I have been working on a project with Craig and Charles of IHMN and Russ and Duncan of Elemental Games to develop 28mm steam horses and riders for game such as IHMN, EotD and WWE.

The riders and horses will be seperate but are shown here as final first renders waiting for first test prints.





The Kickstarter campaign will initially be for horses in 2 poses with 3 heads and 5 riders. with stretch goals to include cavalry, Sioux Indians and hopefully more. They are designed to fit in with other 28mm figures suitable for the above games.

I am forming a new company to commission these figures called Copper Mine Miniatures and if this first Kickstarter is a success I plan on expanding the range. I have already set up a basic website and Facebook page to keep you updated. If it is okay I will also update this thread from time to time with major events only to avoid spam.

Regards
Richard

Hi Richard, good luck with this venture. :)

 If its ok with you I will move this to the main VSF board where it will probably get more exposure. :)

This project is for mounted figures only I am afraid as there is plenty of dismounted figures about and I saw a potential gap in the market for mounted VSF figures.

Nice!

Might I put in a vote for some Steampunk Household Cavalry riders?

I'm down for the horses, don't really need the riders but I need more steam horses. The Mage Knight ones are ok but some variety would be nice.
I am looking for the following Deadlands minis:  Shotgun Thug, Lost Soul, Cleaners, Railroad Workers & Feral Dead. If you have any of these minis, or if you are one, please send me a PM.
