As promised last month, we have launched a Kickstarter project to produce a range of WW1 French Halflings to match our WW1 German Goblins:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1979146095/black-hat-miniatures-ww1-french-halflings

The initial project is to raise the funds for producing a 9 strong squad of 5 riflemen, 1 sergeant, 1 officer and 2 LMG team members, after that there are stretch goals to add HMG, Mortars, troops in Adrian helmet, etc.

These are the riflemen:

Everyone backing from the £28 level get an extra French Halfling General:

I am hoping we can get a full range of out this Kickstarter faster than I could produce it normally.

Many thanks

Mike

I'm in! …or rather I will be as soon as I buy an other prepaid credit card (I'm looking forward the day Kickstarter will take Paypal!

)

Best of luck with this, Mike.

will have to think seriously about this one, best of luck! the minis look ace, hope you'll manage to make a couple of adrian helmets

I went for it straight away! I would have preferred Adrian Helmets, but it's no big deal, hopefully, with enough backers, that will become a reality!

I wish all the best for this project.

I like the fact you can choose the gobbos you already have as part of the KS. Good to see you put a realistic figure in regards to the money you are after.

I will echo the pity KS does not take Pay Pal or I would of jumped on the 2 squad deal.

It is always a difficult choice between KS and Indiegogo but KS seems to have a bigger reach.

Here are a couple of closeups showing the extra provisions a halfling needs!

! Those are really nice touches!

I'm so jealous of Whiffwaff, I'd love to sculpt a range like this one.

I have just updated the Kickstarter with a picture of the Kickstarter exclusive French General painted by Shakespeare Studio who are providing the painting for our painted squads reward levels.

More updates to follow over the next few weeks.

Looks very interesting, Mike. Really got a soft spot for these fantasized WWWI's. Usually stays away from these crowd-funding things, but might be willing to make (another) exception

I have updated the Kickstarter page with more information on how to add our existing Goblin packs to your pledge if you want to...

Also we have a painted example of the squad officer:

thanks

Absoloutely lovely models Mike. As I said before, I can't wait to get mine.

I really hope the Adrian Helmet ones come out, they could be painted Horizon Blue for WW1 style or Khaki for WW2 style...

We are now over 50% of the way to reaching the target for the first squad.
