[KICKSTARTER] Interdimensional Bestiary DIVING SUITS ADDED
« on: September 12, 2014, 03:58:27 PM »
Hey guys, sorry I've been away so long.

Just a quick sneak peek montage to tantalise you all (that is if you haven't been following me on Facebook, for shame!).
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Meridian-Miniatures/278329682295664



This will be a short two week campaign to raise funds for the casting of a larger sized creature for my Steam & Aether setting along with a couple of accompanying character figures. I'll post a proper announcement shortly after the campaign "goes live" on Monday morning. If it goes well this will be the first of many gribbly beasties to populate your games!

Cheers!
Andrew

Looking forward to this.

Good luck Andrew, it' looks like a  very menacing looking monster. :)

Looking good for Lovecraftian gaming too...

The project is live and can be found here:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2004599158/interdimensional-bestiary

Just over a year ago, with the help of many generous backers, I successfully funded my "Steampunk Army" campaign to produce miniatures for my Steam & Aether game setting. Since then the backstory for my Victorian sci fi world has grown, unveiling a rich setting that demmands to be populated.





The first monster that I have chosen to create is this horrifically tentacled maritime mass, dubbed "Aequatherium Magnus", of the many concepts and sketches that I have compliled I felt that it was the most versatile in that it has plenty of scope for use outside of the Steam & Aether setting. I can imagine it being used in plenty of other sci fi/fantasy/mythos games.



Of course, in the Steam & Aether setting someone needs to step up to the challenge of defeating such a monster, each side needs it's steampunk monster hunters to take to the tabletop! Both of these 28mm scale miniatures are cast in high quality resin and are timed limited figures available for the KS campaign, only seeing general release one year from campaign end.

After the success of my custom pledge level on the the previous "Tooth & Sword" campaign I've decided to add the same to Of course, in the Steam & Aether setting someone needs to step up to the challenge of defeating such a monster, each side needs it's steampunk monster hunters to take to the tabletop!

After the success of the custom figure pledge level on my previous "tooth & Sword" campaign, I've decided to do the same here, see the rewards section and FAQs for detail.

Thanks to all  that decide to pledge on this more modest campaign, I'm only running it for two weeks so would appreciate you sharing it where ever you can.

Those are really nice.  Im in for a modest pledge :)

I will be hoping to end up with three or so spawn if possible too.  I have been looking for something just like that for my Rogue Trader/Deathworld Bestiary project.
