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!

HEROIC BLANK, BULLETS, AND TOXIC DEAD GEAR MASTER PRINTS Preview

I just got the word from my 3D Printer that my next set of Digital Models are in route. He sent a few pictures too. I will post better images of these models and component pieces when I get them Mastered in Metal.

The human male is my new Heroic Body Blank. This cock-diesel figure stands an appropriate 18MM's from toe to crown with a more robust general stature than the first series Body Blanks. I am thinking that for my Human Characters and Humanoid Monsters he is going to make my sculpting time very productive. The other models you have already seen here recently: they are the first four of six Chain Bullet Sets, the Toxic Dead Barrels and Toxic Icon Components.

Summer In The Waste...

Summer is here, and this time I am ready for it. Some of you know that I hate summer, but I purchased a new AC and Heavy Duty fan, and now my studio is nice and cool this season. Ha, Ha! 

I am about to send most of the new Digital Sculptures to Iron Wind for Mastering, so I am going to chill all summer and have fun working indoors with all of my neat new Body Blanks.

Summer In The Waste...it's not such a bad thing!

TOXIC DEAD ICONS COMPLETED SCULPTURES Preview

The Toxic Dead Icon has been completed, in it's Base Form. Now you guys know I am going to add a lot of fun details to this Digital Sculpture, when I get the Metal Masters in hand, like that cute 0.5MM Chain, with all manner of Flesh Trophies and Skin Scrolls, to make this look as horrifying as it should be.

There are two versions of this Digital Sculpture, one is 6MM in diameter and the other is 11MM, both of which are going to be used  throughout the Toxic Legions. The chain will of course be used for several other models too.

TOXIC DEAD BLACK BARREL COMPLETED SCULPTURE Preview

Brothers, another step towards building The Ultimate Sci-Horror Undead Army has been taken...

A Word On Design: Each Black Barrel is 12x8MM with the lid in place.The bottom of the lid has a neat beveled frame so that we can mount a plastic strip (That I will provide in each pack) to represent the glass window. I am going to sculpt a Toxic Dead Bust that we can mount in the top half of the Black Barrel, so that we can actually see what horror awaits us within these evil devices.
The Black Toxic Stalkers pack will consist of 6 Black Barrels: 3 sealed with the Window Glass and Toxic Bust, 3 open with a Black Toxic Stalker coming out of it's barrel, and 6 Black Toxic Stalkers on my standard Detailed Bases.

I am sending these to my Mold Maker in 3 weeks...THEY WILL BE READY FOR THIS OCTOBER.

Can you Brothers figure out what I am going to do with these?

 

Oh Yes...

Yes, yes, yes!

CHAIN BULLETS COMPLETED SCULPTURES Preview

The Bullets are done now, and I love them! The image here is a screen shot taken from Netfabb Studio. You can not see the models as clearly as I would like, but when I have the Metal Masters done, I will post better quality pictures for you Brothers!

BULLETS WIP Preview

Bullets have been a pet peeve of mine from day one, when I determined to make a complete range of 15MM Figures. I have my new Digital Sculptor working on them this week...soon I will be happy I think...lol.

To give you an idea of how fine these little bullets are, each of the squares on the gray background are 1 Milometer.

CYBERPUNK New RPG Preview Conferance

If you love The Classic Cyberpunk RPG, this video will be entertaining I think. I am glad to see a new version of this cool RPG.
