Working but can’t show you anything!

Hello Everyone,

well here’s the Kickstarter latest, things are happening although we’ve been very quiet, earlier this week we posted the masters (all insured) to Griffin Moulds for moulding and casting. All the surveys have been returned and checked, the amount of sets required have been calculated using ye olde five bar gate method of counting and the casting order has been sent in. So now there’s not much to do apart from wait, I was told the mould making and castings would take about 5 weeks, so we should hear something in the beginning of June.

Bob has been busy working on a private commission, so can’t show any pictures for that, but he has also been making a lady scrunt for a private commission and once we have permission to show it from the prospective owner I will get some pictures of it on here for you to see

cheers Jackie

Salute 2015

Very cool spaceship

A loft full of lead

Yesterday was the Salute wargames show at the Excel in London and I went with a few wargaming buddies to spend some cash and see what is new in the world of toy soldiers.

There was not a great deal on my shopping list, but it is always good to be tempted by something new. It is a big show and there is always plenty to see and many ways to empty ones wallet. My first stop was at Black Scorpion to pick up some Navy Marines, more ship crew and a copy of the Cutlass rule book.

I then found a great looking games table with a massive sea and land game in progress with some great looking ships.
All of these ships were made from wood with plenty of detail, puts my Playmobil conversions to shame.
This guy must have been more than seven feet tall.

Scrunt name generator debacle

We have just been in fits of laughter after trying to develop a Scrunt name generator for a Kickstarter reward. I wouldn’t have thought it so difficult but ours is truely awful, I worked out a multiple choice and assigned elements ect to the answer, so when I asked Bob to take the quiz, this is the name it generated Dwalin Owl Silver Oak, pretty bad I tweaked it a bit and James was slightly better he got Ori Stone Heart. I think we’d better stick to making miniatures lol
