We were launching them in December but we had a family crisis and had to use the start up money to fix our house so I am trying Indiegogo out.

I don't want to sound harsh but I noticed that there is no guarantee of delivery of the "perks". I'd love to support your project but I would need a guarantee that I would receive the miniatures.

Could you give such a guarantee?

Darrell.

Lovely dynamic figures. I hope you can get them into production, and that they do well for you.
Who is the sculptor?

Darrrell, I can guarantee that all those who contribute will get their perks.

To all, thanks for the compliment and well wishes.

Great, I'll donate some money to the cause then. Sorry if I seemed a bit overcautious earlier.

Darrell, I understand I was leery myself of even doing a fundraiser. I just didn't want to see my dream die.

Think you may be right Karl... They do have that dynamic eBob look...

But perhaps it's a secret  :)

Ah, that means that they may be quite slender and small then(?).... Hmmmm.....

I can assure you they are not eBob. My sculptor, Leandro Ventic also sculpts for Indus Miniatures.

Those are very nice looking greens. Wish you success and look forward to seeing your company expand.

Hope it wasnt seen as an inslt as ebob is a cracking sculptor, here was the reason I thought it may have been his

Ah, so Ian Mountain then? I used to play WHFB in his shop when he was the manager of GW in Middlesbrough!  :D

I did not even know he was doing them, he is an amazing sculptor and I wanted to clarify that they were not his work.

It looks similar to eBob's as they both appear to be based on Angus McBrides illustration on the cover of Celtic Warriors 400BC - 1600AD.
I think they look fantastic, but sadly i've done my crowdfunding pledge for the month already :(
Hopefully they are available to buy after that

I have pledged.

Unfortunately I think $4k is very optimistic when the largest group on offer is only $25 :(

I hope it does fly as the sculpts look very good

I have shared on facebook, posted on my blog and on the Society of Ancients forum to help push this.

TMP might be another option

I kicked 25 into the bucket. I hope you get what you are aiming for.  :)

I understand about the perks, but I wanted something I could manage. I want there to little to no issue with getting them out to everyone.

Thanks to all of you who have chipped in!
