Medbury Miniatures: August Patreon

Diesen Monat gibt es Men at Arms und Zwerge bei Medbury Miniatures.

August Historical Release!

There’s several posts coming this week with previews for both the patreon/Tribes STL’s and the WW2 Kickstarter, and today were starting with the August previews for the Medieval historical releases for Patreon/Tribes and our webstore! These models will be available to download on the 5th of the month, and up on the webstore once the molds are made and photos are done!*

We are rounding out the early 100YW range and filling in some missing models. It’s been over a year since the range began, and these will be the first 12 models of Infantry/cavalry with hand weapons! Mostly swords but some others too. These models are dressed up in a mix of surcoats/mail and brigandine, to complement a lot of the prior kits like the english billmen and french infantry all have swords on their belt, so this new foot kit is essentially meant to be, without their spear/bill. The mounted kit here is depicted on Usual Horses but will have the Barded horses pack included because some of these figures will work either alongside the knights or commanders perhaps

From here, i have some sculpts of Knights with pole arms, knights with swords mounted, i want to put out as well as these same mounted models with Spear/shield, so im thinking that will be octobers release

Tomorrow we will have the fantasy Preview, there are 12 Dwarf rangers and 4 Miners. And the day after that ill have another post for the WW2 Kickstarter, that is very close to being ready to go, i had mentioned i intended to have it ready by the 1st, but in hindsight that was silly to have its deadline due at the same time as our regular releases, i am working on that tomorrow and the day after, but i expect it to be a day or 2 later then the first of august.

*the last few months Historical kits are up in metal as are some fantasy, our vulcaniser’s had some hiccups, it is repaired and! in a weeks time we are collecting our new 2nd vulcaniser! then we will be back on track with the monthly physical releases,

August Fantasy Release!

For the 2nd post this week, I have the fantasy releases for August! This month we again continue with the trend of dwarves with a full set of 16, i opted to go with rangers this month over warriors because there are a handful of updated warriors already on MMF and ive never done a full set of rangers, these figures will be available to download on the 5th of the month as per usual, and the metal figures will be up as soon as photography is done!

The first kit i’ll go over today aren’t the rangers but the odd kit of the bunch, the dwarf miners, someone in the discord noted that the idea of dwarf rangers with 2 handed axes to him seemed a bit unfitting, and miners like this had always been on my to do list anyway, so i thought that it would be a good time to do them because from a armour POV they arent any more equipped then the rangers, so you could use these models as the same profile in games and just call them miners instead, i had not thought to do the same styled designs with bows and small picks but if that’s something people want we could do later, these guys have a mix of different tunics and belt accessories, some chisels mallets, pouches for there finds, their poses aren’t meant to be combative per say, they could simply just be mining, and would be neat to put them on a display board with some rocks next to them or something, but of course the same swinging action of mining a rock works for hitting a goblin.

The next 3 kits are packs of dwarf rangers with different equipment, these models are similar to the roadwardens from last month but without any armour and more travel packs on there back, most of them have big pack of bags bed rolls, cooking equipment and all sorts of oddities they have picked up from their travels, the 3 packs are broken down into 4 with bows, 4 with 2 handed axes, and 4 with just axes. The first 2 sets generally also have a small axe on there belt or in there pack as a hand weapon

From here going into september, im pretty sure we will do the updated warriors, thats axe/shield, 2 handed axes, archers, some of the metal kits we have that aren’t yet STL’s,

So that’s all the patreon/Tribes releases covered, the next post this afternoon/tomorrow morning will be the Kickstarter launch!
