 Hello guys, firstly thank you for taking the time to check out my project; High Fantasy Miniature Collection. 

The aim of the project is to expand my miniature line into well, an actual line rather than my current 3 offerings. My first 2 projects have been critical in deciding whether the business would be a viable venture, I am very pleased to say that I will continue to chip away at my own tiny little corner of the miniature market. 

Success with this project will set me up to continue to produce more and more fine scale miniatures for gamers and collectors, as a quite new small business I am heavily dependent on your support to continue forward, I am not a long established business with financial backing, when you back me on Kickstarter you are literally the life blood of Throne Down Games and I cannot express in words what it means to me as a small business, as an artist, as an individual, that you offer me your support. 

In this project you will find a selection of miniatures for your tabletop gaming, painting and collecting. The miniatures are 32mm fine scale resin with the option to pick them up in the larger scales of 54mm and a select few in 75mm, perfect for those who collect to paint and/or diorama build!

Going forward a select few will be available in 54mm and 75mm for retail along side the 32mm range.

I have a huge passion not only for miniatures but high fantasy, I hope you find something you like and perhaps a little bit different in my work than what you typically find in the miniature market! Thank you for taking the time to check out my project and I whole heartedly thank you in advance for any and all support you can offer me.

Early Bird

For this project I will be running an Early Bird for the £40.00, 10-4 pledge, the Early Bird will run until midnight the day following successful funding. The Early Bird grants the exclusive Story Teller miniature in 32mm absolutely FREE as a massive thank you for pledging early at this level. 

EB end Example; If the project funds at 20:00 on a Monday, the Early Bird will close at 23:59 Tuesday.

 Exclusive miniature - The Story Teller

For this project I have designed an exclusive miniature that will only be available as part of this campaign, this miniature will not be available anywhere else once the campaign has ended.

This exclusive miniature is FREE in 32mm scale for the 10-4 Early Bird pledge and does not count toward one of your 10 miniature selections as a massive thank you for supporting me at this level. 

This miniature is available as an add-on or one of your miniature selections for the Build Your Own, 5 for 5 and the standard 10-4 pledge.

The Story Teller; A theatrical mage who literally brings the pages of their story book to life!

Pledges

I have tried to build the pledges to give maximum scope for customization, from 1 or 2 mini's to complete sets, you choose how you pledge **this can always be changed during the pledge manager phase**

Build Your Own pledge is subject to a small price reduction from the future RRP, the 5 for 5 and 10-4 pledges are subject to further discount against the RRP and when pledging for stand alone miniatures, on top of the set discounts you can also add additional copies and the larger 54mm and 75mm scale miniatures at a reduced price depending on the initial pledge level.

All miniatures will be supplied with a simple 25mm flagstone scenic resin base, NPC miniatures will additionally be supplied with a 25mm wooden flooring scenic resin base, all 54mm miniatures will be supplied with the above in 50mm and likewise for the 75mm miniatures.

Pledge: Build Your Own

The perfect starting point to pickup a few miniatures you like the look of without the larger financial commitment of set pledges. To build your pledge please add £6.00 per 32mm miniature you would like, and/or £12.00 per 54mm miniature, and/or £26.00 per 75mm miniature. Miniature choice can be selected after the campaign ends through the pledge manager.

The miniatures

 

[Disciple of Sakura]

These look gorgeous. Are they going to come attached to these pedestal bases, though?

[SamuraiJack]

no.. All miniatures will be supplied with a simple 25mm flagstone scenic resin base, NPC miniatures will additionally be supplied with a 25mm wooden flooring scenic resin base, all 54mm miniatures will be supplied with the above in 50mm and likewise for the 75mm miniatures.

[Smokestack]

The Story teller would make a great swashbuckler with a right hand weapon swap. Pledged the 5 for 5 level.

[Disciple of Sakura]

I'm in for the Early Bird strictly because of that Storyteller miniature. I may or may not be able to stay in, depending on $, but these are really, really pretty minis...

[Smokestack]

Hmm, story teller is exclusive to this campaign. May get 2.

[WhiteWulfe]

I don't quite know what to think of that fennec.  The body seems rather wolf-like (or even like that of a red or swift fox), the tail seems too short, the shape of the ears seems more jackal-like, and I'm not too sure what to think of the added mane. 

 

It looks like a nice sculpt, but doesn't feel like a fennec to me. 

 

Thankfully, money is tied up in other places, but the rest of the sculpts are interesting too. 

[Disciple of Sakura]

I want that armored wolf. Then, all I'll need is a goblin that looks like this:

And I can finally play my Pathfinder Goblin Cavalier, Grimgrubgrot, and his wolf mount, Dag. On a mythical quest at the behest of the Holy Stump, and the holy magic mushrooms surrounding it.

[Gadgetman!]

Storyteller is a must have. 

 

The innkeeper doesn't exactly look like how you expect an innkeeper to look. 

Maybe he got a big bonus after a long military campaign, og is an adventurer who retired while still at his peak, and used his share to buy an inn?   

can't have been too long ago since his muscles are still so defined.

I had a half-orc NPC in a campaign who'd been an adventurer and retired at third level, using his wealth to buy a tavern. Seems like the perfect way to make some seed money (if you survive the Grue...)

[TDG]

Thanks for the post Jack you beat me to it!

@WhiteWulfe He's not strictly a fennec in the sense of being anatomically correct, for a start he is around the size of a medium dog, a wizard did it! Seriously though the sculpting just took me there when doing it, I get lost in it sometimes during workflow, it's supposed to be a whimsy high fantasy critter rather than an actual fox if that makes sense :)
@Gadgetman! He's a half orc, big guy, benches cask carts before breakfast.

Enjoyed reading your comments, all the best guys!

[Gadgetman!]

Well, I'm in.

 75mm Storyteller, 

54mm Arcanist, Dancer and Scribe. 

 

Sorry, the Alchemist really didn't do it for me.

Awesome thanks! Just seen your pledge actually, are you wanting 1x 75mm and 3x 54mm? If so, go for the 10-4 pledge rather than the BYO and it'll total £48.00 rather than £61.00 :)

I can't spell

[Loth]

Backed for story teller!

[Gadgetman!]

I try to avoid lowering my pledge...    

 

So I added enough for 32mm minis of them also.   

(That takes me up to £64)
