MASTER MOLD THREE...In The Mail This Week!

I have a few nice models in route to Iron Wind this week. All of my Trooper & Cavalry Bases, some secrete projects (LOL...Whoow!) most of these are the 3D Sculptures I have had done in the last year.

This Master Mold is going out to take care of the bulk of my plastic toys. I have a lot of my Traditional Sculpture almost ready to be Mastered too. I am going to send them off soon too, that will be Master Mold Four.

NON COM BIONOID CAPTIVE RELEASED!

The first Non-Combatant Captive model is in The TOMORROW BLACK Shop this week.

This model represents a typical Bionoid Techer. She is wearing a Tech Body Seal, that has been damaged by her captors. The model is geared in a back braced harness, collar, and gag. 

This model is primarily intended for use in Rescue Missions, and as cute adult themed eye candy for populating terrain features. The Bionoid Techer is 18MM to the top of her head, which represents a 6' figure in my Miniature Range.

The Original Sculpture.

MARKER BASES RELEASED!

The Marker Bases are in The TOMORROW BLACK Shop this week.

These cute little 11MM bases are the same bases that I used for The MURG Flies, but I always intended to use them as Marker Bases too, and now they are here in all of their terrifying glory! They are designed to be used as small Game Token - Flag Stands, to easily mount any number of small icons and to track locations of in game items and effects. 

Each base is kind of it's own Icon already. The Skull and The Dead Kid can both be used for many obvious reasons such as: Wounds, Mine Fields, Traps, and so forth. I like to use The Pipe to mark Secrete Items in games.

SIX MONTH COUNTDOWN BEGINS...

Today is the first day of the six month countdown of my personal deadline of getting ready for The Autumn Holiday.

 

I will have complete starter sets in production for six of The Primary Factions of TOMORROW BLACK by October.

MURG IMP SWARM Re-released!

The MURG Imps Swarm is in The TOMORROW BLACK Shop this week.

Now you can have another Swarm Unit to tie up your opponents in Martial Combat. I use to love to do that in my 40K daze...way back when.

Joseph

GRIZZOUGHT SINGLE Re-released!

The Grizzought Single is in The TOMORROW BLACK Shop this week.

Say Rod, how was The Cold Wars Convention trip?

Joseph

MURG FLIES SWARM Re-released!

The MURG Flies Swarm Packs are now in The TOMORROW BLACK Shop at HIGHLANDER STUDIOS.

I still rank these little critters high among the works I did back in 2011, they are just to disgustingly cute not to love.

BATTLE MINIATURES EMPORIUM IS NOW REOPEN!

Battle Miniatures Emporium is now reopen at Highlander Studios on January 13th 2013. Many of my friends and  business associates felt that it would be a good move to join forces with Highlander Studios for several reasons. Mr. Rodrick Campbell and I are friends with similar interest in 15MM Miniatures that support Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Horror Tabletop Gaming. Our operations are basically one man shows. We each work with many of the same production companies. Our 15MM products are compatible. It all makes good sense really.

I am currently working on many new 15MM Models to support my TOMORROW BLACK Product Range, but for now, to get the shop open, I am offering some of my early works, which are internationally available for the first time.

Visit The Tomorrow Black Page at Highlander Studios.

2013 WILL BE A GOOD YEAR!

THE NUMBER 13 REPRESENTS BALANCE, CLARITY, AND PURITY. There are many other meanings and myths associated with thirteen of course , but the primary understanding of this numeral is all good babes.

I am really going to get TOMORROW BLACK going this year . I intend to release about 160 models for the range, and publish a decent version of the rules as a PDF by October.

Product announcements will be published here on the 13th of each month.

Life is what you make of it my Brothers...and speaking only for myself, I am done with being a lazy fuck up.

Now is the time. 

THIS Mother Fucking Year.

Countdown To 2013: MY YEAR.

I  had several challenges in 2012 that needed to be dealt with. The primary concerns for me to advance my projects in 2013 were hiring out some Digital Sculptures, and securing a better approach to Production Casting. I have both taken care of now. 

I think I just might be able to get something done in 2013.
YUP...

Countdown To 2013: LEGION

Brothers, I now have a LEGION...of Body Blanks. 

Pictured in this article are about 300 perfect Master Castings, ranging in size from 30MM to 9MM, measured  from the base to the crown. I also have another 190 male and female Body Blank Parts, which I have not shown because there is nothing to see yet, but little piles of Bodies, Heads, and limbs.

