Those look really good. They remind me a little of a range proposed by Fly Trap Studios, but which never seems to have been released. What we really need now are some cartoon-style critters!

Thanks!
They are based on the illustartions in the Palaeo Diet rule book, so Orestis 'Orestix' Ermeides has to take credit for the inspiration.
If this set prove successful there are critturs and new hominids planned to expand the range.

The Kickstarter Campaign is now 'live' and can be found here:

I shall be making critturs if this campaign is successful enough to warrant it.
In the meantime I have been delving in my bits box/leadpile/trashstash etc to find stuff that will work well enough for now.

Here is the first offering, a cheap toy dinosaur, the Poundshopasaurus...

Thanks, chaps.
 :)


Here are a few more, small grazer types that I will considering to be like antelope.....




They are Okroi from Forge of Ice.
Wonderful delicate sculpts.

They come with panniers which will be very handy for future conversions for my sci-fi project too.
Result!
 :D

Thanks, Barry.

Here is a shot of Captain Mancave, also available during the campaign, posing with the rest of The Tribe....




...he was most displeased with being left out of the original line up and has communicated that well, in his own inimical style!

A couple more meals for the Cavefolk, this time in the guise of some larger Grazer types....



These are Grok from the Krakon Games Flora and Fauna KS. Lovely chunks of resin.
Again, these were speed painted using simple drybrushing and then washes.
 :)

And here they are about to be introduced to Mrs Spear....





The KS campaign has now Funded and can be found here:

I washed going to say "where are you finding all these great beasties?", but you've kindly told us! Great paint jobs on those mate, I really like them.

I have been delving through the pile of 'to-do' stuff for critturs that I think work well for this project.
Goes to prove that we must all have some kinds of critturs lurking about that would make a good meal for Cavefolk.
