Reached goal in 4 days, thank you for your support guys, that is a record for me. And still no pictures, but trust me I am harassing him every day, and he has never let me down. As usual will try and post day after the kickstart finishes, so they may arrive in far flung places in time for December 25th.
Whats next ??? don't know yet

As you mentioned orcs on steeds, maybe boars that are not stupid looking?
And are you still pondering goblins ,if you done goblins old style like the orcs,I reckon they would sell,I'd buy them.
The fact is your producing old style miniatures at below secondhand/ebay prices in metal ,no stripping ,no damage,they can be painted straight away.
And the style is a hit ,with those of us that can remember the 80/90s miniatures,
Not cartoony plastered in spikes and skullz.
Just don't cut your profits short,as I for one would miss your products. :)

Thankyou for the compliments, Still not sure about type of mount for Orcs, still like the idea of Prehistoric Beardog. Goblins are going to be soon, with those I am thinking a bit different ie not comic faces like new GW, I am thinking a cross between LOTR and GW, still small but more aggressive looking.
First of my Dwarfs should be ready to show in about 2 weeks

Seconded - even if it does show my age. Beardogs sound more interesting than boars, and fit nicely with the idea of wargs/giant wolves anyway.

Keep up the good work, its appreciated and I am sure the audience and customer numbers will grow, as will the interest in your ranges. Its actually got me finishing painting stuff for the first time in ages!!

Although you do keep swallowing all my hobby money, every month  :D
