Well, I hope he reads this, and adds this to his list.

I picked up most of his sets, but paying over a dollar per figure is a bit much. What I would like to see is for him to put his humans in a set, and if he charged $5.00 for the set, that would be well worth it, in my opinion.

Hey folks!
Following the discussion, show of hands for a collected set of my human figs! If I have enough takers, I will put something together

And there will be plenty more wolves available soon!

Adam,

if you make a set with your previous human figures I definitely will buy it ( I hope with one/two goodies beacause I have just bought all your sets ) but ...

but I think that an author must make his artworks as he sees them.

Some producers offer their sets thinking about a wargaming ( labrat/nikloveland with their armies ... ), others thinking of a kind/setting ( okumarts with his lines, western, retro sci-fi ... ) ... you, perhaps, first think an adventure/story and then drawing the characters and the enemies/npc. I like this.

After this a collection of favorite figures is good matter for those who need only a few pieces but the sets with the enemies, imho, should be the normal line.

You will definitely resent making these little buggers if you don't follow your inspiration and just start building for a market. Sometimes I just experiment but mostly I'm thinking, "what do I need for minis?" "what void am I filling in my own mini collection?"
The product will always be better and you will definitely enjoy the benefits if you pursue your own muse.

Cheers guys!

Fear not-I will still be making future sets with a definite scenario in mind (although these sets are mostly going to be the 'mini' sets, with fewer minis and a diorama).

It was more to see if it would be worth while making a 'compilation' set of some of the human characters.

;D

I would buy a collected human set, as it would be useful both for grabbing them all at once and for easy printing.

Here's my thought...

If someone asks you for something, and it's something you have done, why not. Even the rock group NIGHTRANGER had a "Best of" record... sure it was a 45... LOL! (That was a CD back in the day that had one song on each side... for the young chaps!).

Anyway, if you already have the figures drawn, why not throw them in a PDF, charge $6.00 or whatever would be reasonable, and if you sell 5 copies, that is $16.00 you might not have had otherwise (based on estimated percentages of distributors such as RPGNow.com) and other overhead costs.

Sounds like you could guarantee 5 sales based on this thread alone.

Perhaps you could change things up a bit by doing recolors or weapon variants so people that purchased the figures in the original sets would want to buy these new ones... after all, if an Agent had a pistol in the first set, and now they have an SMG, who wouldn't want the upgraded figure?

Another idea is your Extraction set (I think that is the name of it) with the biohazard suits in different colors... maybe grey and red (hint, hint).

Wow! I think I just raised the price to closer to $10.00!

Ok, if you print it I will buy it!

Call it something like "Special Forces." You could even make slight color changes to the units and give them new names.

Remember how He-Man and the Masters of the Universe had He-Man, Fakir and Prince Adam... all the same figure, just painted differently.

Ok... that is my marketing advice. I give you my word, in WRITING. You release these you will have a sale the same day!

Option 2: sell your sets as a bundle at a considerable discount!

2 thoughts on the matter.

1.) A collected set of the humans will take minimal effort to accomplish

2.) I would purchase it

[kiladecus]

I am sure MANY people will.

If not, then what would DarkMook be out?

Sounds like a reasonable gamble to me. You already have had nearly 5 people saying they will buy it. Sounds like that in itself should be enough to make it worth your while to throw some miniatures you already have into a PDF, and rake in the money.

Count me in, I would definitely buy a humans set, it would be very useful to me! ;D

I'm planning on buying all your sets here soon anyways, lol!

Also more warewolves would be awesome lol!

I definitely agree. ;D

Also would make printing what human hero/main character someone wanted, lots easier. ;D
