« on: November 22, 2016, 06:05:07 PM »
Couldn't see a thread about this. Might be if interest!   Just three hours to go on AW miniatures Kickstarter funding a set of European missionaries miniatures, that apparently could , with add on options for French, British and Indian packs.

An update on this project.  Not sure if anyone else backed it in the end!  I picked up my package today,  bit of a shock as I'd not been paying attention to when it was due and the KS didnt finish that long ago!

I wasn't sure what the figures would be like as I've never tried AW miniatures before but the missionaries (the aim of the project)  are nice ambiguous models that will work in many different historical settings up until the 19th century I would think, wearing cassocks and sandals with one portly guy holding a Bible and cross.  I got a pack of French Regulars as my extra and was pleased to see them well detailed (excellent faces)  and size wise should fit in well with my existing Galloping Major stuff. 

Overall very impressed, AW certainly seem  worth checking out.  I'll try and upload some pics.

I look forward to seeing them! As a rule, I don't back kickstarters. I would rather wait and see what they look like in lead, resin, or whatever. I figure that, once produced, people will sell them.

These seem to have been made by AW Miniatures ...

http://awminiatures.co.uk/

Couldn't locate if the missionaries were being sold on that site or not, anybody know if I'm missing them?
