Some of the models included in our Classic Movie Miniatures Episode Three Kick Starter which launches tomorrow morning. The campaign has a twin theme, Spy-Fi and cold places! We thought that a top agent would want a top ride. The 3D render is for our DB5 kit which is one of my favorite stretch goals in the campaign!

What scale is the car?

Chris Abbey · « **Reply #17 on:** June 28, 2019, 11:53:19 AM »

We have had it designed digitally, so initially it will be perfect match for 28mm figures, however if there is enough demand we could easily do in other scales as well.

Depends on how you define a perfect match, these are all for 28mm scale.

1/56, 1/48 and 1/43 (for me WW2, moderns and TWD:AOW).

OK, most likely 1/48 then.
We use a very talented and experienced designer. The 28mm DB5 will be a perfect match for the figures we use for this sort of gaming, i.e Pulp Figures, Crooked Dice, Classic Movie Miniatures, Artizan, Copplestone etc. So if it needs to be 1:47 or 1:49 to look right, that's what we would do. That is the beauty of digital design of masters.

Cool, I look forward to having it parked next to the Crooked Dice Land Rovers.

As a purist, I would suggest either 1/50 (Crooked Dice and Empress) or 1/48 (Tamiya, HLBSCo, Gringo's) rather than an in-between scale. As a gamer I am happy to mix both scales on the table as long as they are different vehicles.

Great news, we hit the stretch goal today for the Aston Martin DB5 model.
Any one that is interested, you can take just that model if you want.

Richard has been hard at work on the design of the Snow-Cat vehicle, which is very much inspired by the 'Tucker Snow-Cat' but as we do not want to infringe any copyrights has been re-branded 'Quad-Trax. While enhancing the model to make it more robust for gaming and to improve it's castability, Richard discovered that their was also a cargo carrying variant.

Both variants are available as part of the campaign

Just a quick update to let you know we have just passed the next stretch goal so work is underway to make a model of the crashed satellite camera that was the major plot point in 'Ice Station Zebra'

These join the items already available in the campaign, and we are of course hoping that a few more exciting cold climate items get added before the end of the campaign.

If you have not had a look at the campaign yet, you can find it at : https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/179272384/classic-movie-miniatures-episode-3-white-out

Just a quick update on the campaign.
The campaign has around 20 hours left to run, so if it is of any interest do pop across and take a look @ https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/179272384/classic-movie-miniatures-episode-3-white-out

As well as all the other stretch goals listed we have added Soviet Paras in Arctic Kit.

Here's an image of the first model that Mark has sculpted for us.

Last night we passed another stretch goal that added two extra 4 figure packs of miniatures. Soldiers - Firing and Soviet Para's firing. Both packs will contain an LMG / Loader team and standing and kneeling firing pose.

If anyone missed the Kickstarter campaign and is interested in any of models that were featured in it, we have just made everything available for late pledges on Gamefound. https://gamefound.com/projects/sally-4th/whiteout

Chris Abbey · « **Reply #29 on:** October 15, 2019, 12:53:32 PM »

Mark has just posted some photos of the last couple of packs that he has sculpted for 'Whiteout'

These are Soviet Paras in Arctic Kit Firing.

and US Troops in Arctic Kit Firing

I'm delighted with what Mark has sculpted for this project and can't wait to get some cast, painted and on the table.

We are leaving the late pledge manager on Gamefound open until the end of the month (31st October) for anyone who missed the Kickstarter.
