Primeval Abyssian - WIP eldritch/extra-dimensional wargame

[Hoser]

Any news to report?

[TheBlueShoggoth]

I took a much needed break from things and worked mostly on my music (I make industrial and dark electronic stuff : https://ionplasmaincineration.bandcamp.com/ )

I decided to finally bite the bullet and learn a CAD program and this is the result :


Due to the high cost of getting stuff 3d printed, ill have to do a few at a time but I will be going through Zealot Miniatures for the prints. I'll probably get them cast up in metal afterwards. The reason I'll be going with metal is because the strength of metal will aid the thin/wirey nature of the models, but it will also make it easy to pose them - of course I'd kill to have hard plastic sprues but sadly that's unfeasable for a hobbyist like myself. I'll probably do small production runs, just so I have enough for myself - but not sure if I will sell the rest, keep them, give them to friends or what yet. One things for sure though - I will keep this as a labour of love first and foremost. I am toying with the idea of selling "battleforce" type sets though. I'll come back here when I have the prints to show.

Until then, you can read the backround on this new faction here :

Nice stuff! Even if they are symmetric

I would definitely like to reserve a place in the front of the queue if any of the extra ones do go for sale.

[von Lucky]

Yeah, pretty impressive results.

I think getting them done in metal (and resin for the bodies) will aid in posing and to some degree cost.

[Hoser]

Very nice designs. I also would like to get in line for any you decide to sell.

[TheBlueShoggoth]

Thanks ppl!

Still waiting for the photos of the prints, The prints I've ordered are the basic Ligiea + weapon, and Queen Aphrodite x2, and 1 weapon. For the 5 prints, it cost me about £228. So damn expensive haha.

heres some more CAD images anyhow :


Each of these vehicles will cost about £128 each, so again very expensive. I'll have to do it all in small batches every other month or so, so I can afford it.

Some photos of the prints.

[von Lucky]

Wow. They look even better "in the flesh".

[TheBlueShoggoth]

Got my Queen Aphrodite and her staff weapon in the post today :





and here is a scale shot - allthough take in mind Queen Aphrodite is taller than the rest of her kind :

[TheBlueShoggoth]

The Estelorians of course need an enemy to fight, so here is what will be the 2nd faction :



the vehicle is not yet finished

[tnjrp]

Great stuff!

Shame it just doesn't seem to become feasible to get them commercially produced

[TheBlueShoggoth]

ill probably try to sell the excess stock to gauge interest but I'm being realistic that I probably wont be able to even break even. Would love to do it as a job though, but reality...

Finished the basic infantry for the Calixyren Syndicate! I'll try to do an HQ and Elite infantry next. Then maybe a vehicle.

Who are the Calixyren Syndicate
The Calixyren Syndicate are a civilization based on one of the Adrifells strange cosmic equations. In effect, the Calixyren are a culture of living sentient mathematical formulae. Due to them being such a core component of the Etherium, they are highly guarded, cautious, defensive and isolationist.

Working on a vehicle for the Calixyren :

The vehicles would need a bit more surface texture maybe but otherwise
