The "Instant Scenery Kit - Winter" will start shipping tomorrow which means that today is the last day of the pre-order sale. Pick yours up today for only $10!

Thanks to everyone that entered. Given the number of entries and excited emails it's likely that I'll do this again in the future with another product.

Product Update: Square Bases

Here's a quick peek at one of two new sets of themed bases working their way into the queue. This set, sculpted by Huw Davies, will become the "Infected Village" line and will highlight some of Huw's incredible ability to sculpt plague, rot and disease effects.

The series is being sculpted so that it makes a cohesive visual set in 2x5 or 4x5 sets -- creating instant scenes for your fantasy units.

Stay tuned to see more WIP shots of this set and, of course, the final product before it goes to mold.

Customer Voice: 2mm Brass Letters

"Big problem I had was letters and numbers and your brass will solve the problem. Only ordered one initially because I wasn't sure of size/quality--as you can see, very satisfied and thus my order for two more." --Tom

Tom has promised to send photos of one of the 54mm ACW figures he's using the 2mm Copperplate Gothic Letters on. I'll get that posted here when it comes.

Thanks for the kind words, Tom!
