It really seems like the physical production side of this has been largely swept aside as something that doesn't need thinking about.
I suppose this technically is what kickstater should be used for - a big expensive project with risks involved - but I'd rather spend my money when I have some idea what I'm paying for. I have no idea whether it could work, but I'm not exactly convinced that it will.
Not saying you are wrong, but do we know they don't know what they're doing?It might be their first time as a company, but do we know they do not have someone on board, or at least consulting people who do know what needs to be done?Haven't looked very deeply into it, but I can't say, one way or the other, at this point.
@TurboCooler - Is it possible to elaborate more. Would not the molds for the PVC and ABS need metal molds, are you saying that these can be made via the masters? ---Masters are what's needed to make molds. Metal, plastic or resin. We don't need metal molds to make the plastic ones. - There is no rework that will be required? --- Maybe a bit but not that much. -For example, would not the plastic molds need deeper or bolder lines to compensate for the shrinking of the material which would be much more than metal? --- Not really no. As for Alkemy, the same masters were used to produce Plastic minis, the same in resin and even some metal samples. Not an issue at all.
Good work, nic-e. I'm not seeing a scam, but "Maybe a bit but not that much"?? Can you can have "maybe a bit" of a train wreck? Who's in for a pound?
Sadly, as a consequence of all this the excellent Cadwallon were hit with a C&D notice to end production and sales of the actual metal Rackham figures and the game that they were developing.
