30mm Greatcoats Special Character

With the greatcoats coming to completion, I thought I'd take a moment to reveal a related project.  This is a special character for the Greatcoats, his name is Major Hammerfaust...


The idea behind these special characters is simple, release something with some personality.  I also hope these will serve as a way for us to reach out to the painters in the world and give them something cool to work with.

The Major will be cast in resin.

Harook Update

Just received pics for the first Harook sculpt.  I worked very closely with Pedro to make sure we got the best result and he has delivered a great figure.  Now that the first pose is completed, Mr. Navaro can move forward at a faster pace on the rest.  I won't go so far as to put a date on it yet but I am hoping it will be soon.

Sculptors Wanted

In an effort to keep up with some of the projects we are planning, we're putting out a call to all sculptors who are looking for some freelance work.  There are 2 major areas of subject matter, 30mm Sci-Fi and 15mm Sci-Fi.

If you're interested, please send us an email with your contact information and your experience as well as a link to a viewable portfolio.  We would like to hear from as many people as possible so we can have a working list to pull from as projects progress.

Progress Report 8/10/11

Quick shout out to Dropship Horizon for the honor of appearing on their blog.  I am discovering the passion of  the 15mm community and it really gets the creative juices flowing.  There are lots of good discussion to be had over on the TMP Sci Fi 15mm board.

I just finished with the newsletter signup page.  It's up on the link bar, in case you didn't already see it.  Between that, facebook, and the blog, you should now have access to our updates, 24/7. 

Things are moving along quite nicely.  30mm Greatcoats news is coming any day now and the 15mm Harook are picking up steam as the sculpting continues.  If you have an idea on how to make these lines better or any ideas about what should come next, send us an email and voice your opinion.  Opinions are important and they can certainly sway the direction of a line one way or the other so tell us what you think.

New 15mm Line of Sci Fi Minis

Mad Robot Miniatures is happy to announce it's first line of 15mm miniatures...The Harook.  Designed around a bird-like alien race, our first offering in this line will be a 10 figure squad that includes 10 unique poses, including a leader.  We have plans to follow up rather quickly with command, heavy weapons, some assault variations, and a dropship.

The master sculpts are being done by "Mr. Bug Man" himself...Pedro Navaro.  We look forward to this exciting foray into 15mm and we are grateful to all who shared their opinions with us while we came to a decision about what direction to take.

Here's a working concept...
