The Creature Caster First Wave Fundraiser Kicks Off
April 21, 2014 by brennon
Creature Caster have launched their Kickstarter for the first wave of miniatures that certainly have a dark twist to them. See what you think of their Demons and Dragons on offer below...
Starting things off we have the Demons and I think the two favourites here would have to be the Pincer and the Warrior. I'd love to see these towering over the battlefield looking to smash all their enemies out of the way but I understand that most of us will end up using these as display pieces. It's certainly going to be a test of your painting skills to get them coloured up.
Of course the Demons were cool but the real spice here are these Dragons. I do love me some Dragons and I think they would look very nice sitting on my mantlepiece. If anyone wants to put a pledge in for me then that would be grand.
The team have already raked in a massive amount of funds for these models and that means we'll probably end up seeing another wave and another Kickstarter in the near future. The campaign only runs for twenty or so days as well so keep an eye on it!
What do you think?
That are some amazing miniatures. Might be the first Kickstarter i’ll back!
It’s quite interesting, but I wish they’d offer a real dragon (i.e. without a saddle… not a tamed whelp !)…
I suppose you could do a bit of work on the saddle area and remove it but yes, I agree! Less tamed dragons and more wild ones!
BoW Ben
You’d need to remove the saddle/howdah, file off the straps, resculpt all the scales where the straps were, and completely sculpt new dorsal scales in the exact same style as that 3D sculpt, possibly changing the stance a little (because the dragon now isn’t carrying anything, so muscles don’t tense teh same way).
No thanks ! I’d rather buy a more suitable dragon, if anything.
There is talk in the comments section that there may be a replacement part for the dragons which removes/hides that section of the model. It it likely to come in once the kickstarter hits around £150K(ish), so it may be worth giving it a second look then. All the models are getting extra parts as the first week of the campaign.
Good point… Until then !
I know I should be be excited about the size and details of the models,
But all I take notice of, is the fact that they actually have a dragon with folded wings, (Or semi-folded at least) as opposed to the usual walking around with them stretched out like some kind of weird mating dance
Maybe it’s the fact that they have tried to hype this kickstarter for the last several months and it just kind of wore off, before they even got started.
Some nice looking toys in there
very tempted to get the 4 demon pack
Nice dragons, but I still prefer Mierce’s Angrislaug as my penultimate dragon.
Indeed, but these look bigger.
Some very nice models and in Uk Sterling reasonable price – but got so many other things on atm I going to have to miss this one – vulture deamon is the choice model though
They will need to do a Nurgle demon to complete the set.
Perhaps a extra goal like the dragon parts?
very nice particularly the pincer prince he’s a big brute to.
Just a heads up to anyone interested – riderless driagons have just been unlocked on the kickstarter, and a treewoman miniture will be coming soon.
