[Kickstarter] Greenskin Wars

It looks like the beloved Crooked Claw range is back, with a whole lot more Kevin Adams goodness added in! I particularly like the feral goblins that are new to the range:



Also, it sounds cool that there will be some armylists for the different green tribes to use with the Dragon Rampant ruleset. It has nicely passed the target goal, and has already unlocked a few stretch goals as well.  8)

The troll rock loader has been made available to go with his friend.  I really like the posing and dynamism of this big guy!








I think he is an improvement over the first troll, which was sculpted a year or so ago (but still looks nice)

I lack the cash alas.

As a sidenote does Kev ever sculpt Orcs ?

Yes... I know there are a few in the pipeline for this one.  Then there is this site, with close to 200 glorious orcs sculpted by Kev about 15 years ago:

They are pretty bulky/heavy which is why they are pricey, but they are gorgeous.  Some of those orc characters weigh close to 100g each (a goblin would probably weigh around 15g).

Not something I particularly need, but they're excellent looking.  Fits very well with the Oldhammer style too, so I can see some people jumping on something like this.

Its sad to hear that Crooked Claw is no more! I'd missed that news... :(

However it is good to see the gobbos available again! I just wish it wasn't as a kickstarter. I'm a big fan of paying money for things and receiving them while the enthusiasm for them is there... A few months later and I might be wanting to paint something else by then...

The other thing is, I'm a bit confused by this particular kickstarter as it seems to be, 'choose want you want, and pledge, and a few months later we will ask you want you wanted again, rather than the usual pledge this, choose this, get sent them... Or am I misinterpreting this?
