Hello!

On the 1st of September my Kestrophedrones and Gastraphetes Kickstarter will go live.
And there will also be a third unit: Queen Olympias and her merry band!
Here you can see a preview: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/707879967/1911163113?token=e6106175
I am currently painting some master figures so everyone can see what the figures will look like in metal. And of course I will do a comparison picture with other Macedonians and Greeks.
The name of the Kickstarter? Makedonian Miniatures

And here is the first stretchgoal  for the Kickstarter:
Queen Olympias, the mother of Alexander the Great. After  the death of her son she tried to take the power over the Macedonian kingdom. Now she is 55 years old and she want to take revenge on everyone that hurt her little boy.



I hope you are not disappointed that she was not sculpted "sexy", but I think she is much cooler this way.

And the Kickstarter will go Live tomorrow!

With less than 3 days to go the project is funded and Queen Olympias, the mother of Alexander the Great, is unlocked. And who knows, with a little luck the Mimallones (Dionysian priestess) will also be unlocked.

Darn, missed this. Is it possible to order the figures outside of the Kickstarter?

Yes, no problem. Just look at the Kickstarter page what you want. Send me a mail at bjorn_floderus@yahoo.se with your name, adress and what you want (and any questions). I will then send you an invoice on PayPal and you will get the stuff at the same time as the Kickstart backers.
