Kickstarter for Custom Made Miniatures
These guys are putting together a website where you can put together your own custom miniatures and have them printed off and sent to you. I thought the 'scraping community might have some intrest in this.
Here's the link. |

Re: Kickstarter for Custom Made Miniatures
Don't you already have six squads or something? I thought you brought some massive viper army to GenCon?

Re: Kickstarter for Custom Made Miniatures
They're so far off from this goal ...
I've had dreams where I have the power to make HS minis. I typically get stumped though: HS has a scale to it other than height. Figures are in general broader than RL counterparts - it's why (some) D&D minis look way off in comparison. So, 1: Have new minis match the broad scale of the originals 2: Reprint old minis with updated style (slimness and realism) |

What I was refering to is to make more Vipers that could become Warlords or Spitting Vipers. |

Re: Kickstarter for Custom Made Miniatures
They really should have picked a better piece for their proof of concept.
"Using our 3D interface, you to can create a vague jumbled mess of undetailed parts!" The tiny pic of a transparent unpainted lump of plastic does nothing to tell me how good at 3D printing they are either, no way to see if there is any detail there at all. All in all, quite possibly the worst job of selling what good have been a cool idea I've ever seen.

Re: Kickstarter for Custom Made Miniatures
I've recently bought a couple of minis from Shapeways. They already offer you the chance to print any mini you can dream up, you just have to create the 3-D file yourself. It looks like they want to offer that aspect of the process by providing a bunch of generic 3-D mini parts that you can assemble however you want. Which would be a nice feature if it works out the right way. The material cost for Shapeways can get pretty high though. I wonder what that clear plastic they used cost.
