I have three new 28mm mini sets to announce: Greenhold Command - Includes 1 captain, 2 lieutenants, and 2 spell-casters  Red Clan Orc Leadership - Includes 1 chieftain, 2 champions, and 2 shamans  Red Clan Orc Hunters - Includes 5 stealthy rangers armed with longbows and knives   As with all my minis, these come pre-printed on cardstock, pre-cut to shape and double-sided with front and back artwork.

Wonderful products, as usual, Pasiphilo.  Finally!  So there are four new sets for me. Within a few days, when I return home from vacation, I will put my new order ( ... mmm ... I think about 24 sets, plus four of the previous two, but I still hear kaltorak ( Umberto Pignatelli aka Beasts & Barbarians' author ), if also this time he needs something ). I see that now there is space between the figures' legs ( "Red Clan Orc Hunters" and "Greenhold Command" sets ). Perhaps will also be updated the previous sets?

Thanks very much, you guys! And thank you in advance, Rhannon, for your order! (: I know these took me a while, but I intend to produce new sets at a faster rate now. I see that now there is space between the figures' legs ( "Red Clan Orc Hunters" and "Greenhold Command" sets ). Perhaps will also be updated the previous sets? Yes indeed, I'm pleased to say that I've streamlined my process further and future production runs of all sets will be cut accordingly. (:

Excellent! Do you have any plans for mounted figures or big scary monsters?

Excellent! Do you have any plans for mounted figures or big scary monsters? Yes on both counts! First up will probably be the big scary monsters - or "large" creatures, in D20 parlance. (:

Are these available as a PDF or are they Pre-Printed sets only?

My sets are pre-printed only. Darn, I really like PDF's due to the ability to print multiples of figures and also if a figure gets ruined (say from the kids) then it's just a matter of printing a new one, rather than buying the whole set again. Still I have to say your mini's look absolutely stunning!

(: And I hear ya re: PDF, but my minis are pretty sturdy since they're printed on cardstock instead of paper.

I think most of us print on card stock. I know I do. I use 65# for anything that gets mounted on foam core and 110# for my figures. I also use self adhesive laminating sheets so they are very durable. Unless by card stock you mean something more like chip board or artist's mounting board.

That's what I use also 80 lb - 110 lb card stock for all my models. Sometimes I also laminate something's.

Thanks, that's good to know. My minis are printed on 110 lb cardstock. I use 110# cardstock myself, but it doesn't seem as heavy as what you're using Pasiphilo. It's missing that nifty sticky backing as well, so obviously you're using a superior stock to what the office supply stores are selling. - Pb

I did try to buy your older sets but the site says : no shiping to southamerica  Reivaj: I think that may be another advantage to PDFs, they are normally available for anyone to buy regardless of location, and also don't have to worry about shipping or anything being lost or damaged in transit, Lol. Pasiphilo: I know if there was a PDF version of all your sets for sale I'd buy them for sure, Lol. They really are beautiful miniatures!

I did try to buy your older sets but the site says : no shiping to southamerica  That's very strange, Reivaj. How recently did you try to place the order? I was only shipping to the US and Canada up to about 1½ years ago, but I've opened my store up to international shipping since then, and have taken orders from customers internationally, including the United Kingdom, Australia, and Italy. Please try again and if you still have trouble, please PM me here or contact me through the store. We'll figure it out. (: Pasiphilo: I know if there was a PDF version of all your sets for sale I'd buy them for sure, Lol. They really are beautiful miniatures!  Thanks for the compliments, uptrainfan89! (: I understand and respect your feelings, but for a variety of business reasons, I've chosen to keep this line minis available as physical products only.

The figure artwork is professionally printed on quality coated cardstock, which is made a bit firmer by the adhesive layer.

While I won't be picking up any pre-printed minis any time soon (I love them, but I like uptrainfan89 suggested, my kid(s)* might wreck them), but I learned two great things - 1) you're a fellow Canadian 2) I love your commission work. So you are on my wish list for Christmas, now  * I've a 3 year old that puts the Tasmanian Devil to shame, my 7 year old is rather better.

