New Impact! Kickstarter Beastface Chaos/Human teams- Nov '15

[axiom]

On the subject of scale, the greens arrived yesterday and I took these (awful) comparison shots, shown with the current GW minotaur, Heresy Wight, Prince Moranion and a 2nd ed lineman:





Hopefully the scale looks OK to you folks?

Just a quick update - greens went for master casting on Friday; I hope to have some masters to show you by the end of next week, and painted versions as soon as I can!

Hi axiom, how's the casting going with these guys?

Hi axiom, how's the casting going with these guys?

It's all going a bit slowly unfortunately. I can't production cast until the first 3 figures have been converted to give me my 6 variant figures. My sculptor has had a ramp up of work meaning there's been a 4-5 week delay in him starting the conversions. At current predicted timescales, I should have the converted figures by the end of Nov, which will then be a squeeze to have stock ready before Christmas!

It all sounds straightforward when I started the process

Good things come to those who wait
They're really cool, as I said a few months ago, ill be buying!!!

[el Superbeasto]

Any news on the progress, Axiom? (Except that they might be slightly bigger than my preferred liking,) I think these are the coolest looking beastmen to this date - and yes, I have seen the Willy ones!

Are you psychic or something?! Look what pics landed in my inbox at about 11.50pm last night:



After some months of delays, the variant figures have been sculpted and should be with me by the end of the week. Mouldmaker Pete is lined up to master cast these three, then roll out production. I'd like to think they'll be on sale by early-mid March!

I am indeed, and I know all about the pictures that landed in your inbox last night. Shame on you, axiom, shame on you!

Look great the new greens! How many different beastmen models are you going to make altogether?

[axiom]

Just the 6 models initially, mainly as it gives people enough figures to add to 4 chaotic warriors and minotaur to make an 11-man team, and also because I don't have enough cash flow to have more sculpted!

If these sell well, I'll be looking to add to the this team, then perhaps seeing what other races we can do.

[the solitaire]

6 sounds just fine. They look great! Pretty much the only BB beastmen miniatures I actually like straight away!

[bound for glory]

i look forword to getting these figures! i've been toying with the idea of another chaos team, and these beasts look like they will be perfect!

[el Superbeasto]

BUMP?...

[Fassbinder75]

I know how hard it is to see an idea to production, but I'd dearly love some of these beasties!

[axiom]

Ha! Thanks for the bump. I can't believe it's been over a year since I received the first greens of these chaps. Exciting news - I've just literally come off the phone with the caster, having received the final sets of masters a couple of weeks ago. Production moulds are going to be made this week, with the intention of having production casting start next week.

I now need to paint up my masters, sort out the pricing and all that sort of stuff; I would expect that I'll be ready to take orders mid-August!

Great news. Can't wait!
