Title: Siberian Goblinoid Hordes are on the move
Post by: Lex on November 08, 2011, 09:01:23 AM: The topic says it all, the Siberian Goblinoid Hordes are on the move, last reports spot them somewhat easterly of Moscow. Rumour has it that they will face of in a small skirmish with a customs outpost on their way west.

We are not sure if we can track them after they break into the eastern reaches of the Empire, but once they break out and moves past the ruins of Mordheim I would expect to see signs of them soon !

It took them a while to get here but I can attest to the good quality of these troops - particularly the Black Orcs!

Post by: Happymcclap on November 17, 2011, 11:04:54 AM: ooh colour me intrigued! are these miniatures from a Russian Company? If so do they have a website?
Title: Re: Siberian Goblinoid Hordes are on the move
Post by: Lex on November 17, 2011, 12:05:04 PM: Nope, they are fan-cast, picture links in earlier post on Siberian Goblinoids.
Title: Re: Siberian Goblinoid Hordes are on the move
Post by: Happymcclap on November 17, 2011, 03:12:16 PM: Im not sure i follow, are these made from scratch by fans ie sculpted and then cast or are they recasts of someone elses sculpts, if the former i'd be interested to know if they take commission work (need a suitable Gregor Clegane figure) and to see more detailed photos of the final product
Title: Re: Siberian Goblinoid Hordes are on the move
Post by: Lex on November 17, 2011, 03:29:22 PM: Fan sculpted
Fan cast
In the original thread there is a link to pictures from the maker (and his forum ID so that you can PM him)

Post by: BlackEd on December 10, 2011, 08:08:00 PM: Bel!

These Orcs are awesome! I have Gromgor (x2) and 2 units of Black Orcs. The sculpts are spot on. The casting themselves are unbelievable in the amount of detail and lack of flash. I love the fangs on these Black Orcs.

Thanks for doing this! I realize it must have been a pain to do, but I really appreciate the results!

Thanks again!

Ed

Title: Re: Siberian Goblinoid Hordes are on the move
Post by: marell le fou on December 12, 2011, 09:17:01 PM: Mines arrived yesterday !

They are in a medium state but some are broken :-(

The small plastic bags opened and the figs damaged themselves during transport... I always add bubblewrap for my expeditions but i understand you did not had time to pack all those figs for everybody.

Anyway, they are really great. But mines are black coated it seems ? Is it normal ?
Title: Re: Siberian Goblinoid Hordes are on the move
Post by: Lex on December 12, 2011, 09:25:58 PM: Yours where in envelope or box ?? If they where in envelope they where extra padded.....
Maybe the postal services where not happy with me sending them to france........
tell me which ones where broken, I sill see if I have some spares

Yup, pre-painted black and the giants pre-pinned

Post by: Geep on December 30, 2011, 01:48:58 PM: After stopping off to mug some guy in a red suit the goblinoids, with giant in tow, have reached the east coast of Australia.

Thanks to Lex and Big Red for postage- things seem to be in good condition (a few minor bends, as would be expected)
