Greetings from the Production Team

Hello Creature Caster Backers! We at the production facility just want to say a big thank you for all your patience, support, commitment, and contribution to the Creature Caster Kickstarter campaign. Rest assured everyone on the team is fully committed to seeing this project to completion and we are excited to be producing some of the best models in the industry. It is our intention to send you some quick updates from the production facility on a biweekly basis (every two weeks), and this is the very first one! Even better these updates will be coming in addition to those provided by Jeremy so you will be getting updates even more often than this!!!

Casting the Best Models Ever

Just looking at the models it’s easy to see the quality and care that has gone into sculpting these amazing miniatures. Everyday we are blown away with how cool these minis are! Now that the models are in full production it our desire to see that same quality in the final product. This means not only faithfully recreating the originals down to the tiniest detail, but also doing everything we can to use the best materials available and perfect our casting techniques. This means that we use the highest quality resin, that is perfectly formulated for miniature production. To this we add a slight tint to give the grey color that most of you are familiar with. The unique specularity of grey resin really makes the details in these miniatures apparent, before they are even primed and painted. The mold lines on these minis are really minimal as you can see in the bits pictures below. These models are extremely dynamic and occasionally a small amount of webbing will exist on some of the more complex pieces. Extra care has been put into reducing this effect, often remaking the molds with additional keys to provide reinforcement. The end result is that what little webbing exists is cleaned up simply and easily, often times with just a paint brush. We are exited to share more tech details on these models in future updates!

Pictures

We think pictures are always the most exciting part of any update, and we promise you that every Creature Caster Production Team update is going to include some pictures. While no one from the team is permitted to take the miniatures out of the facility until we are ready to ship, members of the team have been painting and assembling during their lunch breaks, and some have gone so far as to stay after work so they can spend some quality time with these beautiful sculpts. While we aren’t able to match Jeremy’s skill with a paint brush we would be happy to share images of our enthusiastically amateur painting, if you guys are interested. Please let us know in the comments. As suggested by one of the backers (Thanks Adam) we will be showing you pictures of the bits for each model as you should expect to receive them and the assembled versions. So without further ado take a look at the bronze level miniatures!

Vote on the Next Model

We would really like your input as to which model will be featured in our next update. To this end we have created a strawpoll for everyone to vote on. We decided to have no limit on the number of times each person can vote. We want people to be able to adjust their votes if their favorite model falls out of the running, and also to get a measure the enthusiasm and fanaticism that each of these models rightly deserves! This is our first time running a strawpoll so please let us know what you think in the comments. Vote away, and may the best Creature win!!!
