Yesterday I finished painting these Planet of the Apes style conversions.

They use pieces from the Oathmark Human Cavalry and Frostgrave plastic kits combined with metal Ape Heads.

We had so much interest in the Ape conversions that we did as part of our Shuttles & Spacers project that we are working on a complete Ape based release that will include male & female apes, soldiers and civilians, Gorillas, Chimps & Orangutans armed with rifles as well as medieval and sci-fi weaponry. The project is still a work in progress. Lots more photos and details at:

All of those things are possible, if there is enough support.
If you'd like it you need to register your interest @ https://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/epages/950003459.sf/en_GB/?ViewAction=ViewNewsletter&ObjectPath=/Shops/950003459 (https://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/epages/950003459.sf/en_GB/?ViewAction=ViewNewsletter&ObjectPath=/Shops/950003459)

Just spoken to sculptor, who is keen to do wagon, cavalry, personalities, apes on motor bikes and some buildings... all dependent on level of interest from gamers. When we get 100 gamers registering an interest we'll launch what we've got (which is a lot), and then see how we go adding these extra ideas as stretch goals.
