Hi everyone, I've put together an accessory sprue as an add on. Just treat it as the same as a head sprue add on, and let me know that it's what you want on the survey after the campaign.
Image
From left to right we have: pouch, water bottle, harpoon gun, neutral arms (L/R), open hand for rifle (the fingers are staggered at an angle not jumbo!), rifle arm (fits open hand or cut away gun for conversions), flask, spade, pouch, rifle (no strap), rifle in hand.

I'll be posting more pictures and updates through the week, with the reorganised and unlocked stretch goals on Wednesday.

Hi everyone, we're nearly there with 7 days remaining!

I took some time to review the project over the weekend and did some calculations so I can give you guys as much as possible. I had initially planned out the rewards to cover the best/worst outcome, what I envisaged was taking lots of small pledges with any and all goals unlocked being added on unevenly in different quantities across a random spread of backers, thus potentially costing me lots in mastering with many production moulds.

What has actually happened is lots of you have pledged the higher amounts, allowing me to put most of the stretch goals in moulds together, with many of you getting them for free so I'll be able to send them out in "sets" with only a few of you adding on random lots (so far).

So, I've unlocked all of the finished specialist sets, so that all of the higher level backers will really be getting their money's worth with 9 free figures included in your reward, even those pledging at sergeant level getting the casualties pack free with your reward.

The rest of the goals in their WIP state have had their goal level reduced too so there's every chance that even more freebies will be heading your way.

As always, those that have pledged below Colonel level can still get your hands on the unlocked goals by adding £5 per specialist set that you wish to add to your pledge

Thanks to everyone involved, go out and spread the word, let's see what we can achieve in the next 7 days!

We've had a slew of pledges last night taking us well past the £8K stretch to unlock the Chaplain and Medic and over the course of today we've nearly reached the next goal! This brings the total to 11 free figures to the higher level pledgers.

These figures are works in progress, I'll keep you up to date with their completion as and when I get them finished (I still work as a full time commission sculptor).

If things carry on course you'll be seeing another goal unlocked by this time tomorrow.

Thanks so much everyone.

Hi everyone, I've put together a rifle and harpoon gun sprue as requested (obviously these are photoshop mock-ups) as add ons. Just treat them the same as a head sprue add on, and let me know that it's what you want on the survey after the campaign.

I'm sure these will be a real boon to all of you converters out there, especially the harpoon guns. Either use them in conjunction with the bodies add on or chop and change the barrels of your troops to make some real undersea fighters!

Over £8.5K now and half way to £9K!

Image
Again, these are work in progress figures so I'll keep you up to date as to their progress.

Thanks everyone, keep the pledges rolling in at this rate and we'll soon have a General to add to the ranks.

Well, here we are. All done, all goals funded with many freebies headed your way in the coming couple of months! No more stretch goals will be announced but as said elsewhere, I'm looking into putting a few thank you bits together to go with your rewards. Maybe stickers or prints or similar on top of your minis. All of you pledging at Colonel level or higher will be now getting 14 free figures!

Again the general is a work in progress sculpt, a few decisions need to be made regarding his final appearance but he's in the bag

Image
If all backers could take a moment to review their pledges and add on anything else that they require it would be much appreciated. Anything else after the campaign ends will have to be sorted out via privately Paypal, the final amount given in the last couple of days will influence what I decide to add in to your pledge rewards.

Thanks again to everyone that's contributed so far and to those that may come on board in the final days.

Just a quick update today. Here are the last of the head variants, bar one last possible requested bearskin variant.

And here is the complete grid of all your choices.

Pay particular attention to no.40, the long neglected head from my initial promo shots of the British soldiers!

Glad you've funded this successfully.

If it wasn't for the fact that I've literally pissed away every spare penny on the CoC KS this month, I'd have put into this, so will have to pick up the bits I want when they go on general release.
