Title: You can do it the right way, or the Reiter way!
Post by: Dave on March 15, 2017, 01:24:15 PM: Bob's going to be starting on Warmongers next commission in the coming weeks: Reiter. We'll be seeing 7 horsemen (1 command type, 1 banner, 5 rank) armed with two pistols and a sword, and wearing Trabharnisch armor.

Post by: forbes on April 19, 2017, 09:34:34 PM: They look very interesting.

A couple look a bit 'dumpy' the second in from both the left and right. Looks like he is very slumped in the saddle.

Post by: Stormwind on April 19, 2017, 10:55:44 PM: Looking good!

Post by: Tiberius on April 19, 2017, 11:23:42 PM: Looking fantastic! Can't wait, pistoliers have always been my favorite unit in warhammer.

Post by: Dave on April 25, 2017, 03:05:27 PM: OK, I had Bob do a bit more work on them. I asked to have the "slumped" riders un-slumped, some plumage added and some hands/scabbards more defined.

Post by: forbes on April 26, 2017, 08:31:13 PM: They are looking really good now!!

Title: Re: You can do it the right way, or the Reiter way!
Post by: Dave on May 04, 2017, 02:06:06 PM: Reiter are on their way to me. I'm hoping to have them down at the caster next week. Once they have a price per unit for me (1-2 weeks more I'm guessing) I'll launch the KS. I just need it to cover the molds and casting, so another $500-600 goal is what I'm thinking.

Post by: Stormwind on May 06, 2017, 09:35:30 PM: That's great! I'll post them on my gaming group forum when it starts. <3

Post by: Dave on May 12, 2017, 12:31:55 PM: The greens are down with my caster. I'm hoping to hear from him next week on production unit costs. Once I do the KS will be live.
