I have to wonder parduz, is that a veiled BSG reference? I'm sorry, i dont understand your question.... what is "BSG"  BattleStar Galactica; some of the main characters are machines, not human (at least in the recent reimagined series). Sirrob01, some of them are available now, on my site www.tcfgaming.com Many of them are free, although generally only those based on other peoples' work (mostly Star Wars atm) will be. Thank you, Tirick |

I've never seen a BSG episode after the eighties. I dunno if the new series was shown in Italy. Sure it was not on free TV channels (i refuse to pay to watch TV  ). |

**Just shakes head** I have trouble building some figures that are 40mm long, let alone something like THIS! Ahhhhhhhh! As far as "cheap" figures, there are plastic ones (Star Wars) you can get on-line for less than a $1 (USD) -excluding shipping- but this is both AMAZING, but seeing that quiver of arrows in your fingertips made eyes twinge! Great job, that is for sure, but the ONLY way I would own one is if SOMEONE ELSE would build it! Any takers? AMAZING work, but ... OY!  |

I've been chipping away at finalizing components for the next release, and took some time to assemble another figure to showcase an element that will be available in the new set: two-sided cloaks! The figure uses some other components from the new set, including the bow, quiver, new color for the tunic, and an extension that lends the appearance of a tunic that is loose, rather than tucked in.    The character is loosely based on a ranger PC from a Pathfinder campaign I am running. As usual, the figure would benefit from some minor paint application, but I'm showing 'as assembled' for the benefit of those who might be unwilling or able to paint-touchup. Enjoy! Tirick |

Finished another figure, and have another four in the 'wings' so to speak. The crossbow, really the last print test component for the set, assembled quite well, and so aside from print layout and instructions the expansion set is ready for release. I plan to buckle-down and get that done and ready within the week. The winch is a separate component (it is in fact made of 5 components in and of itself) and may be assembled as is or attached to a belt/quiver. I am very happy the the cloaks as well, both have posed nicely. With trimming they would serve as good capes as well.     Enjoy! Tirick |

Very nice work.
Ever though about using a digital camera to do stop motion type photography?
With those pose able figures, you could do a little mini movie.
I think you just need a cable to run to your computer and some free software.
...well and the time to do it.

The level of detail you are achieving now is really impressive. You could assemble some dioramas and put your work in some galleries. Seriously good work.

Great figure! I especially like the posability of your models, and all of them are so lifelike!

Thank you all for your comments! I've not considered stop-motion, but as they are not articulated, I'd have to make a lot of the same model.
The cloaks are pretty simple really, made very similarly to cloth ones, although as paper is more stiff it really forces me to use two-sided printing rather than folding.

The Man at Arms expansion set is now available! In it is included sheets to make many hafted weapons, composite bows, crossbows, and double-sided cloaks, in addition to some retextures of the hauberk and tunic available in the main set. Coupled with the full Man at Arms set, this line is well suited for dioramas, figure wargaming, and fantasy rpgs', and at a price per figure far below any plastic or metal figurine. Each figure takes the same (or less) time to print and build as a standard 35mm wargaming figure takes to assemble and paint. As well, for the month of February get 25% off the Man at Arms set, and get both together! See the store section at TCF Gaming for details. Enjoy! Tirick |
