Egyptian/Hittite 28mm
« on: March 07, 2023, 01:25:36 PM »
New range added to my website, just 28mm at the moment but 15mm hopefully by next month. Supplied in resin, mixed by my fair hands, using rather expensive flexible resin mixed in the correct dose with the slightly less expensive hard resin. https://lancerminiatures.com/product-category/red-copper-miniatures/

Love it! 

I have been toying around with some Chariot Wars rules for a while now.  They are scale and mini agnostic, but I have been torn by the scale I should paint my own armies in.  I have not been happy with the 28mm chariots I have seen, but I find yours look the part. 

Decisions, decisions, decisions.

I've been hoping for another range to cover these.  Well done.

These look excellent - and just what I've been looking for for the Jackals RPG!

@Lancer - any chance of some Egyptian spearmen?  They'd be really useful as generic guards etc.

Very nice.  If only we could get them in Australia.

Great.

Any idea of their comparative size with Foundry etc?

Glad you like them guys, size wise they are 28mm foot to eye if that helps, I scaled them down so they mix in well with the rest of my armies. Egyptian spearmen no sorry, it isn't up to me what comes out next, but I can ask. Post to  Australia, no problem, got several customers their, but of course postage costs are what they are. Painting up a Hittite army for myself, for my favourite ruleset Impetus.

These are great!

Slightly cartoony-looking, judging by the pictures, but even so I'd be seriously tempted to get back into another Biblical project with these.

Wasn't there another thread recently where these same miniatures were being promoted as downloadable files for 3D printing?

That's all I can ask  :D

I'm very likely to invest in a few of these after next payday.

Yes Tikitang, I purchased the commercial licence, which allows me to make and sell the prints, unfortunately it doesn't allow me to convert them to metal, but them's the rules.

That's a shame! What's the reasoning behind that?

Tikitang, yes a shame, but its his range so I abide by his decision, to be fair the poses would cause some issues going into a mould, and weapons and some arms would need to be cast separate, not an ideal.

I see Samnites in 28mm metal.  Any more from that period in the pipe line?

Hello Ran the Cid, the Samnites were for a private project, once I have everything else finished I may go back to it, but dont hold your breath, sorry
