Yo, I Heard You Like Spikes

I’ve had my first vaccine shot, I’m back in the office & workshop, and I’m nearly caught up on back orders! On top of that, here’s a new release! Holy spiky spikes, Batman! It is about time.

The theme, as you may have deduced, is spikes. Bigger spikes, rounder spikes, ornate spikes, veteran spikes. Spikes.
I’ve stopped short of putting spikes on your spikes, but I’m open to such a commission should anyone feel they aren’t getting sufficient spiky action. I’m not here to kink-shame you.
There will also be arc versions of the conical spikes to follow, so keep an eye out for those.

Of course, these have all been made available in squad pack form.

Less spiky, but still pointy, we have two lengths of ninjato with matching saya. Whilst this sword is almost certainly a fabrication of the 1970s, it still looks pretty cool in the hands of your super soldier of choice.

Closing out this wave of releases, we have the return of the ghillie hellmask heads, and our second set of waterslide decals. If you’d like to see any existing pauldron design on a sheet, contact us and we’ll arrange it. Customs will be coming, but my workload is a little too high right now to offer that service as standard.

Thanks for checking these out. Stay safe and enjoy life getting back to normal!

Continued Craziness

As I mentioned in my previous post, things have been crazy. Well, things have continued to be crazy. I am barely keeping up with orders as they come in. Whilst people often respond that this is a nice problem to have, I’m in danger of getting a reputation of being glacially slow to deliver, and my freelance work is suffering. It is only with the help of a friend that I am getting order fulfilled, and I’m looking into making that an official arrangement. This takes a little time, so please bear with me. Growth is painful and I appreciate your patience!

A Bushido release was promised, and is still coming, but I managed to get a few new squad packs products added to the store, as these are really just a packaging variation. I hope they prove useful for people.

For any fans of the wheels I’ve produced, you’ll be happy to know I’ve bought the new SM buggy and will be working on some wheels for it. This will take some time, and the Bushido release will happen first.

Grav Release

Well, it has been a crazy couple of weeks! The katana-style swords and outrider wheels sets have been in huge demand, making it very difficult for me to fulfil orders in a timely fashion – even those without wheels. I’m mostly caught up now, but those items may still be subject to delays, as I haven’t yet managed to build up a good stock of all options.

Anyway, a new release! 100% grav pads! If there are any other existing designs you would like in grav format, please use the contact form to let me know. There is no setup fee for updating an existing design to grav format.

I’ll have more Bushido releases coming in a week or so. Only a month later than I hoped!

Ride Out!

The existing bike wheels range has been modified to produce kits which, with a little careful cutting, will fit GW’s Indomitus Outrider bikes.

These are also, of course, available in a squad pack.

Released on the store a few weeks back, a range of Japanese-inspired swords…

…plus some saya, or scabbards, which can be assembled sheathed or drawn.

GW, Games Workshop, Space Marine, 40K, Warhammer, Warhammer 40,000, Outrider, Indomitus are either ® or ™, and/or © Games Workshop Limited

Hunkering Down

First of all, thank you to everyone who has ordered since we went into isolation and then lockdown. It’s really helped to have some sales coming in. Despite fulfilling print-on-demand orders, I’ve been somewhat anxious about the delay in fulfilling the rest leading to a massive pile to catch up on! Fortunately, I was able to access my workshop this week and retrieve the bulk of my resin stock. This means many orders containing pauldrons, hands, wildlife, etc. have been packed.

Whilst resin products may be listed as in-stock, I am normally able to cast them when actual stock is depleted. This currently isn’t the case, so those order containing items which need to be cast are still on hold. I will email those customers as soon as I have an understanding of the situation.

I still can’t say when I may be able to restart the casting side of the business. Even if I can gain access to my workshop again in order to retrieve equipment and materials, the business has expanded somewhat since I moved out of the garage – and quite a few other things have moved in to take the space – so I’m not quite sure how to arrange things. As it stands the conservatory is already housing a couple of 3D printers, postage boxes, and crates of resin products!

I’ll try to get a stock-take done soon, so you can know whether the item you want exists or not. In the meantime, feel free to contact me and ask in advance of placing an order. Additionally, I’d like to clarify what is definitely available to order:

Anything with the ‘print-on-demand’ tag

Speaking of movement trays, there are a few new releases! These designs were made at the request of two customers. Need something custom? Just ask!

Stay safe and paint your minis!
