[Commercial] 28mm Soccer/Football Players!
(1/13) > >>
Watts:
Some of you may have seen my posts in the thread about the new Striker! football rules (or soccer if you are from my side of the pond). I though I would start a new thread instead of clogging up the other one with my shameful self-promotion.
Anyway, I am producing a set of 28mm football players and they are nearing completion. There are 5 player bodies, 1 goalkeeper body, 10 separate heads with various hairstyles, and a ball. They are digitally sculpted and will most likely be cast in metal (still a bit up in the air). At the moment I am working out details with the caster.
Here are a few pics of one of my test models and the poses (not all of the heads are shown). I am not sure what the price will be yet, but a team will include 11 models (10 players and a goalkeeper), and two head sprues (20 heads and 2 balls). Once things are firmed up a bit I will have more info about ordering. I may do a small Kickstarter to get things going as well.
Thanks for looking!

Those are very nice indeed! I could see myself buying a team. I can see an aftermarket opportunity producing decals. Club badges, numbers and sponsors' logos. You'll need a ref and a couple of managers.

They look very nice indeed, good luck with your project. I think it will be a flyer for you. :)

But you'd have to repaint them every season, and repaint the managers every six months ;)

Yeah, it's the curse of moderns multiplied by a factor of four. You've reminded me why I went away from them and back to historical armies. lol
Right, do bigger hair and shorter shorts, cos if I'm going to do history it's going to be classic Flamengo circa 1980-83 when God played for us and we were unbeatable.
