Title: Goblin Bolt Throwers?
Post by: David Wasilewski on June 08, 2011, 04:28:49 PM: I recollect that, in the past, some enterprising soul on this forum made their own Warmaster Goblin Bolt Thrower models. Does anyone know who/how they did it? Any pictures?

If that person is still on these forums and reads this, would you be willing to make me some for a commission or trade? (I'm interested in up to 6 being made). I have some goblin rock lobber crew spare (the one who looks like he's carrying a bolt) if that helps.

If not, any suggestions on how I could make my own would be gratefully received.

Dave

If so it would be me your looking for then.

Your in luck as I actually molded the bolt thrower up so I can cast some for you. Do you need 6 bolt throwers- 3 units or 6 units?

The crew are up to you I can just supply the bolt throwers. The crew are from the Orc crew pack that was once supplied seperately they are the same as the rock lobber crew. The hammer top was made from a piece of plastic rod.

PM me and we can discuss it further.

I can't make anymore of the Doom Divers or Pump Wagons before anyone asks!

That said, Dave's are nicer ;)

Post by: David Wasilewski on June 08, 2011, 09:25:06 PM: PS Has anybody else noticed how many "Daves" there are on this forum?

We'll have to start numbering ourselves :)

We've got about 5 Matt's in the northeastern US EA group though, talk about a problem... We've got a Matt A, B, C, K and T, plus I even hear tell of a Matt F...

Shame about there be no more doom divers or pump wagons- they're all great sculpts.

Post by: marell le fou on June 09, 2011, 09:41:07 AM: Not tempted to rebuild them ? Even if we regroup for a huge command ?
Title: Re: Goblin Bolt Throwers?
Post by: David Wasilewski on June 09, 2011, 10:45:28 AM: I'd certainly be willing to commit to buying 9 Pump Wagons (I'd just use them as alt Goblin Chariots) and 6 DoomDivers.

Post by: DaveC on June 09, 2011, 11:24:29 AM: I'll get back to you. Thats not a yes but it's not a no either.
Title: Re: Goblin Bolt Throwers?
Post by: marell le fou on June 09, 2011, 10:06:08 PM: I would say "same as Dave"... No, not you, the other Dave :)
