Yup, casualties would be a nice addition (as would be a merchant with some sort of vendor's tray selling stuff to the crowd)

Ah, someday somwhere someone will do them (knowing my luck probably as limited editions that are all sold out by the time I find the site offering them).
Wonder if these newish resins (the kind that's more like plastic) wouldn't be good for vehicles in general. Less brittle/ likely to break but not as bendy as some plastic stuff out there.

Eye Candy / Re: Village kiddies
« on: September 02, 2008, 09:32:46 PM »
Whenever there's some more of the kiddies added to the range, I wonder how you'd feel if someone zombiefied them (referring to the minis obviously) because I quite often think if I ever bought some I'd probably do just that. Simply not enough undead little ones out there.

I was more thinking resin with metal parts. (I didn't even mention how nice it would be if there were conversion kits to turn them into armed retro scifi flying/hover cars).
I know it's not the best way to earn good money, not last of all because the vehicles probably would have a rather limited range of buyers. As for retailers, I guess the most sensible way (costwise) would be to sell them on the webshop exclusively.

As this seems a fitting place to ask again:
Add some musical instruments as well, for conversions. Guitars, a bass (I mean an upright/ double/ whateverelseitscalled bass*), drum kit. (Surely some day one of the companies on here must give in and realize what a great opportunity this is to earn almost nothing from something that takes up a lot of time to sculpt)
*
Some hotrod gangs would be nice. Might even be a good basis for some postapoc conversion and zombies and so on.
And some nice fifties style hotrods would be really great**, also some motorcycles and drivers for both.
**(as would be yakuza in Hawaiian shirts)

Ideas for New Heresy Models / Re: Half-dragon heads
« on: August 31, 2008, 09:40:42 PM »[...]These "dragon lizard people" are supposed to be able to give birth and stuff (and look like one of the daftest playable races ideas since Planescape came out).
Do you mean fluff wise or from an aesthetic point of view?
Some look good, others less so. Wouldn't mind some nice Draconians, so maybe an additional set of wings & tails to go with these would be a good idea

Haven't forgotten about this, but other stuff keeps interfering.
After I finish sculpting that little demon I started, I'll get back to making some more tiles. I'd appreciate some more ideas/ comments on the tiles made (not the demon since I won't show any wips or he'll suffer from the neverfinishitsyndrome).

The carpet- is that a piece of cloth you painted? Carpet and pillow have a nice satin look to them.
Both miniatures look very good, first one's really clean and smooth looking.

Finding a miniature in the right pose really isn't that easy. I'm seriously considering converting something as that seems to be the 'simplest' way

not exactly a fighting pose, but rifle over the shoulder:

that should be enough pics to explain what I mean

The Spyglass Melting Pot / Re: A Lady friend.......
« on: August 28, 2008, 03:04:36 PM »I'll be honest, I've no clue at all as to Spyglass' direction for the time being. It's blatant that nothing I'm doing right now is striking a chord with the buying public at large.I just buy what I like, since not being a gamer means I don't have to buy units and i don't have to worry about how different companies' minis look when ranked up together. That said I think the main problem (besides longish periods of no new releases) is that you don't really have a coherent range of minis that could be used as (small) units as of yet. Most of your minis are more interesting for painters/collectors or for use as characters for rpgs.
I bet once you'd concentrate on one or two 'army themes' for a while you could sell more. For example two more barbarians and two or three female barbarians (all of which ideally should be easily convertable to postapoc stuff, that way you'd cover two genres at once) would most likely generate more sales than just one or two barbarians since that would allow people to buy a unit at once instead of just a single miniatures that might not fit in with what they allready have.

Do you still have the other one? Would be interesting to see them directly side by side.
This one's looking warm colourwise (hope that makes sense), especially the skintones. Love the way you've painted the jacket, really accentuates the different parts/ textures.
Base is lovely and complements the mini nicely and really helps to give it that outdoorsy feeling too.
