KickStarter: "This is WAR!"

[Mdlmker]

Hi Folks,

 

David here, DLD Productions. We have launched out KickStarter, "This is WAR!" to take our existing 15mm futuristic/scif resin vehicles, and convert them over to plastic injection.

 

Why?

 

#1. Cost of the materials for plastic injection is SOOoo much less than resin.

#2. Mold life is 500,000+ runs for steel, verses 30-50 runs for rubber.

#3. Production times will increase 100 fold! 15 second cyclic rate for plastic injection.....resin, (depending on the weather), 5-10 minute...(that includes trimming off the flash and pour buttons, plus any pre-drilling that is required).

#4. Weight of plastic is sooo much less than that of resin castings. (thinking....shipping.....carrying the army around.....etc..)

#5. No more resin mess, miss-cast parts (wasted money and materials).....

 

So, there you go....this is something we have wanted to do in the past. We would like very much to see our 15mm line in plastic injection.....AND if this goes well, we will start on the 28mm kits as well.......ooohhh......the Albatross Dropship......in plastic.....yum!

 

Have a look around....take a look at our gameplay video......and we will see you on the battlefield!

Welcome to the forums David.

 

Theses look really great.  I do prefer 15mm or smaller for scifi stuff, as visually the ranges make more sense to me.

Stargrunt II is my current game of choice for infantry combat.
