Pirate Goblin Box Set Indiegogo UPDATE II

 

$2,993
Raised of $2,500 Goal

29 days left

Update From Bruno

based on popular demand the set of dice if now available as a separate purchase for all existing funders. the dice will be green with a pirate goblin head replacing the "1" side. I'm finishing the mock-up and will post it today or tomorrow on this page.
If you want a set of 6 dice just add $10 to your perk (there is no need to cancel the existing one, just add $10 and it will be fine). The set will be sent with the miniatures post free worldwide !
For those who want more than 6 miniatures you can also choose to add more miniatures to your perk, any funder from the $30 level can add 1 miniature by adding $4 to his order, and of course you can do it as much as you want (you'll be able to choose individually which ones you want at the end of the campaign).
In the same vein if you change your mind and want more miniatures you can adjust your pledge at any time (for example if you opted for 1 set à $30 and finally decide that 2 sets would be better you just have to send the difference, that is $20 and tell me so in the survey at the end of the campaign).
I will send a survey at the end of the campaign so that you can detail what you exactly want based on the amount spent.
There are more stuff in the work but it seems that the summer heat makes all things longer than usual to be done !
======================================================

Just a reminder what the next goal will offer us:

If I manage to collect $5,000 then each miniature will be provided with a round 25mm resin scenic base instead of a bland plastic slotta base. This will apply to all perks containing miniatures, even the random one. All complete sets will then be in a collectable card box with exclusive art.
From this point the box set wil include your name (or nickname) as a supporter and will be signed by me.
I'll add to this a set of 6 exclusive green 6 sided dice with a pirate goblin head on one side (design to come) !

So we now need to get $2,007 then we get the new bases and a set of dice [I am going to buy a set regardless, and add at least three more gobbos to my band. one each of the generic looking ones,]

A big thx to those who have supported this project so far. With 29 days still left we will see many more goals and offers come our way. If there is anything anyone wants to let me know and I'll see if I can find out the answer.

ACW Project 5th Update

It was time to add the flags to my previously painted units. I only use one flag per Regiment/Brigade. I got the flags from:
The Wargame Vault

A full unit can be 2 stands to 4 stands. [a stand = 1 base]
I only use flags for the lead stand.

I printed the flags on to adhesive paper and saved the hassle of using glue. It took me a bit of time to get the fit right but I got it down now.

Here is an example of the Union:

Here is an example of the Confederate:


Also here is a scale comparison:

Will post more as I paint them.

ACW Buildings from Total Battle Miniatures

 

Gettysburg Seminary:

Assorted Buildings: Resin


Assorted Buildings: Resin


Assorted Buildings: Resin


The Town set up: A flexible resin tile is used.


Dirt Roads: flexible resin.


Rail fences: Metal


Snake Fences: Metal

Overall these pics do not do the Buildings any justice [add it up to my failing as a photographer]
These minis are not cheap but are not overly expensive. The detail is amazing and as I really wanted the Gettysburg Seminary [It will be part of my 1st day battles of Gettysburg]
The service was good with no hassles. For international buyers the quoted postage cost is for overland NOT air mail. You will need to pay extra.
but its not much more. so its all good. I am rather nervous about painting these buildings I have never used Resin terrain before and its all quite new. they did provide me with an in depth painting guide. The good thing about ACW buildings is the patchier the painting the better, [eg weathered]
I'll post pics once I get them started.

Pirate Goblins Box Set ~ at Indiegogo

 

French designer who has decided to use indiegogo as Kickstarter is not available in Europe yet.

http://www.indiegogo.com/pirate-goblins?c=home

These Gobbos would be great for the Cutlass game or even Mordheim.
and at $30USD for the first 5 [the additional 6th gobbo is added once they reach the target] which also includes worldwide postage is a BARGAIN!!!!
only thing you need to beware is that payment is upfront. its not like kickstarter where the money is taken once the project is funded. This one the money is taken when you pledge your level. so this particular project is more of a pre-order but we are hoping we will get to see more of these awesome pirate goblins.

ACW Project 4th Update

Here is the start of the Confederate Army:

Currently painting up some Confederate Artillery, and Cavalry. Will update once these are done. Been asked to show how I paint up 6mm miniatures so once the Cavalry and artillery are done I’ll do a stage by stage progress on the next Confederate Infantry I do.
