Kickstarter Round-Up – 16th September 2016

A bumper week for new Kickstarter projects this week, so much so that I’ve had to spli them down into sub-categories for this week!

Miniatures

Kev White does Matt Dixon

Hasslefree Miniatures have a KS project, which is funding a new project – Kev White is sculpting miniatures based upon the fantasy artwork of Matt Dixon, who has produced a series of female ‘pin-up’ illustrations. Each picture will inspire three different miniatures – the first based on the artwork, the second being a ‘skyclad’ version of the miniature, and the third being dressed in garb suitable for winter (and thus a certain Frost-based skirmish game?)

Funding for this has gone mad, having currently exceeded it’s £4,000 funding goal by over 900%, and it still has 16 days to run! It finishes on October 2nd 2016.

Advanced Song of Blades and Heroes: Axe & Brimstone

Axe and Brimstone is new expansion for Advanced Song of Blades and Heroes. The project is funding a new campaign book for these rules, plus two new warbands – Possessed Dwarfs and Halflings. Certain pledges also include a 3′ x 3′ terrain mat.

The project is over 100% funded, and is due to finish on the 11th October 2016.

Turncoat Games WW2 CavalryTurncoat Games are designing a range of 28mm World War II Cavalry figures for the Russian and Japanese armies. These are planned to be produced in a mix of resin and metal, and have separate arms, legs and heads to give multi-pose figures.

This has a funding goal of £2.500 and is currently 60% funded. The project ends on the 12th October 2016.

War is Coming – Forest Goblins

Shieldwolf Miniatures are running a project to fund a new box of 28mm multi-part plastic Forest Goblins. A box will contain 25 miniatures.

Stonehaven’s Giants

Stonehaven Miniatures are funding a range of RPG characters with a difference…they are all giant races! (Trolls and Giants)

These are proving popular, and the project has reached almost 200% of it’s original $7.500 funding goal. It’s running until the 4th October 2016.

Masters of the Deep Wargame

Masters of the Deep is a Miniatures War Game based on the boardgame of the same name. The game will contain 55 plastic miniatures from four different factions – it certainly looks interesting!

The game has a funding goal of $15,000, and is around 65% funded at time of writing. The project finishes on the 15th October 2016

Halfling Wizards & Apprentices

Following their last successful Kickstarter, Midlam Miniatures are back with a new project to create more Wizard sculpts – this time of Halflings.

Klip’N Play 28mm Scenery

Massive 28mm Zeppelin Model

Finally, if your 28mm Pulp/Steampunk/WW1 game demands a big playing area, how about 73 inch long Zeppelin?

Better hurry though, as according to the project, there are only three more available, although at $350 a time, this might be something of a luxury purchase!

Accessories
