Title: Rockets and Werewolves
Post by: fred. on 04 December 2012, 05:37:02 PM
More random figure requests as we are looking at playing Kings of War in 10mm

Rockets - to build something like the GW Empire  Rocket launcher? There is an interesting code in the 19th C Austrians, but no photo. I can probably use an Organ gun as the base.

Werewolves?

The Austrian one is very small, only a box on the ground really, so wouldn't look very impressive in a Fantasy army!  If you've got some pics of the kind of thing you're looking for, we can see what we've got.

On the werewolves, they are on the requests list, but not high enough up to appear on any radar's yet.

This is the GW one

Its a bit more boxy than I was remembering, I was thinking of something with a couple of fans of rockets.

But the boxy version may be much easier to put together - using some brass tube as the rockets, with brass rod as the sticks. I'm not sure about the cones for the rocket heads?

Looks like you'd be looking at some kind of conversion on the Organ gun then from the Medievals.

But Leon, what about updating the Austrians on the basis of all the lovely photos I sent you.  I'll pay for the sculpting costs, honest!   But I really, really, NEED IT!   >:< >:< >:< >:<

We'll be getting them done, but no idea on timescales for that one!

Man, you are in the wrong part of the forum.

Hey Leon, any chance of casting up the fantasy range that is missing piccies.  Given the withdrawal of the evil monster GW from the specialist game it could be a good earner for you anyway with folks looking for alternatives.

It's on the To-Do list, along with a whole load of other stuff!  I might be sending a few off to get painted up as well.

We've already got someone I was planning to use to be honest.  If you've got some pics of your painting, we could maybe send you some as well?