I wish I could get my hands on some for use with figures & those buildings like Lord ZseZse's Elven Mill. - Pb

I'd wondered about this, as the "Shipping" page on your website (when I checked last week) only listed options for Canada and the USA. Might be worth updating this, since I wasn't sure if you'd be able to ship to the UK, although presumably the shopping cart would eventually tell you whether this was possible or not. Plus I know Rhannon's in Italy, so had guessed you'd likely be OK for shipping to Europe following his post. Reivaj's difficulty might suggest there's some sort of glitch in the works somewhere, however. Joys of technology, eh?!

Yes,Gaming Geek also sends in Europe ( in fact I'm in Italy ). personally I prefer "small air pocket" shipping option. It is a good shipping ( safe, good price, and about two weeks ), imho. PS: Pasiphilo is a great artist, his commercial products are excellent and also he offers a great professional service for delivery and support.

I'd wondered about this, as the "Shipping" page on your website... only listed options for Canada and the USA. Might be worth updating this... An excellent point, Wyvern. I've updated my Shipping page to clarify that I do, in fact, ship internationally. Thanks very much for pointing that out.

(: It's always nice to meet another Canadian out on The Internets. (; Whereabouts in Canada do you live? I'm in New Brunswick, Canada's most-oft forgotten province.  I'd hoped to be up in your neck of the woods visiting my sister in Toronto this week, but things didn't work out. I was looking forward to checking out some of the gaming stores up there. My local one is overrun with 40K & MTG (neither my thing), so that my small, FLCBS is a better source for my incipient RPG fetish. The internet is great for shopping, but it's always nice to see and perhaps feel things too. Plus, as you well know, shipping can be brutal here. Your paper minis seem like a nice, light alternative though. Just have to wait until my three-year old is a little more ... calm. The One Monk and variation style has the black outline which I love (particularly as I cut by hand), but yours are the first really nice ones I can recall with the white outline. I've been playing Card Hunter the last few day, and I must say, your minis would fit in beautifully.

My local one is overrun with 40K & MTG (neither my thing), so that my small, FLCBS is a better source for my incipient RPG fetish. I'm sorry to admit that NB is the only Maritimes province I haven't visited, but that's why I'd make a point of checking it out if I travel east again. (: If you do get to Toronto, you may want to check out The Silver Snail and Harry Tarantula - two comic book/gaming shops that may cater more to your RPG tastes. (There are others, but those are the two I know.) And should you happen to visit in the last week of August, try to get to FanExpo! The internet is great for shopping, but it's always nice to see and perhaps feel things too. Plus, as you well know, shipping can be brutal here. Your paper minis seem like a nice, light alternative though. Just have to wait until my three-year old is a little more ... calm. I agree wholeheartedly about being able to see and touch something you're considering buying. I've also been selling my paper minis at geek culture conventions where they do well, in part, I'm sure, because people can pick them up and examine them and there is no shipping to contend with. I have a six-year-old son who is gentle enough with the figures that we can play a simple home-brew tabletop game system together with all the sets I've created. (He always plays the Greenhold.) Making figures that he and I could play with together was probably one of the biggest reasons I started doing this in the first place. (: The One Monk and variation style has the black outline which I love (particularly as I cut by hand), but yours are the first really nice ones I can recall with the white outline. I've been playing Card Hunter the last few day, and I must say, your minis would fit in beautifully. Thanks very much! I admit to preferring the white outline because I think it presents the artwork better. I'd say that for tabletop RPG use on battle mats, the white-trimmed figures work nicely whereas for war-gaming with model terrain, the black-trimmed figures fit in better. Pasiphilo tell me how you cut the figures? Machine or by hand? Knife, scissors? Hi, Pavaro. My figures are cut by machine. (I'd go bonkers if I had to cut them all out by and.) (:
