(Kickstarter) Miniature Holders & Grips

Thinking this is pretty interesting.
It's a product to hold you mini's in different positions while painting and features a bar that minimises hand tremblings.

Anyone have any experiences with V1 or 2?

Spotted this too. Like the look of it but a little pricey for me. I'd be using it mostly for sculpting purposes I think.

I had them in my hands on a painting Meeting last weekend. Its awesome stuff! I know the people behind and they do a great job! The Quality of the upcoming holders is really good and its clearly to see that the inventer had taken in a lot of Brainwork to bring the last Versions with the new V3 to the Maximum of Useability. I´m in the Kickstarter with a Studiobundle and will replace my whole former Grip-Solutions with it.

Wait a year? Then I'll wait for retail. I'm done with Kickstarters taking a year to deliver.
But I am interested in these. For now I use large paint bottles with some putty on top as a holding grip. Works well, but something a bit more professional sounds good.

They will be available at PK-Pro after all KS Backer ones are delivered!
The first batches will be delivered in January. But they had bot expected the extremly sucsess of the KS that brought up the new pledge Levels with later delivery date.

I've decided to support this kickstarter. I think it's a great idea and have pledged at the £35.00 level.

You should be aware that the earlier version is already for sale via e-bay.

Thats a hard life without being happy all time long^^
You can easily adopt the standard Cork with a fitting Drill to the Basesize you prefer. The premade corks are done for 28mm Bases, but the standard Cork is a solid one that can be drilled in ;-)
