I'd change 'Realm of Chaos', would you believe Games Workshop have that copyrighted  The released a series of books under the title...... how about Tainted Wastes? or Warped lands?
Might I suggest adopting some of the minis already on here as 'playtest minis' for the game and then getting specific character models and unique units made later, it will give you a head start and anything to promote paper models is good. One monk and sanity produce excellent minis for a huge range of races and slick has some great dwarves.

one monk has a complete elf army, same for undead and lots of other stuff. Sanity has enough humans to cover every infantryman you could need plus lots of 'forest folk' and chaos types.

well there are still some armies/spc. characters who's look doesn't exist yet. Army wise Scarecrows, Hellspout, Ratkins, Gnomes, and trolls are my main concern.

I think posting the rules would be better off in the "GAMING" section of the board, since it wouldn't be a request, but I'm sure plenty of us would be glad to see them.

I see your point, Adam, but I also thing that he is asking for people to draw figures and make models... that fits here.
I would gladly give you models and miniatures... there is one catch, though. I am PAINFULLY slow at creating miniatures, and I can whip up a new model in about two hours. The thing about that is, I use a program that has strict copyright laws and regulations, so eventhough I "create" models, the textures I use are copyrighted.
So, I would be willing to help, but at this point, I really can't see a way to help.
Check out my stuff and if you want to PM me, feel free. I might be able to get SOMETHING for you. Depending on what you are looking for, I have done a few things that were strictly my own work (from sketches to finished product).

Thank you adam for reminding me about the gaming section, but we've run into some major mechanical problems and the rules are being updated to account for them. And thank you Kiladecus for volunteering to help with models. We look forward to what you can come up with. Also new post. http://fieldsofwar.blogspot.com/2011/10/forces-of-wartrolls.html

This is something I would totally help out with, except that strangely enough, I am already working on such a project. All of my artwork time goes into work for Sanity Studios/Onemonk Miniatures.
That, and like Kiladecus, I am also painfully slow. Much to the chagrin of those wanting new figures.
But I admire your project, and I wish you the best. You just have to do what Nik did, and befriend an artist. Slowly over time you begin to exercise control over him, and bring him into the chains of slavery with you as his master (not in a sexual way ). Soon you will have someone to do all your artwork, FOR FREE!

Just saying...

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!
I befriended an artist, forgot this very wise advice and now we have two kids and she never finished the character drawings and paper minis for our RPG campaign. Much busy doing other things...
All luck to you!

I will keep that advice in mind.

And then their eyes... THEIR EYES" -the Rambling of former captain Delr Tocsten http://fieldsofwar.blogspot.com/2011/11/legends-of-wararabi-vanished-realm.html

Been working on some preliminary stuff, and once I have something worth posting for you, I will get a hold of you... maybe as early as this week.

"Welcome to Hellspout the most unpredictable and energetic port the world has ever seen. It's the freest place in the whole world, although I'd watch your step and your silver because half-trolls and goblins like picking fights and they need money too. If you're looking to wet your whistle I'd stop at a pub, although I'd also make sure to have a dagger in hand and my wits about me. The ale may taste like horse piss but it's well known to make dwarves angry, humans brave, and gnomes even more belligerent than usual. Enjoy your stay but be quick on your feet or it's liable to be a short one." -message porters are supposed to tell each visitor to Hellspout http://fieldsofwar.blogspot.com/2011/11/forces-of-warhellspout.html

we do have some sketches but most of them are rough drafts. we have put up 4 sketches so far but 2 of them are maps. If you would like, we have a few sketches of Scarecrows here that you can see: http://cardboard-warriors.proboards.com/....lay&thread=3299
