I am planning to have a new DEADLY MISSIONS set released with 20 new figures and around 30 new character/villain cards... plus a new twist! Stay tuned for more.

So, are you switching to Poser figures?

Well, honestly, at this point, it looks like I am NOT!
I have been on the fence with it for quite a while, but I think I am going to stick with my standard style...
I think that going a different route will be a BIG mistake in the long-run. I can stay with what I do, and once I get to the point that the industry doesn't want me or my work, then I will go back from the rock I came out from.
Any other thoughts?

I'm happy to ear this. I honestly hate the results of Poser: i still have to see a figure made with it which have .... "tension".... everything seems without weight. And the rendering is ugly. But, as i saw on facebook, it could be a great reference for some complicate poses or angle .... just like the old wooden poseable mannequin the artists was using some time ago. Keep going

I agree with Parduz - glad you'll not be switching to Poser. The results of that program/method/whatever definitely lie within the "Uncanny Valley" for me - they are lifeless, dull, and creepy for all the wrong reasons. Having just picked up some of your old Warmancers stuff during the summer sale, and enjoying it, I for one don't think the customers will abandon you anytime soon, no matter how "old-school" your figures are. I hope to pick up the first Deadly Missions soon, as pocket money allows I think it might be a good game to play with my 7-year old on our two-day drive to visit my sister. I may have to simplify the scenarios a bit, but from what I've seen it looks very do-able. And I love me some Inked Adventures!

Thanks for the kind words, WackyAnne, and the support. I did end up releasing my expansion set of figures (they are basically a "freebie" with the set).
My old-school drawings are going to be the mainstay of my work... but, there will be some renders in other sets (that require it). My 30mm stuff will remain as it is.
