Some nice sculptss there, however, I happen to notice some tiny fibres where mould lines would be on the woman. Are these "hard" resin or that ghastly material used for Sedition Wars minis?

Damn, I really like that robot thingie.

Also, your vehicle painting technique is absolutely eerie. That six-wheel transport looks totally unreal - it's hard to believe someone could achieve such a subtle effect on a piece of resin.

Hard resin. I emphasised in the post on my blog and here (underlined) that these are 'prototype' miniatures and as such aren't perfect. These were cast very quickly before clean-up on the 3D print miniatures was complete. Expect much higher quality on the finished product.

I have a few minis from Anvil Industry.  They're all hard resin and they come with almost no mould lines or flash.  They're beautiful figures and easy to work with.

Looking forward to what you do with these Dwartist!
