15mm Punic Wars Roman!
« on: January 09, 2015, 03:08:15 PM »
Well, I need to say a BIG thank you to all at West Wind Productions for sorting my War & Empire pledges out.  The minis are fantastic and I can not wait to get some paint onto the 500+ minis that I have!

The range is very good with all major troop types covered, the sculpts are very crisp, great detain and very little flash.

I'll post some pictures once I set some colour on them!

Glad you got your order and are happy with it, still got quite a wait for mine.  Feedback so far seems very positive.  Feel free to post pictures of your haul in bare lead just as a teaser for now  :P.

Exciting to hear details popping up. I eagerly await my order. I think this KS has single handedly put WW on the top of the 15mm ancients totem. HUGE high quality range.

Ok the first update, a large pile of lead!  Just over 500 figures awaiting the attention of blade and brush.

I did start on them just after taking the picture, beginning with the Valites.  Great minis, little flash and great detail and they take paint very well!

I was wondering how their new range would turn out. I like what I am seeing so far.

I took a bit of everything. I just love them so far. So easy to paint, lots of details, variety... they remind me of Old Glory, but with a  better sculpting and animation (ie no weird poses) :)
too many periods and games: Antiquity, fantasy, WW2, zombies, and VSF....

Nice start to an army, but for me getting 500 new figures in one go would be a nightmare!
I would know for certain that before i had the project half finished my enthusiasum would have moved on to my next project.
Good luck anyway.

They're turning out great.  I always admire people who can order a ton of figures and work through them consistently.  I find I get overwhelmed and have switched to a lot more smaller purchases made after I paint what I have.

I'm trying to figure out what ancients to do after my Sumerians are done.  This period is definitely tempting me.
