Antenociti's Workshop (somehow I misspell that three times everytime I try to type that) will be producing a plastic 28mm hovertank sometime in the near future. This comes as a surprise to me as they are usually known for their terrain products. The prototype (below) has some good detail, and apparently it's modular in design so you can assemble it as you like. Not sure if I'm a fan of the "giant surfboard" part though.

Very nice, I like that the face doesn't have that gaunt runway model look to it.

If you go to their online store there's a section where you can order indivual parts from blisters. Do a search on the model number and it should turn up as a separate item. I like the greek one, but would probably trim of one of the javelins.

And it's not even painted either!

There's words here???? I just look at the pretty pictures!

To improve your adhesion between layers would be to sand the CD before you break it up.

It's a well done sculpt, but something about it leaves me "meh"

That is hilarious but what I want to know is why the guys on the rocket sled chair didn't get off when it started to rotated. Oh, and note to self, don't sit on a massage chair in Japan.

I don't really like the sculpt but you and Sue have done an amazing job on it. I love that green on the wings. Looks like this guy would be quite at home in a deep forest or swamp.

Guess this one is classified somewhere between tabletop miniatures wargame and miniatures boardgame. Apparently it comes with a butt-load of plastic minis.

Lovely. That red is so rich and deep, and I really like the blue on the hammer/pick/thingy as well.

Stupid computers. This is the beginning of the Robot Revolution I tell you. Soon greeting cards will be wandering the streets shouting communist propaganda!

Yeah, I know what you mean. I wish companies would give a true scale instead of some arbitrary measurement.

@$#Q#$%$ @%$@#$ @Q%$#!@% Having one of those days

Website says 25 or 28mm.

Among other things.

About freakin' time.

Forge World’s latest newsletter has focused on their Tau Manta vehicle. The long awaited “miniature” is finally complete and ready for order and Forge World has several articles examining it. As usual you should expect delays, if not actual errors, trying to load the Forge World website today due to high traffic demands on the site. From their announcement: For over a year now, Will Hayes has been working on a 40K scale Tau Manta and recently he was finally able to say it was finished. The Manta is by far the largest model that Games Workshop has ever produced, and by a long way too. The Manta measures 630mm/25 inches long and has a wingspan of 860mm/34 inches. Weighing in at 12.5 kilos/28 pounds, this beast weighs six times as much as a Thunderhawk Gunship, and that is before we put all the tanks and Battlesuits inside. You can see exterior shots of the Manta or detailed shots of the interior.

Reaper has had these in the works for some time now and have finally released the resized Tsuiseki, Kikyu, and Hedgehog minis. Here's the pics with pics of the old smaller versions for reference. Tsuiseki (corrected scale) $10.49 and the original Kikyu (corrected) $9.49 And the Hedgehog APC $12.49 I was painting some of the older Tsuisekis today and they are quite the pain, the new ones should be easier, especially for a good camo pattern, and look better on the table. Will probably pick the new ones up in a couple weeks.

Ahh, sorry 'bout that. Don't play Warmachine myself so wouldn't have been able to recognize the difference.

PP has made a quickstart version of their Warmachine: Superiority rules available for download. Linkage below
