Heresy Miniatures: 28mm Sci Fi Kickstarter
Heresy Miniatures suchen auf Kickstarter Käufer für Sci-Fi Minis.
This campaign is to raise the funds to bring back into production a rather nice, if slightly eclectic mix of sci-fi 28mm miniatures that were produced by Jed Norton, formerly of the now-defunct Antenociti’s Workshop. It’s a briliant little range of various civilian, law enforcement, assassin, trooper and government operative types that was last marketed under the banner of Fate Amenable To Change (aka FATC).
I am raising the funds to pay for the new moulds (a dozen needed for the figures in this campaign, 30-odd for the whole range), and the metal to cast them with, which is not cheap at the moment! metal prices have gone up a lot but I want to get Jed his money asap and don’t want to rely on a 3rd party caster to do these for me, I will do the work myself for maximum turnaround speed. I have 20 years experience moulding and casting miniatures in white metal and high production quality standards!
You can find the initial miniatures I wish to bring back into production in the images below – apologies for lack of large photographs, this is because when Antenociti’s Workshop suddenly went into administration earlier this year, all access to the original files was lost and I don’t have painted figures yet, just the master castings . Some of the larger pieces will be too expensive in metal at current prices, and will be produced in polyurethane resin instead but mostly al these figures will be white metal. Figures may vary from the pictures slightly as I am in the process of improving some of the details, giving them bums or chests or elbows where needed, reducing the number of parts down on some of the needlessly multi-part civilians, and general little tweaks to improve the end product.
I only intend to run this campaign for the first half of the range as I don’t want to overload my schedule – I’m a one-man business and it’s better to kickstart only as many models as I can definitely get out by Christmas! I am aiming for October shipping for the metal figures involved. If there is a large demand for the resin figures such as the Komodo, later pledges may overrun into Christmas and The New Year as resin takes ages to cast by hand.
PLEASE NOTE:
- All of the figures will be supplied unpainted and unassembled with blank plastic or resin bases. They will require superglue to assemble, They should be undercoated with a suitable primer, before painting with your favourite acrylic paints.
- Shipping will be charged after the campaign, when your pledge is ready to ship, please don’t add it now!
- All new replacement moulds are expected to be completed by September ready for casting and packing in time for October 2022
- This campaign will not begin to ship until October 2022, i.e.after the previous campaign (28mm Ghouls Zombies and Goblins) has successfully completed (expected to be completed in August) but you can add a pledge from this one to one from that that one if you are still awaiting a pledge and I will combine shipping from the two campaigns into one box. Let me know if you wish to do this via the private messaging system!

Resin kits take time to cast by hand so please bear with me if this proves massively popular! the first 50 should be done by October, hence the Wave 1 allocation in the Rewards section.

Die Kampagne läuft noch 5 Tage und ist finanziert.

Heresy hat mal wieder ein paar schöne Sachen in Petto! Ist der Inspector ganz rechts John Cena? 😛
Allerdings frage ich mich ob beim Hoverbike Miri die Figur samt Bike tatsächlich von diesem dünnen Bein getragen werden kann.
Ich seh das schon biegen/brechen.
Da landen einige Sachen auf meiner Wunschliste.
Leider keine Info ob EU-frindley, von daher ist der KS nix für mich, warte ich eben bis die regulär in deutschen Shops verfügbar sind.
Immer schön, wenn alte Ranges ein neues Zuhause finden.
Die „28mm“-Figuren beim Komodo müssten von McVey sein und zumindest die Restic-Variante aus dem KS war sehr klein, vlt eher 25mm?
Das sind in der Tat Samaritans aus Sedition Wars, allerdings sind die nicht Teil des Kickstarters sondern nur als Größenvergleich aufgeführt.
War auch eher als PSA gedacht: Die Vergleichsminis sind vermutlich kleiner als 28mm.
