It looks quite daunting to me, but I suppose they are not much more complicated than an airfix kit, and I would guess they would teach me a thing or two about scratch building.

Maybe....

The Casspir is finished and in the store - FINALLY :)

Here are a few pics of the one I painted up for the "box art" as well as an older test model I painted up as a MegaCity 1 patrol wagon (which could also be an adeptus arbites transport I suppose)

I am painting up an ork version too - I will add it here as soon as it is done.

I'll definitely get at least one Ratel 90 for my PMC-in-progress (just ordered a Revell Hind for them) - it's an old favourite, and while the Gaso.line model is lovely, top quality resin is so expensive that it's a last resort. And I'll very likely get an Eland/AML - I have the FoA version, but you can never have too many armoured cars.

Now... how about an ERC-90?  :-* There are none on the market these days, alas, and with that giant telephone pole of a gun you might be able to entice the SciFi crowd into buying them. French & German vehicles in general are kind of an untapped market, I think - pretty much all you have is diecast (often fairly expensive or somewhat out-of-scale or both), Gaso.line level resin (very expensive) or a few plastic kits (cheap but often inaccurate - the Kitech Leo 2 has the wrong number of road wheels, and the turret is all squashed to fit on the shortened hull.) And you don't have to worry about infantry being available, since Eureka has French and Germans already, and I believe Empress plans Germans as well.

Thanks for the kind words. Attached are some pictures of the "orc" version of the casspir - that is, a basic casspir combined with the orc glyph pack.

I have also included some pictures of all the other LaserCutCard vehicles and their "orc" versions.

We are considering doing a range of Rhodesian vehicles next as well as a range of "technicals" and after that, all things are possible. ;)

Kind regards

Shame to see all of that lasercut goodness go to waste on some Orks.  :-X

I'd say you could easily roll with the light armored/truck stuff you're doing.  There seems to be a huge lack of market for 28mm vehicles, and what we do get tends to be MBT's...which happen to be mostly useless at 28mm scale (they just power through the games).



Modern or Cold War Urals...perhaps a Unimog of sorts?



The ubiquitous Unimog (mid-90's were pretty squared off)



Some of the older Russian BTR's?

The Israeli RBY-MkI also has a similar look to the older BTRs, whilst still having that simple boxy look. I'd definitely be interested in some Russian style vehicles though (with the sci-fi elements you've been including in your other vehicles).



How long does shipping usually take for orders to the UK? I'm considering buying a few things for my Fallout stuff. ...That is, unless you have anything coming out soon, otherwise I'll put the order off for a bit.  ;)
