We thought you would like to see a couple of pictures of another project of ours that we are releasing at Salute - just got test shots today so pictures are taken at the workbench - it's stone walls and railings with a hinged gate - pack will comprise of 2 frames, each frame contains 4 lengths of stone wall and railings, 1 gate pillar and 1 gate - ideal for graveyard surrounds. The 2 frame pack will make 81cms of railings (including gates).


Finally the last of our releases for Salute - American style gravestones - there's 44 on a frame - 2 frames in a pack - there are 3 variations of sizes of the gravestones-£6 a pack - ideal maybe with our new railings and gates. The figures shown are for size comparison only (used with permission of Perry Miniatures) Also an update on the railings (this is for you Arthur) we will also be releasing a railings expansion pack (at Salute), this pack will contain just railings - 3 railings per frame and 4 in a pack - approximately 100cm of railings - £10 a pack.

Northstar Miniatures and Osprey Games - Link

The Dwarves are Marching to War! Later this year, North Star Military Figures and Osprey Games will be releasing a new range of fantasy miniatures, beginning with a plastic box set of Dwarf Infantry! Each sprue from this set allows you to build 5 Dwarves armed with spears, hand weapons, or bows, with a huge variety of head options. We are also working on similar boxes for Elves and Goblins! There are no official release dates yet, BUT we will have a limited number of pre-release Dwarf sprues for sale at Salute!!! These will be £5 a sprue and strictly limited to one per customer. More sneak peeks from the range will be on display at the Osprey Games stand; so, swing by stand TJ05 early, get your sprue, and see what all of the excitement is about.


Studio Miniatures - Link

We will be launching 12 new Survivors for our 28mm Z-Clipz zombie range at Salute this year (stand TA17) then on the website at the end of April. We have Burt and Fu, Jay and the Professor, Baba, Henry, The Soul Brothers, Abraham, Quinn, Corey and Vaz. All of the miniatures are supplied unpainted and come with 30mm round plastic bases. Sculpted by Paul Hicks and painted by Andy Taylor.




Northstar Miniatures - Link

"Last week I received an advance-casting of the newest Frostgrave miniature, and it is, by far, the largest model in the range. It is hoped that a limited number of these will be available for purchase at Salute, before the model goes on regular release later in the year. I don't have any details on pricing yet. The miniature is cast in resin and came in about a dozen pieces, but thanks to the well thought-out design, all of the pieces fit together perfectly with no trouble at all. The model comes with a scenic base, but I prefer my minis on round bases."


Osprey Games - Link

Already available but too cool to not include here - More than 150 years have passed since the apocalypse that nearly destroyed the Earth. Today, the planet is a torn remnant of its former glory, ravaged by nuclear fallout and mutagens. New lifeforms - Mutants and Synthetics - challenge True Humanity for dominance, while warring factions compete for survival and supremacy, and all must carve out their place in this brutal landscape, or else perish as billions before them. Scrappers is skirmish miniatures game set in the wastelands, where players assemble Scrapper Crews and send them out to scavenge scraps of Ancient technology and battle rival factions. Explorers, cultists and raiders clash with mutated creatures, robotic soldiers and embittered True Humans in this wargame of salvage and survival in the ruins of the future.


Too Fat Lardies - Reisswitz Press - Link

As always, Salute promises to be the big event on the UK wargaming calendar and once again we will be present with lots of exciting stuff.  Top of the agenda is the news that Reisswitz Press will be present with Dave Brown and is chums from Loughton Strike Force will be running a demo of Dave’s forthcoming Napoleonic rules, General d’Armee.  You can catch up with Dave, the man rightly known as the Grand Master of Napoleonic Rules, at table GJ14 where, he tells me, his game will feature some gardening in Dresden (the clue’s in the question folks!). We’ll be releasing the rules at Partizan on the 21st of May, so this is a great opportunity to get a preview of what promises to be the big rules release of the year.  To sharpen your appetite, here’s a view of the cover in all of its resplendent glory.


Crooked Dice - Link

The eight Female Minions will be available at the show. They will be in the webstore from 01 April. It’s £20 for the eight model deal or £3 each.

Four alternate female head sprues are also available. Each sprue is £2 and contains four heads of either unhelmeted, beret, infantry cap or hard hat. Meanwhile you can slide across your bonnet with these two Hero Cops, ideal for leading your Lawmen into battle.

Work has started on the painting of this years Salute Dragon, need to get him finished so we can get the box art in time for Salute - Box art for this years Salute dragon is all finished as is the rest of the model not just the photograph side


Eureka Miniatures - Link

Emerging from the heat shimmer, they come in a roar of sound and fury, the nomad brigands and road pilots. Chrome, dust, and rust in your rearview mirror are the first harbingers of impending doom. Then the incessant chatter of twin Vickers fills your ears and your auto begins to disintegrate around you. It's the 'Dirty Thirties' and you're having a very bad day... Pray Maximillion is out here somewhere.





Hot off the press and imminently available for Salute pre-orders, comes the next wave of our Michael Moorcock Hawkmoon figures. This release sees the unleashing of the wolves and features the elite fighters of the Mad Empire. As you can see from these images Alan Marsh has done the subject proud with variously armed Wolf clan warriors and slaves in clan service. For those of you who have been howling for someone to bring the fight to the Kamargians, your clan awaits.







We've been teasing some of the greens for our 28mm WWII Pacific Australians range of late. And now Kosta Heristanidis has painted some of his figures for your delectation. The range will be available in strictly limited numbers at Salute.
