Title: (Kickstarter) Whitehorn Miniatures/Krakon Games general sculpting & release log
Post by: Whitehorn on November 24, 2020, 01:43:31 PM
Some 6 years ago I decided to have a crack at running my own little company and putting my sculpts into production.

The little company is still little, but the ranges have grown and I continue to expand on them. I only work on it one day a week, but it's both a creative outlet for me and a little extra funds to pay for itself and the occasional fancy business card.

I've made over 300 models now, not all for my own company, but the vast majority sit under the KG banner. I'm always planning far more than I have time to create, but it's healthy to delve into different ideas.

With releases being somewhat chaotic and frequent, I thought I'd start up a general log of what I'm making. A place to collate all my finished sculpts and the occasional preview.

Here's a few newish releases from different ranges to begin.

Have to get that Land Shark as a environmental hazard for Gorkamorka!

Quite a fitting environment! Don't forget he has 3 different head choices (and 8 tails)

I really like your Fomorians. The Wayfarer in particular  I'll put them on my shopping list

Your stuff is so cool man, had tons of fun painting them (you know, the yellow balls ;)). I'm thinking of a Mykeling order soon, the idea of a Fungus faction really appeals to me.

Thank you for the kinds words.

There's going to be more Mykelings very soon and the Fomorians will be something I expand on indefinitely I would imagine. Lots more to explore.

Speaking of both, here's some more models:

I play in 15mm, these are some great dragons for that scale.

I like fluidity in the scale of my monsters!

The latest KS is up.

It's sure to expand with stretch goals very quickly.

I've added the kickstarter term to the thread so people know there is one live as otherwise they might not pick up on it from the main topic headings.

Good luck with it.

Any planned return to Stargrind?   :D

These Fomorians are fantastic and I'm thinking I must have a unit for Oathmark. How do they compare to a 28mm 'man' sized model? Are these larger like Trolls or about man-sizes like the older Heroquest fimir?

I actually have a few different sizes. The raiders are all on 40mm bases, designed to sit alongside the Bibby sculpts. I do skirmishers and sentries, which are more suitable for Heroquest and are something I am hoping to expand on next year.

Thanks Elk! I appreciate it.

February will be the next big Stargrind project. I'm working on new drones, new angels, big Vespidae warriors, more doom-like monsters. It may end up being 2-3 small projects.

The Fomorians are excellent figures. As stated above there are a few different sizes with the raiders being impressively large, ogre-sized figures. They size up nicely with my Oldhammer stuff.

So all of these are the "Raiders" and are suitably sized for ogres and trolls?

Well, I admire these sculpts but don't have a lot of need for fantasy stuff at this scale. I'll be in for Star Grind though. I could use more Angels to supplement the last batch.
