User Gallery: Trench Works

Winterdyne is at it again. This time he has given us an incredible Space Marines Tactical Squad on the "Trench Works" series. The detail on these is fantastic and you can see more on his thread on the RelicNews forums.

I have to admit that I hadn't really imagined anyone using this theme for Space Marines but I really, really like the results. Most of the army is going to use Secret Weapon bases and I've already started begging for a photo. It's going to be incredible.

Product Update: 25mm Urban Streets 01

25mm "Urban Streets" 01 is temporarily unavailable. This mold was made from masters that I didn't keep -- back when this was just a hobby -- and the mold is finally starting to tear.

But don't worry, I have a new set of these bases sculpted in a very similar style waiting to go into the mold. This product should be revised and on the shelf again next week.

Current orders for this product will be fulfilled until the mold gives out altogether.

I apologize for any inconvenience.

User Gallery: Trench Works

This very excellent squad of Ultramarines Scout Snipers was painted by UK commission painter Winterdyne - he has a thread on the RelicNews Forums talking about the techniques - and they are based on the Trench Works 25mm Round Bases.

I really enjoy seeing what other folks are doing with Secret Weapon products. If you'd like to have your project added to the gallery, and here on the blog of course, drop an email with photos to misterjustin at secret weapon miniatures dot com.

Product Update: Wasteland Bases

One of the sites I send new release bulletins to has asked me to limit my updates to once per week. It turns out that releasing new product every couple of days is crowding their news section. My bad, moo moo.

I simply can't help myself when new products like the Wasteland base series is ready to go. This set features more sculpted rock and an abundance of gravel -- with some incredible detailing like the skull, discarded container and computer on the 40mm set.

Both sizes are available now with the 40mm running $10.00 USD per set and the 60mm base coming in at $5.00 USD each.

These bases were sculpted to stand alone as a set but look very good when combined with the "Runic Mountain" bases and a bit of snow.

Product Update: Display Blanks

It's been a few hours since my last product release - which means it must be time for another one!

This time I'm introducing two new display blanks. Each is a 60mm round that measures 14mm high and has your choice of a removable 40mm or 25mm blank in the center. The straight side design of Secret Weapon bases means you won't have large gap between the display base and the gaming base -- and if you decide not to use it as a gaming stand you can always glue the blank in place and decorate over it.

The design was inspired by the rounds often seen on the competition quality models coming from the EU painters and is available now for $8.00 USD each.

Product Update: Weathering Powders

It won't come as a surprise to any Secret Weapon newsletter subscriber - or, really, to anyone that knows how much I enjoy weathering models - but I have introduced a new line of Secret Weapon brand weathering pigments.

I have started with the four colours which I use most often as a hobbyist and they are available individually or as a core colours set.

Each bottle contains approximately 7 grams (20ml) or high quality, non toxic pigment and retails for $4.50.

These pigments are the equal of anything on the market and if this turns out to be a popular product line you can bet I'll start adding to it.
