Title: 28mm Multipart Rioters : Green Added 06/05
Post by: whiffwaff on March 17, 2014, 07:56:24 PM: A sneak peek of the first figure from a massive batch of 60 different bodies, 60 heads and 60 pairs of arms which are all interchangeable…

(http://i438.photobucket.com/albums/qq108/sculpting-pics/IMG_9350.jpg) (http://s438.photobucket.com/user/sculpting-pics/media/IMG_9350.jpg.html)

The plan is to give people an easy way to create mobs of unique figures with ease, and also to have figures which are painter friendly.

This figure is stuck together for the photos but the arms and head can be posed as required.

Will be in resin.

Cheers

Adam

I agree and want to know the answer as well!

Also how will they scale with Artizan, Hasslefree or Heresy?

Keep up the great work!

Thanks.

Ladies are planned, working on the base dollies now :)
Title: Re: 28mm Multipart Rioters
Post by: Too Bo Coo on March 18, 2014, 11:00:26 AM: I like this idea very much! And as SI alluded, this first guy at least, looks like he'd work great in a colder climate! I need this very much for variety!

Do you plan these as metal or resin? Hopefully the former :D
Title: Re: 28mm Multipart Rioters
Post by: v_lazy_dragon on March 18, 2014, 11:02:14 AM: The idea is great, and the first figure looks like he has got great potential for a wide range of settings!

Gotta have some 'improvised gas mask' heads.
The 'in' thing for your modern day rioter.

Post by: Stu on March 19, 2014, 03:50:17 AM: Football riots, bar brawls, gang wars, drunken students, out of control parties, Saturday night in most big cities - who does a good riot police range?
I'm adding burning cars to my build list.

Post by: pinstrpepete on March 19, 2014, 12:38:47 PM: These look great, would love to see some more photo's. I'm very interested.

Do you think they will scale well with Wargames Factory plastic survivors or the metal Skirmish Scavenge Survive range? They look ideal for kit bashing as well as being great by themselves.

Offensive Miniatures http://www.offensiveminiatures.com/catalogue.asp?RID=7&CID=3 (http://www.offensiveminiatures.com/catalogue.asp?RID=7&CID=3) have a good range of police (including mounted) as well as rioters.

Cheers

Title: Re: 28mm Multipart Rioters
Post by: v_lazy_dragon on March 19, 2014, 12:54:58 PM: They should scale well with the Scavenge Skirmish Survive figures - WhiffWhaff sculpted the vast majority of them too!
Title: Re: 28mm Multipart Rioters
Post by: whiffwaff on March 19, 2014, 01:23:53 PM: I'll get some scale shots up ASAP.

These along with a multipart riot police opposition (supported by the odd vehicle) will be ready May... Seems like ages but it's only a few weeks really.
Title: Re: 28mm Multipart Rioters
Post by: whiffwaff on March 19, 2014, 04:19:06 PM: Another day another figure…

Am installing all our new casting gear tomorrow so will hopefully be able to really ramp up production of these next week.

indeed- assuming the arms can be used in any combination, that would make 12,960,00 unique combinations- that is quite a riot! Might be excessive. Even 5 bodies, 5 heads and 5 pairs of arms would give 625 combinations.

Post by: whiffwaff on May 06, 2014, 10:36:10 PM: First set will probably be enough parts to make 20 unique figures. We're planning the moulds now though so it may change a little.

Sets of 20 means we can price really competitively.

Really wanted to get these out ourselves but other things must take priority at the moment.
