Infamy and Guild Ball Join Forces for a Special Crossover Mini!
July 14, 2014 by dracs
Infamy:Welcome to the Big Smoke's Kickstarter has been doing really well over the weekend, with a couple of exciting new sculpts appearing and more on the way. However, one of the most exciting pieces of news is the announcement that they are working on a crossover character for the game of Guild Ball!
Ol' Harry here is a down and dirty hooligan, as at home scrapping in the streets of London as he is playing in a game of Guild Ball. The miniature will have rules for use in both Guild Ball and Infamy: Welcome to the Big Smoke, making him a pretty versatile miniature, something that is only enhanced by the way the miniature can be geared up to join a variety of different Guild teams.
This isn't the only crossover mini that Infamy have in store. Infamy Miniatures are part of the British Independents, a collection of miniature developers that also features Warploque Miniatures, JoeK Minis and White Dragon Miniatures. Alex of Warploque came up with this piece of concept art featuring a character they have called Captain Brindie.
Each of the British Independents decided to make their own version of the character for their respective ranges and Infamy's crack at him has just appeared as part of their Kickstarter.
Brindie has been modified to fit with the darker tone of the Infamy world and his fashion sense has been updated to the Victorian period, but he is still recognisable as the swashbuckling rogue that we can see in the concept. These renders promise us a highly detailed and beautifully sculpted miniature that will be available only as a Kickstarter special.
Which of these two prospective models are you most excited about?

@redben you sir owe me a new keyboard, this one covered in tea!
I really like the look of the infamy models in fact I have infamy’sTallulah arriving soon as part of the Arcworlde kickstarter rewards, I just can’t afford it, it seems like all the sales and kickstarters I want to be involved in are happening at the same time 🙁
Oh well back to the lead mountain.
🙂
I’m off to GenCon in a few weeks so I’ve just had to pledge in at £3 for now and I’ll move up to Massacre once the Pledge Manager is available. I’d have liked to have pledged for Wolsung, Zombicide and Nemesis too but like you say, all at the same time and can’t afford it.
I must admit that I have chipped in on this one, enough to get the exclusive Tesla mini, though the ones I’m really after are Holmes and Watson.
Holmes and Watson are high on my list too, though I’ll probably just buy them at retail in the next couple of months. I already have Talullah and will probably get Chee Chee too. From what’s been revealed so far in the KS my definites are both Teslas, Brindie, Mad Pete, Uncle John, and the chimp command. I’ll probably get Corvus too as MIKH might just be the second best trad sculptor in the business so I expect the mini to be awesome. He sculpted Holmes and Watson if anyone needs a frame of reference.
While my wallet will be relieved to hear that I’m going to pass on this KS (although I’m sure there are more just around the corner..) I am definitely going to forward this on to a friend of mine – he’s going to love that Brindie miniature!
..aaaand maybe I’ll piggy back on his pledge to get the Jo March mini too..
Had to go for this, the minis look awesome
The Suppressor has been revealed in all his glory in the latest update.
Infamy! Infamy! …
