Good looking minis - I like the style.  I don't print, but I'd definitely consider some via Etsy in the future, etc.

These look great and would look good along Black Scorpion etc but, as with so many recent productions, these are STL's only and that means those of who don't have the cash or the confidence to enter the world of 3D printing are shut out.

I mean, shut out from a Kickstarter - but most of these companies will license these off to be printed by a variety of shops on Etsy, etc.  I occasionally buy STLs and send them to my buddies who have good printers and they send me copies, etc.

You can probably even message them to find out who they license out their STLs to (if they do so).

As @Elbow said there are printers out there who will do that for you and more people are selling 3d printed figures online as well. That said cash is not the issue really, it is the learning curve, but once over that there are lots of possibilities with 3d printing.

I got these on the Kickstarter and they print well, just need to scale at 90% to match other 28mm figures.

They look really good. If they are going to be offered on etsy, I might be tempted.

I jumped on 'em, even being sans printer (that is to say, "without printer") with the hope I'll be getting one next year sometime.

In the mean time, though I'd go the Etsy route, does anyone here print or know someone who does?  I'm in the US.  Only mentioning that because of shipping costs.

I'm tempted to try getting them printed at 30mm so I could use them as reasonably matching either my 28mm or my 32mm old west figures.

Thank you, that's what I was wondering, They are really nice looking figures but I would want them to mix in size-wise with my Brigade Games cowboys.
