Apologies, Rewards and Future plans

Hello everyone,

As the title states, I owe you all an apology as I will have to skip July Hero. July release had 2 modular units (almost 3 counting the female Jesters) and truth be told I have been chasing releases for months now since my schedule got derailed in October 2021 due to illness. This is a step to reset the said schedule into something a little healthier with faster releases and that would also help me have some meaningful marketing chances to bring back the Patreon to his not so long ago former glory.

As a way to apologise 2 things will happen in the next few days. First I will offer the whole Eolian Guards range (almost a full army) for free as a welcome pack. Any current and new patron will of course have access to it. Second I will offer a legacy set from older releases every month to patrons who where active the previous month. I'll start this month with the Inquisition release very own Grigori "The mad Monk" crazy dready for all patrons active in July.

I also decided to change a bit my way of working. If you have been a Patron for some times now you know that I sculpt every piece as a unique creation, reusing mostly details parts only. From now on I will try to have one set of the monthly release to be a little more derivative of a previous set in order to stay within a proper scheduled release. This is already in the test as you will see in the next post with the Midnight Wyverns (Jet Pack Bois) already good to go to posing.

I thank you again all for your support and will give my best to continue offering minis you like and enjoy.

Cheers!

I have only been subbed for a couple of months and already have had more than my money's worth in STL files. Heck I've only printed off one set so far and they are tabletop busy. To be honest I can't keep up with the speed you put them out and forget to check when they go live. Also I concur, health first, everything thing else second πŸ‘

I think it's very wise to take good care of yourself and get yourself into a position where you're not feeling behind all the time I'm not going to leave anytime soon

I’ll second Vince here, I would love to see some pre posed models as well if possible. Great work you’re doing though, your minis come out looking fantastic!

Keep it up dude! You do amazing work and are one of my favourite Patreons! Amazing that you’re bumping the welcome pack and I hope you find a healthy balance between work and health!

Yea in action poses or stances like running/jumping/stabbing to lessen the frustration of putting together 20 guys.

If I may ask, by pre posed model you mean one part models?

Thanks for being so open. I am sure most people are fine with reusing assets when it isn't over done. With that said I would love more pre-posed models even if we have to manually support them.

Yeah, don’t cause yourself anguish. Ease up a little and relax.

No need for apology - you do great work - do what fits in the time you have. Been with you since day 1 and you've never disappointed.
