Latest Updates from Our Project:

We are not re-locking any Stretch Goals
over 7 years ago – Fri, Dec 02, 2016 at 08:32:10 PM

Not sure exactly what took the wind out of our sails other than the Holidays, as several backers who have dropped have already told me.  I just want to make sure that you all know, that we have no intention of Locking up any of the Stretch Goals theat have been unlocked.   Right now that sits us at 32 miniatures!!  Still not a bad deal.

We will see a bunch of forward momentum hopefully in the last 4 days, but in the meantime, I am asking all of you once again to help push the project.   

This is the link to share:

In the meanwhile here are a few Work in Progress shots of the "Green" sculpts.  These are the original masters that I will mold and cast in pewter when they are finished!

 

 

 

New Pledge Group Includes First 10 Stretch Goals
over 7 years ago – Sat, Nov 26, 2016 at 06:40:56 PM

The first 10 stretch goals have been solidly unlocked, and we thank you all very much!

We have heard that some are not such big fans of picking and choosing miniatures as the final survey process can be cumbersome. This pledge group is the first step towards us answering those types of concerns while also offering an incentive to those who want to move their pledge up to take advantage of what this project now has to offer.

The second step we are taking is the use of BACKERKIT to handle the survey and pre-order stage for this project. For those of you unfamiliar with BACKERKIT it offers a shopping cart interface to make picking and choosing ADD-ONS simple, so feel free to pledge now according to what ADD-ONS you would like, knowing we have taken steps to make the survey process as painless as possible.

At the end of most kickstarters there is a surge of people coming back to see how it went and jumping into the project late.  NOW IS YOUR CHANCE TO SHARE this project with your community, so LATE FUNDERS will be inspired by how much COMMUNITY is behind making miniatures for Kobold Press Bestiary a reality!!

Black Friday New Additional Add-On: Thursir Giant!!
over 7 years ago – Fri, Nov 25, 2016 at 08:01:55 PM

Happy Black Friday!

The Thursir Giant was another sculpt that we had made that does not match up with the art for Tome of Beasts, but how could we ever leave such a great sculpt on the shelf??   In celebration of a Black Friday Special that you dont even need to leave the house for we have decided to put the Thursir Giant up as a "Non-Stretch Goal" add-on. 

For an additional pledge of $12, you can add the Thursir Giant to your collection of Beasts!  This is a savings of $7 off of what the retail price will be, so you need to grab it now!  :-)

****To do this, you will need to adjust your pledge amount now through Kickstarter and increase your pledge by +$12.****  

FREE MINIATURE!!!
over 7 years ago – Tue, Nov 22, 2016 at 09:21:39 PM

When we started this project we had some sculpts that were done that were based on older artwork from Midgard.  A lot of those pieces got updated art, and so for the sake of having new shiny art, we chose to shelve some of the pieces we had sculpted and use only the art from Tome of Beasts for consistency sake.  

We have decided that because of your help, our campaign is going along so well, we are going to reward our backers with a FREE MINIATURE!!!   All of you will be receiving a Goblin of the Wasted West as an early thank you for the hard work and support you have shown the project!

Please remember to take the time to share this project or share the post from Effincoolminis Facebook page that I just made.  A $3 pledge gets you a goblin for free between now and Midnight on Black Friday!!

Missed the update yesterday!!
over 7 years ago – Mon, Nov 21, 2016 at 05:16:11 PM

We unlocked the Witch Queen and are $50.00 shy of unlocking the Snow Queen.   Someone do some add-ons quick!!!   :-)  Just kidding....but really not kidding!  

The next 3 pieces will be Baba Yagas Horsemen.  These are very important pieces to the Midgard campaign setting.   We are debating a couple of things since we are starting to get into the part of the project where we do not have sculpts.  The big question on these guys is do we design them as mounted on horses?  If we do that, then the pieces have a bit more of a limited use, as each rider will not be able to stand on his own.  

What we are considering is having them sculpted standing in "action" poses similar to the artwork.  If we go this route, we will commission 3 different horses that can be purchased as separate add ons.  Your input on this will determine how we proceed, so please take the time to comment on this update so that we can help tailor this project to what you all want!!  

Thank you all once again for your great support on this project.  

And now:Baba Yagas Horsemen
