Cat Dragon ala Smaug from Hobbit cartoon:)

I do not game much anymore, so my miniatures are either display,practice or sell on Ebay once I am done (I have limited space, so if I kept everything I build/paint I'd need a house just for display:( )

 

How does the selling go for you?  Is there a descent amount of interest for painted minis?  You make a profit at all?

I want to see if I can find some riders for the Wyvern and Griffin.  If so i could see myself getting 4 or 5 total for each. I think the apes would work well in a scenario with a rogue druid, so a couple few of those. Probably 5 sets total for Nagendra as well, I did the same for the hobgoblins in B3 and have no regrets.

 

Normally I buy just for gaming, but with all the dragons I got with B3 I am looking forward to doing DoD as a display piece.  Same with the big Wyvern, though that one may see some use.  Should be ready by then.

No.

Not necessarily. There's a lot they haven't shown yet. Heck, there's a lot they probably haven't even teased yet

 

Probably, it would follow their usual pattern.

So saw this over on the information thread:

Ron: Some cool stuff coming up. Ridolfi and Guthrie have some great stuff, Van Horne has some great stuff, Wiebe has some oft-requested minis, Jackson has some fun stuff and Chris Lewis has something coming that you all kind of requested, but with a twist.

COULD this be the "cat dragon" we have all been talking about:)

Honestly, I haven't sold in a while, so have no new data. As soon as I get some life issues squared away, I hope to get back at it full tilt. I have quite a few mini's in metal (well over 100), some mino's and skeletons I hope I find soon, and KS 3 core set so I have quite a bit to offer:) I have seen some sellers doing quite well, so if I make anything off it i'll be happy. I will probably just be selling more for space constraints more then anything else, and it's nice to give mini's a good home:)

Did they cause a crash of kickstarter for B2 and B3 like they did for B1?

 

Just curious. Was wondering if we'd have a repeat; upon further thought I doubt it.

[strawhat]

Just for grins and giggles, out of the core set, I am looking for:

• The dancer (#2)
• The vampire (#3)
• The witch (#19)
• Dire Consequences (#54-#56)
• Bedeviled (#72-#74)
• Wyvern (#81)
• Ape Attack (#83-#85)
• Nagendra (#86-#91)
• Female Fighters (#92-#95)
• Baba Yaga (#96)
• Small World Heroes
• Wraiths
• Narglauth
• Rocky the Red
• Tree of Despair
• Paint Set B
• Baba Yaga's Hut
• Modern Scenics
• King Cobra
• Blacksting--although I might call him "Vermithrax"

The bolded items are the ones that I'm pretty much guaranteed to get--either now or added on later.  Items, as they are broken down, may impact whether or not I can actually follow through on that.  The numbers have to work.  I may, or may not, add the others as funds permit.  Items that are red and bolded are already counted in my pledge.

Nah, that would be a whole bunch of Velociraptors :)  Speaking of which, we need some feathered Velociraptors in Bones. (Either as simple dinosaurs or as primitive, tribal, proto-lizardmen, think Neanderthal Man to the Lizard-man's more modern tribal nature; potentailly more culturally developed, but not as able to adapt to changes like say the "soggification" of their native range).

[redambrosia]

DoD will most likely be a display piece in my house. It might inspire some cool encounter, but like Tia-not, will most likely never hit the table. 

 

Kinda disappointed there won't be any mouslings, but with all the chibis, I think my need for cuteness has been fulfilled.
