...ok, so the name\'s a WIP but here\'s the real info.

Hi, Ari (Provoke_Me) and myself (Nick) have set out to try and make a name for ourselves. We’ve got some concept art and a few minis started, but would like to get into private minis. We’re thinking along the lines of putting a specific person into mini form, or create up your dream mini. Ari would cover the concept art and once the customer’s happy with it, it’d come over to me to get sculpted. So it’d truly come out to be exactly what you’d envisioned.

We hope to get a web page some time in the future, but until then we’d really like any feedback you could give us. We know we’re not Rackham or anything (and our prices would reflect it) but here’s our progress so far.

A specific face of a CmoNer you might recognize (minus his glasses).

The idea was to get the sculpt in between the real face and the concept art.

And our second example is a work in progress of a goblin made up from some concept art.

So whether you want to have yourself sculpted into a character, or just have a dream mini made up, that’s what we’d be here for.

Thank you for your replies and wish us luck!

Sounds like a good idea. Have you decided what you are going to charge? I hope everything comes along well.

mini us\'es!!!!

this is a great concept!!

err... would it be outside the boundaries of common ettice.....eticett....er... politeness to inquire as to a round-about price for your collective services??

a truly great idea!

 

[tidoco2222]

I could see myself in miniature I think that I\'d look good as an Ogre as I think that best suits my character, big greedy and loud.

 

[douglasgreen]

Great idea!!Good luck in your endeavo.....endevo...chosen niche market:flip::bouncy:

 

[marineboy]

lol!...lol

Well, the price would really depend on what you wanted. If we were just sticking a sculpted head onto a bought body then it\'d be a lot less than if we sculpted the whole character. We\'re thinking it\'ll be more of a let\'s strike a deal type thing to begin with, before we get a feel for how much they\'re worth.

Normally one offs of a mini cost hundreds, but we know normal people can\'t afford that because they\'re not going to turn around and have it cast. But we\'re thinking somewhere between 30 and 60 USD.

 

[mickc22]

sounds good so far...
...now, if you could get provoke_me to change his name to Scratchy......

 

[provoke_me]

scratchy...

ummm...

anywho, is anyone interested?

 

[Trevor]

Its slightly different, but I was wanting some skull masters sculpted that I can then cast in resin for bases, scenery etc. I want different types of skulls, human, orc, beast, dragon etc. etc.

 

[marineboy]

...the price sounds right! and the service sound impecab... impeccibi...er... great!...

...lemme figure out what i need.....

will you also be offering remodelling service for for existing figures, i.e. adding details and changing existing details? if so, i got one for you guys.

 

[provoke_me]

@tidico: if you send me a picture i can draw something up to see if you like it.
@Trevor: for what manufacterer will these bases be used on. they all have slightly diffrent orc heads and the like.

 

[Trevor]

I just want generic skulls, but it would mostly be for GW with a little reaper, rackham etc.
I particularly want some big beast/lizard skulls to put on Ork vehicles.

 

[provoke_me]

i can do that

but since you are looking for GW. have you looked at the cursed company in the Dogs of War.
or the tomb kings. they have skulls and the like.
ill go visit reaper and rackham websites right now and see what kind of beasties they have.
PM me if you have further information of what you want and stuff.

 

[Itchy]

Been out for most of the day, but looks like Ari\'s been on top of it. If you can\'t find what you\'re looking for at GW or Reaper just give us a shout. We\'ll be more than happy to make your minis the best they can be

 

[provoke_me]

good morning!

@trevor: ive sent you a PM with a link to some skulls i drew up while i wasnt able to get onto the computer. most of them are just generic, horse, elephant, dragons, gorilla(which i hope to eventually turn into an orc)
if anyone else is interested to see what i did here is the link.

Hey guys, I\'d like to have a mice and a raven, in scale for a 30mm mini. Well, the mice a little bigger of corse,one should at least be able to notice her, but not as big as the rats you can normaly get. The raven with closed wings only the right one slightly open, the claws so, that he can sit on a slightly sloping arm.

 

[Ebonbuddha]

I would love to see the CMON regulars in miniature form. I would love to have a set that would contain my miniature, Dragonreach, Supervike, Margo, Red Dawn, Alexi_Z...etc...etc...etc

 

[provoke_me]

a mouse! thats going to be tiny
what do you mean by a sightly slanted arm? do you have a picture of a miniature with an arm like that as an example?
