Intriguing. The Templar is amazing for its detail; it's becoming more and more tempting to secure the core 4 miniatures from this release. I checked out the wormlings, and they remind me more of Cthulhu mummies than anything worm-like. Still, the Far Realm can always use some odd additions to further their madness!

They really need to give the sculptor's name when they post the greens. It's like announcing a book without mentioning the author.

 

But yeah, I think the Greens will get a lot of people on board who weren't fans of the concept art. Which, while I like Cheyenne's work, I kinda understand. It's pretty stylized, which makes it a little tougher to imagine how the finished mini's going to look.

As noted earlier in the thread, Bob Ridolfi is the primary sculptor, so unless someone else is listed, it's his work.

Very productive, that man. Doing a helluva job, too.

I caved with the new stretch goals.

 

On the sculptor thing I guess I don't see the need to say who the sculptor is every time when the Project FAQ clearly states who the sculptors are.

 

Also the greens look great, and the additional minis coming in the Bones set plus Bombshell Babes will give me a great collection for the game.

Yeah, his work is awesome. He's done many of the current Savage Worlds line.

 

And as an point of clarification, sorry if it wasn't clear about Bob doing most of the sculpts. It occurs to me what seems self-evident to some, isn't to others. We'll try to be clearer on those points.

 

Thanks again for all the support!

I figured, but it bore clarifying.

 

I'm just saying, look at it from the point of view of someone who's not totally familiar with Deadlands or Pinnacle. They don't know what to expect. That's why I've been pushing you guys as hard as I have been about getting the information on there. Cheyenne's art, while awesome as always, is very stylized, and doesn't really show what the final mini is. A mediocre sculptor might give you no more detail than is in those drawings, which would make a pretty poor mini. Letting people know who the sculptors are gives a much better idea of what the final quality will be. Especially when you have awesome sculptors like Bob and Sandra. It's a little like trying to drum up interest in a book, and not mentioning to anyone that Shane Hensley's working on it. You have two of the best sculptors out there. Use those names. People who already play SW and are familiar with Pinnacle are going to come in with some goodwill. People who don't? You've got to earn it. You're doing a great job correcting those mistakes, but keep working on it. Get those names out. Show off those greens.

 

Speaking of, I notice they're not on the mainpage. Put 'em up! That's going to be a major factor people will have when deciding whether or not to back. Don't make them hunt for it. Again, think about it from the perspective of that mini-collector browsing Kickstarter, or following a link from someone. What, on your main page (which is all you can count on him seeing) is going to get him to pledge his money? You've got some great minis coming from this, but you're not doing as good a job as you could of showing people.

 

Finally, and this is more for your next Kickstarter: Make the header video more informative. The one you have now is good for drumming up some interest, but it doesn't really tell someone who watches it what the Kickstarter's actually about. It would work better if you were using it for a Kickstarter for the setting book, but here you're trying to sell the minis. Show them the minis. I cannot stress that enough. Show them what they're getting as best you can, and convince them they want these minis.