To my Brothers out there who have wondered if I would ever really get all of the models done that I have talked about: the answer is yes. This was $390 well spent.

All I have to do now is play Dress-up-Baby-Dolls with some serious moxie! 

And here we are a week from October...Oh how sweet it is! Toxic Dead? YES!

"With just a touch of my burning hand,
I'm gonna live my life to to destroy your world!
Prime directive, exterminate, The whole fuckin' race!

All I wanted to say, And all I gotta do.
Who'd I do this for, Hey, me or you? "

Danzig

Thanks to Iron Wind Metals; to Mike Noe for keeping the money right for my budget, and to Stu for doing such a good job on the Molding and Master Casting!

2013 is going to be my year.

Joseph

Countdown To 2013...

Hail Brothers! I am closing The Battle Miniatures Emporium Website this week. I am taking over the hands on development of the site and redesigning the layout from the ground up. The new BME site will open in 2013.

I have also finished up my little Summer Campaign this week, in which I explored the interesting new (to me) realm of Digital Sculpture. All of the first wave of TOMORROW BLACK Digital Sculptures  are in route to Iron Wind Metals for Mastering, in fact as I type this article they are half way to Ohio. 

When Battle Miniatures Emporium reopens in early 2013, you can expect SEVERAL new products, a Preview of The TOMORROW BLACK Game, and International Shipping provided to select countries.

As always Keep It Real, and Stay Cool!

NEW BLOOD

I have enlisted the talents of two very skilled young artist to help me with The TOMORROW  BLACK Production. I have had The World of TOMORROW BLACK in my life for about 15 years, and now that I have started to work on it in earnest, in my young 40's...lol...I have come to realize that if I am going to make my "Tolkien sized universe" successfully, I need some help. It was a matter of pride really, and I have swallowed mine. TOMORROW BLACK is a huge undertaking for one man, thus I have hired a Digital Sculptor and Digital/Traditional Artist to help me.

I will still be doing all of the detailed sculpting of course, but I am very slow, to speed up the process, I have decided to get some basic Body Blanks done. Here is a little peek at one of the Digitally Sculpted Males.

The new full color artwork of TOMORROW BLACK will be drawn in rough by me, then fully realized by my wonderfully talented new Digital/Traditional Painter. These new paintings  will be done later in the year, the piece featured here is a sample only, it is not a part of The TOMORROW BLACK Art that I will produce in 2013.

Now back to sculpting these Murghaste Warriors...

MONTHLY PROGRESS 2012

I have started the MONTHLY PROGRESS 2012 Page , let's see what happens...

I am really going to focus more on work this year. I had a goal of posting 13 Articles each month for the first year, and managed to pull it off...but there was less content than I would of liked.
This year WAR ART will contain Less Filler...and More Killer!

If it is a little quiet here it is because I am actually working, and not pissing around on the internet.

I have better things to do Brothers.

Keeping it REAL !

JOE'S Hunting Death Digger

Joe sent this to me a few days ago, and for some bizarre reason my email decided his mail was Spam, which is wacky because he is in my Contacts List. I am pleased to share with you Joe's Hunting Death Digger!

Joe I love this fun little scene! You can really see how big a Digger is!

I have to think good thoughts for the little warriors future...lol!

You are REAL Brother...and I thank you for that!

Grand Prize Closeup

First Place Prize

All Winners will be notified by email. I ask that each Winner verify that they received their prize with their order, by simply replying to the Winners Topic that I will post here at WAR ART on January 6th 2012.

To keep the chances of winning reasonably in your favor, I am limiting this promotion to only theses 100 products. I chose 13 of my favorite numbers from 1 to 100. The random factor comes into play determined simply by the order in which I receive each Payment Confirmation via Pay Pal. The winning numbers are 1 6 13 19 26 39 43 53 66 73 86 93 and 100. The specific type of prize will be determined by a little blind drawing. I have a jar set up with 1 Black, 1 Green, and 11 Red gem stones (the little glass counter beads some of us use as game markers), just for this Promotion. When a winning number comes up, I will draw a bead and we will see what happens...kinda fun.

The time limit for this contest begins from the moment I publish this article, and it will run until all 100 Products are sold out. If this happens in 1 order, 13 orders, or more, has no bearing, when everything is sold the contest ends immediately, or it may run until 12 Midnight Eastern Time on December 30th.

Finally, all winners of this Promotion will be eligible for a free membership in The BME Brotherhood. This gives you a regular 13% discount on all orders, and access to a number of additional benefits, all of which I will cover in a future article.

