You can see the Americans from that Kickstarter here:
Brigade Games WWII Americans
The AWI kickstarter is in currently in process and has been funded. I believe that this is a different sculptor than the one who sculpted the WWII miniatures and I have to say I like the looks of these quite a bit. They are very similar in style to those from Fife and Drum although maybe not as "clean" you can see some of the Fife and Drum miniatures I have here:
Fife and Drum AWI Samples
and some painted versions here:
Fife and Drum AWI Painted Continentals
These look like they would fit in well with the Fife and Drum and the Perry Miniature plastics that I already have. If I jump in on this one it would probably be mostly for the British. I do wish they were going to do some cavalry with this kickstarter but I don't see any in the stretch goals.
I do need to mull it over but I think these are very good looking miniatures and would be worth jumping in on it. Here is the direct link to the kickstarter
Brigade Games American War of Independence
A look at some of the sculpts, note these are actual greens not digital renderings. The only thing I would like to see different is to have one of each of the command sets as core packs rather than stretch goals. And again some cavalry would have been nice to see.
Thanks for pointing these out. They are sculpted by Paul Hicks, who makes some pretty great figures. The basic rate of $11 for six figures is actually more than Perry figures (£7.5 or ~$9.98), but new sculpts are always welcome.
ReplyDeleteMore expensive than Perry, although their shipping charges can kill you, and in line with Fife and Drum.
