First look at the new minis!

Here is your first look at a Sturmtruppen fresh from the caster. Please excuse the terrible homemade wash and the poor quality photos :)

I will post pics of all the raw sprues and the complete selection when time allows. My main priority at this point is getting these in the hands of all the Kickstarter folks that made this possible… THANK YOU to all who participated! Without your support these would not be a reality.

Here are a couple of well-lit shots viewed through my desk magnifier.
 

Here is a scale comparison with a few popular lines.

And some shots at table level to give you an idea how they blend with other minis.

I have to send a big thanks out to Jeff over at FortressFigures. He did one hell of a job with some very complex minis and the quality shows. As a vendor I give him a solid “A” start to finish.

After all the Kickstarter orders have been sent, I will update the website and open up sales.

Looking at the final product is very exciting, I think my only criticism is that they look a little leggy, but with the accessory packs and some leg or hip mounted ammo pouches I think the extra bulk and details will really make these shine. You can see from the first set of pics I added the medics pack and Sergeants knife to give it a little bling :)
Here is what will be available to add the bling factor.


I hope you enjoy them….

All the best!
Mark-

And just for the big boys:

  6. An outstanding achievement, Mark. These look magnificent and will be fabulous for SF 28mm skirmish games of all sorts.

    No doubt you've already got something in mind, but should you be looking for a professional painting service to do them justice for marketing, please consider Precinct Omega. We would love to have the chance to give these minis a really A1 paint job.

  7. If I didn't already have a Guard army I'd seriously be tempted. Any chance we can get the guns separate?
