Title: [KICKSTARTER] Zero Agents - anime boardgame with beautifull miniatures
Post by: Onimusha on May 26, 2015, 03:46:19 PM
Sculpts are being done by sculptors from the amazing Kingdom Death kickstarter project, so unsurprisingly I am very excited about it.

This game is at least 37.8% breasts.

Have you ever seen the Kingdom Death pinups, as a long time fan of anime I can appreciate the mix between ecchi and the more decent clothed women. Zero Agents for me, has that balance nailed down very good.
The models from Kingdom Death are a new industry standard for 3d modelling IMHO, I am curious how the models from this KS will look in 3D.

Anyone seen the Kingdom Death minis in the flesh? How's the detail in their plastic?

Some time ago, they sold a test run of their wet nurse with the new plastic, I bought one and am very content with the overall product detailing.

Aren't the Kingdom Death minis a weird non-compatible scale, like 45mm?

These are 35mm, according to their KS page.

So each country has scantily clad females as their best 0-agents? Are they infiltrating a brothel?

They are lovely, but expensive. I'll see about them if they make it to retail. :)

Hmmm. They are Kingdom Death sculptors, but Sodapop plastic, so I guess that's a kind of restic?

KD minis had great detail and good sculpting.  I just can't get past the circus boobs.  My wife will probably want these though.

"Circus boobs" lol

Well, the gals do look like they are 35mm* scale, except for the boobies which are 45mm scale.

All the same, some of them might pass for civilians in a less, shall we say, special interest oriented scifi game environment. Not available separately tho and also see * below.

*) tho there appears to be some confusion about this since the KS page says "30-35mm"

They say "95 degree hard plastic", whatever than means exactly.

Also, that one render is about 10 heads high, which would imply the "original" is about 8 feet tall.

Sometimes you get a vibe from a game. This particular game gives me a vision of a lot of self-touching being involved while working on this project.

Whilst I could get over most of the "circus boobs" as artistic style...

Agent 002 Aries - what is she wearing, and how is that supposed to function in world with Newtonian physics? When sculptors add random flesh just for the cheeky underboob and then try to work out how to cover the rest, it just comes across as clumsy.

If there was a 'rep' or upvote system on LAF you'd be receiving some love from me.

On the subject of the vague miniature scale, they have an update now with some comparison shots. Can't say they help me that much but to itch his own, as they say.

So far we haven't seen any gameplay ( they said it will be shown soon), but the setting reminds me very much of some really cool anime series I've watched. I think you need to be an anime fan to appreciate this kind of miniature/boardgame with overly sexy and sometimes ecchi looking women, but if you belong in that category, you'd have one of few games in the genre out there.
They just announced the possibility to bigger resin verions of the sculpts for the collector/painters, depending on de 3D sculpts I might order a couple too.
