a slightly more refined figure I still need to work a bit on the shoulder pads and get the beard right but I looks way better then the last one. The chest is going to get squashed a little bit and all the solid gray areas will get a chain-mail texture.  Slick. |

Here is a look at one of the final figures. There will be 10 figs in the set 3 with axes, 3 with swords, 3 with hammers and a champion. I might do 2 different colors but we will see. The archer is there for you to get a sense of scale. Enjoy  Slick |

Here are the poses and a look at what the back will be like. I need to finish the backs and then make the champion. Enjoy,  Slick. |

Small update on the status of these guys. The first 10 are done and shaded but I have decided to release them a little different then the usual 10 figure set. My goal is to try to make miniatures that can be used for most any game out there. With that being said I'm going to try something different. I will be releasing my fantasy sets in 30 figure CORE sets. What does this mean? For starters you will still be getting 30 different posed figures but I will be making 3 individual figures of each troop type and 9 individual "hero" type figures. These set will be bunched together and sold for $8.95. I feel that this price should be good because I reuse most of the core parts (heads, bodies and legs) and just made different weps, armors and cloaks to give the sets some dimension. The Dwarf set will include the following.
3X Axe/Shield
3x Swords/Shield
3x Hammers/Shield
3x Heavy Armor/Great Axe
3x Heavy Armor/Great Hammer
3x Marksmen with guns
3x Healers with mace
1x sergeant with Hammer/Sword
1x Sniper with (you guessed it) Sniper gun
1x Wolf pet for Sniper
1x Paladin with Great Sword
1x Priest with Hammer and Tome
1x Berserker with twin Axes
1x Banner Holder with (you guessed it again) Banners
1x Horn blower with (you guessed it again! Copy and paste makes annoying things like this so easy.) Horn and Axe
1x General with War Axe
All in all I think this will be a good mix of figures and will work for both the War gamer and Skirmisher alike.

I like this plan. ;D The idea of getting a regimental core all at once has a huge appeal to me. The price is good too. Are you thinking these will be out before Thanksgiving or Christmas?  |

My goal for these guys is to get them out between the 15th and the 20th of this month. The 7 base troop types are done and I'm working on the the individual figures at this time. I will also be testing digital representations of the figures for the thumbnail and main views. This is for two reasons 1) I don't have the room to put together 30 figures. 2) At the moment I am not set up to take pictures of something that large. So this set will be my first major step away from One Monk's format and I hope it will work out. If it does I would like to get a few more standard army types out of the way (humans, orcs, elves etc) then do some creature packs like creatures of the forest, desert, shore and so on.

How about a dwarfen gyrocopter? or some dwarfen musketeers? Dwarfen cannon? I like your work. The NCC troopers are excellent. |

you will get 3 musketeers in the set with an sniper special unit figure. As far as the tanks and gryo go ill put them on my to do list but the population of that list is growing like rabbits in heat. I have all the figures done as of now and am working on getting all the backs squared away. I am no longer unemployed so I have a whole lot less time to get things done. I'm aiming for a early December release date for these since I missed my November
one.

Congratulations on your re-employment and I hope to be able to give you some extra spending money in the near future. I'd love to have a Dwarf Army. |

when you release the dwarfs, will there be some duergar (dark dwarfs) or chaos dwarfs included too?

All though you will get a blank set and the vector parts so you can tweak and customize however you like. My Fantasy army list is also not even made up yet so i can think about adding these at some time. Slick |
