an army of these guys, with steam tank leonardo style units up front, hordes of pikes and muskets, lethal organ guns and cannon at range and outriders, pistoliers swaggering around. Then imagine a sort of bad pope Borgia style boss on a giant throne (leader suggestion for you). How about up above, really winged beasts carrying lance armed riders and below, the Polish winged hussars.

Please do the Polish winged hussars. I love cavalry - that's obvious from the armies I have done already. I always overload on cavalry. I'd love to do so here.

Scenery for this is inspired by the figures - turreted walls, mansions, vineyards and temples / churches. Why not do some monks, mages, alchemists?

yeah, inspiring stuff. Ratmen, ogres, other releases, post apocolypse (I've been watching revolution on amazon instant). Loads of money and time will be spent. I can imagine the armies I want to create already. :D

Wow! Those are fantastic! I'm really getting excited about this line. I'd even be willing to wait longer for the Ratmen to get my hands on these... Keep up the great work!

Lovely! I don't care if I'll do an army or not, I'm getting the small steam contraptions just for fun anyway!

Extremely excited about this range, how will it be presented on your website, will it be under Italian renaissance, Think maybe an army deal on these would maybe a good a idea as you could shift a lot of minatures. Then just little future add ons ;)

Count me in for the first run of casts for these little fellows ;)

Glad everyone likes them! I thought he did a great job replicating the art for these. Just waiting on the horse dollies to be cast and the cavalry sculpts can be commissioned.

I was thinking of heading them as "Renaissance Fantasy", but then again I am afraid that will chase away historical customers. I might just make a separate historicals section, and have then sit under both (minus the more fantastical elements of course).

Hurry up and get these Italian bad boys on the website !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No but seriously when are they expected to go on sale ?

Also I know this sounds strange but any chance of getting some of these fellows in a picture by your were bats for scale purposes it would be most appreciated ;D

As im aiming for a Nosgoth themed armies vampires vs humans from the legacy of kain series and need to sculp some vampires also ;)

Many thx regards Epic

I'll get a comparison pic up with the werebats in the next couple days.

I'm not really sure on the release date yet, a number of things have to happen first. Assuming I commission the cavalry in November, maybe I will receive them by February. If I send them for molding in February, given the tremendous amount of molds, they would be ready for release in April at the extreme earliest.

The most likely release date is in July though, as it is going to take me a while to hoard enough money to pay for the moldmaking. Although I have thought about doing a pre-order drive to fund molding, I just generally dislike taking money and not being able to ship products for 2 months.

It also depends in some part on sales of all the upcoming new releases (Ogres, Microwasteland, Supertanks + friends).

I think personally look into pre orders, Same as crow funders really. I know what you mean about taking money before delivery but pre orders will give you funds for the moulds and also guauge intrest in the minatures. I think your on to a good thing with these little fellows and I personally would not mind paying for my minatures and then waiting for them to arrive in a few months.

Tmg does crowfunders, Onslaught does pre orders, it seems the way ahead ;)

Regards epic
