Hey guys, Lots and lots of sculpting has been going on the last few weeks - all the Corinth models are done, and their masters have been cast and cleaned - I'm handing off all the masters to our moldmakers on Monday, along with the latest batch of greens. Check them out here:

You'll notice there are a couple Corinth models included here, their castings did not turn out well, so I repaired them and we're going to make a new set masters. It's a pain, but a necessary one to have the best models in the end! As soon as we get the mold back they'll go into production, and the book will follow after the Corinth wave.
Sculpting on the Mycenean Chariot now comes to a close, as we now have a complete cart, crew, and horses! I'll get an assembled photo once I get the driver back (in the pic above). Hopefully you guys will like the end result!
The sculpting for the "Gates of Troy" release is also underway - now finished are the Trojan chariot hero in heavy armor (in the photo above), the War Altar Priest and litter bearer, and the Trojan Temple Guard pose 1 (for the Seer.) My arm has healed up to the point that I can now work without problems - it's still tingly in the fingertips, and will likely never be back to 100%, but at least I'm back in the game.
I know we're way behind on this stuff, and I'm 'burning the midnight oil' to get it all done. I've been trying to complete all of the sculpting before the year is out - there are now less than 20 miniatures to complete, out of around 150 parts at the beginning of the project. That is huge, the end is in sight and I'm trying to keep up the steam in the last few months. Obviously we won't have metal copies of all of these by then, it'll take some more time to get them all cast - but finished greens will be a huge part of the journey complete.
Thanks for all the support guys, the first part of this year was very depressing and worrying, and I really appreciate all the encouragement.
More sculpts to come in the days ahead - there are a bunch more on the table now, coming together as fast as I can squish them into shape.
Trojan Temple Guard, for the Seer - first of 2 poses:
Trojan Priest, which comes with the War Altar:

Here are some better pics of 2 of the chariots, now in metal and assembled. Now that I've put a couple of these together, I think my original plan of making the horses designed with tabs for the slotted bases was a bad idea - they horses end up on a higher level than the cart, and it is very fussy to assemble. I think the next horses I do may be redesigned on low-profile integral bases, that taper to a thin edge - which should be easy to just glue to a slotta. Here are those pics: Generic Chariot
Trojan Chariot

Stu, I'm very hopeful we'll have the Corinthians to our backers by CanCon (late January). We're just waiting on the molds to get completed so I can cast them, fingers crossed everything comes out OK.
I know you guys are eager for the book, I've been working long hours on the final rules additions (100 demigod powers are at last complete!) and I've also enlisted a couple forum members to help with the editing a proofreading. I'll make some of these sections available to any backers who want to help with the proofing and playtesting sometime next week. To go along with this, I'll start another thread on the forum dedicated to rules comments so we can keep this one about the miniatures.
Thanks everyone!

New pics, fresh from the sculpting table!
I changed pace a bit and started working on some new horses. These are going to be serving multiple duties, for the Amazon Cavalry as well as the teams for the Trojan and Mycenaean chariots (with a few changes). These are a little different from my old horses (in the Aegyptus range), a little more realistic... the old horses were sculpted about 15 years ago! I'm going to be doing at least 1 more base model (for Penthesilea), and then these will be converted a few times to slightly different poses. Hope you guys like them!

Just need to complete the Herald and a conversion of the Honor Guard, and Corinth will be done!

The last of the Corinth models - now complete! These still need to be molded, I'll be dropping them off to get their master molds made this week.
Swordsmen, these use the same bodies as the front-rank hoplites, with sword arms instead of spears:
Corinth Swordsmen
And the pair of Honor Guards - these guys are big bruisers, they stand a bit taller than the average warrior model.
Corinth Honor Guards
Last, the command models - the Herald and Musician. I need to get a photo of the backs of them, their cloaks look tame from this angle, but they actually look bit more dramatic from the rear, with long, flowing lines. Here's a front pic:
Corinth Command
Hope you guys like these! It took a while to get back on the sculpting horse, but things are going pretty smoothly now (knock on wood!)

Hey gang,
Sorry for the dry spell on the updates, I've been locked away in the sculpting room, trying to get a dozen minis finished. Here's a few to show off...
I mentioned a while back I had started on some horses - because I have to sculpt Chariots, Cavalry, and even Centaurs eventually, the horses had to be done early. Equestrian models are always very time-intensive (as you are basically sculpting 2 models instead of one) so it helped to have some completed horses to work from. While the horses were at the moldmaker, I got busy working on some parts for the upcoming chariots.
First up is the Trojan Chariot - this is basically finished, but it did not want to stay assembled so I just took a photo of the new elements without the base and wheels. There will also be another alternate front-plate, with a slightly different design.
Trojan Chariot
Second is the Mycenaean Chariot, this one is sort of a 'royal' chariot suitable for Aggamemnon or a Demigod or Hero, with the lion-gate emblem of Mycenae emblazoned on the front. I may also add some flags or tassels along the rail, similar to the Trojan Chariot. This one also shows the completed horse team pulling it - these horses will be used for all of the other chariots as well, with possibly some minor decorative changes on the Trojan variations.
Mycenaean Chariot 1
Last is the alternate Mycenaean Chariot, more of a basic warrior's model. This one was sculpted by Jeff Wilhelm a few years ago, and I just added the green wicker elements.
Mycenaean Chariot 2
The last of the Corinth models is finished now too, currently in the cooker - the swordsmen, Herald, and the last pose of the Honor Guard. I'll post some pics in the morning of these guys!

Re: Sauroth

 

Discussion avec Chris à propos des Sauroths

Do you have some concept / illustrations of the Sauroth? Do you have idea of miniature to use to represent Sauroth?
dim 15:43
The illustration used in your pdf is the best we have, I did a concept that des based the picture on, but it is very rough compared to the wargods art you are used to.
I would use a dinosaur of some sort, or perhaps a star wars dewback toy, with a 28mm howda added. Sauroth were intended to be hairy reptiles, if you imagine a camel crossed with a dinosaur.
They were intended to be part of the Asar army, and would have been featured in the 2nd army book we were going to do for Aegyptus (first Anubi, then Asar, and so on) with new specialists, troops, background, etc. Word got out on the wargods forums that were were working on these, and everyone freaked out and got angry with us (accusations of making people buy new rulebooks, becoming too 'games workshop', etc.) It was all pretty silly, but we decided to cancel the army books in light of our customer's hostile reactions to the idea. We actually had half of the Anubi book text completed. I think this was around 2003 or so.
The Sauroth were a fun idea, but perhaps a little too 'high fantasy' in retrospect. I may revisit them someday, but making an actual model for them would be very expensive, probably impractical, better served as a conversion project for players.

Excellent thanks for your indication!
How many members on the hodaw?

I would say 2 on the each sidecart, and maybe 4-6 on the top, and a mahout.
If I recall, my intent was that the side-baskets would be manned with warriors armed with spears, and the upper howdah would have archers. The side melee-armed warriors were there to keep opponents away from the sauroth's vulnerable legs and body, with the archers in an elevated position to fire, rather like a chariot passenger.

Same vision to these house rules. Excellent!

Réflexion
Taille du socle ? Plus grand que 150 x 100 ? J'ai peur que ça bloque les conversions possibles avec un si petit socle.