If you have already received a free model(s) from me with your recent order, you may still participate in this Promotion.

This Promotion is limited to Citizens of The United States. I will have another Promotion for my International Brothers when I begin accepting Global Orders.

Have a Happy Holiday & GOOD LUCK!

Starting The BME Brotherhood Gallery

Mr. Erik Myles has started this for us, by simply being the first to post his wonderfully characterful paint work on a DEATH DIGGER and a RATTLE WING. You did a great job Bro!

I look forward to adding the work of my other Internet Brothers to this Gallery...Joe & Jeff, get to work my friends!

I will have Super Steve, my all powerful Webmaster, set this new feature up at The BME Site this week.

Joseph

Thank You Brothers...I MADE $45!!!

LOOK OUT WORLD...I HAVE $45 IN MY PAY PAL BME ACCOUNT!!!

I delivered my first 2 orders today...LOL! Thank you Joe & Jeff!!

My little Post Girl smiled as soon as she saw me walking in, this time she just posed for me, because she knew the deal...lol...She is a sweetie. When she saw that I had my packages all ready to go with paid shipping labels...looking all legit and shit...she even giggled...I giggled back too.

I will be shipping via USPS Home Pickup Services from now on, but for the first two orders, well fuck yeah, I just had to go and do it myself and record this astounding, and monumental-a-muss event in His-tor-Eee...

Joseph

BATTLE MINIATURES EMPORIUM IS NOW OPEN!

THE EMPORIUM IS NOW OPEN FOR BUSINESS!

The site is pretty much a WORK IN PROGRESS, and will remain as such for the rest of my life, I think you all know what I mean My Brothers. I am always going to update it, change it, work to improve it...so on and forward ho!

The important goodies are up and working fine, so order some toys.

For my friends in other countries, I am not yet prepared to accept International Orders, because this is a Soft Opening, since I have only a few of my figures up for purchase. If you are a member of this little community, in other words: if you and I have a history, and I feel that I can trust you, I will personally process your order, just email me with your request and I will send you a Pay Pal Invoice.

For the last 3 months I have messed with this whole damn annoying website thingie, and I am happy that it is done...enough to open for a few of my friends. I am not going to go all over on line and post big big big deals...fuck that, it is open,  and the few people that I like, and that care, can finally buy the first handful of my work.

For a little more detail, see my Product Overview Article.

THERE WILL BE MORE.

LUCKY JOE'S BME POST

TOMORROW BLACK Product Overview

I am opening BATTLE MINIATURES EMPORIUM this week, and the first miniatures range I am releasing is TOMORROW BLACK. This product range is going to be a comprehensive world of Figures, Vehicles, and Terrain, based on my old TOMORROW'S PLAYGROUND RPG game, and my new TOMORROW BLACK Novels.

I am starting The TOMORROW BLACK Range with three packs and one single. 

Abominations Of Dark Science Collection 1 begins a series, a sampler pack if you will, of The Evil Monsters encountered in all regions and climates in The New World.

I am producing the Abomination Collections as a core starter for TOMORROW BLACK, and to offer hobbyist the opportunity to add some unique variety to their general Science Fiction and Horror gaming. I feel that these collections are equally useful to those of us who want to include Random Monster Encounters in our RPG Adventures, and for Wargamers who enjoy the extra detail and humor afforded by the use of Battlefield Event Charts which include Surprise Attacks by a variety of local hostiles.

All Abomination Collections will be comprised of six models including at least one Large, Medium (human sized), and Small creature, for the sake of esthetics and variety of use. I am offering these collections for the reasonable price of $9.60 each. Abominations Of Dark Science Collection 2 will likely include the first Scizz and Whurg models, as well as four models I have not yet shared with you. 

I am selling The Death Digger as the first of my Large Single Monsters, and a pack of three Rattle Wings, for $3.90 each. Both of these products are also located in The Abominations Of Dark Science Emporium.

Beast Of The Waste begins with The Murg Flies, which are the first of my Murghaste figures and are also a part of another Faction, that I am not ready to share with you fine people at this time.

The Murg Flies pack is comprised of 9 randomly assorted figures, including at least one or more of each breed, as well as six detailed bases chosen from the three styles. I am offering these collections for the very reasonable price of $3.60 each, because some of you may want a lot of them after-all, and they are so lovably tiny.

Well gang that is it for now.

This is just the beginning my Brothers...
