Yes, but you can click on them to embiggen them.

And they look great, really nicely done.  8)

If you are using Firefox, this could be a browser problem. Imageshack apparently doesn't like FF, at least in my case. Viewing it in IE shows the image in it's proper size :)

I recently found the old rule set I had for mini gaming this, if it is not copyrighted ( I think it was fan made and free) would you like a copy? (it's in an electronic format already)

To all personal......i can vouch for the quality of the work he's producing. I have several items of his hand and they are all of very good to excellent quality. He's an artizan and a very likeable lad. But i will sort that very soon as he'll be humping the boonies with a 50 pound ruck hunting Nathaniel Victor on the HCM trail. Apocalyps Now! Dutch style!!!!

after a long period with lots of personal issues i returned with a couple of new miniatures for my XCOM/Spacehulp 15mm project...

here are 3 civilians:

next batch of 3 will also be civilians.... need to have some different miniatures for my project....

thanks for looking,

That's great news, keep it up!

Though I have to ask, when do we will get to see a resin kit of the Overspawn?  ;D

Post by: markiemark on January 21, 2013, 12:57:51 PM
hahahahaahah that overspawn is a very very very large creature.... think i'll have to pass that.... but maybe in the future, i don't know....

thanks for your feedback...

first thing is that the first 30 miniatures will be released.... did have a talk (email) with the sculptor and things will go good.... next will also be some civilians... and after that some robots and a medical team with a wounded civilian..

If these sell well, you should consider having them scuplted in 28mm as well :)
Title: Re: 15mm XCOM / Spacehulk
Post by: markiemark on February 08, 2013, 08:15:22 AM
hahahaha yes, but first i need things going with the 15mm stuff...

great news, I have the first batch back from the caster.... in total 23 casts each... 1 for painting and keeping for myself, and the other 22 for selling... yes... i also need some funds to move further...
