Poll for March
Added 2022-02-03 14:11:46 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
Time to change a new theme, let's go!
Due to having seventeen (wow) more themes to sculpt, i've decided to slightly adjust the way themes will be chosen.
You can always use this spreadsheet for reference of full list, if you don't see anything you want in it - write it in comments!: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12bgezooFsQWxeSnxMqR5lKQDSDYxBPrf_8B4fVUScg4/edit?usp=sharing
All my polls are held in a bit complicated, but more fair way to my opinion: Initial poll will have several subjects and if none of them will reach 50%+1vote, I will make second round with only two post popular choices. A bit like during elections, yeah.
Themes for this month are:
1. Eastern European criminals and thugs (suggested by Da kine, twisted by me)
This set took the 2nd place for two months in a row, wow!
I want this set to be a bit of something interesting and contrasting to my earlier sets, so they'll wear sport pants (cheeki-breeki yeah) and MA-1 bomber jackets (which were super popular among "certain people" in post-USSR)
For Corporal it will be four guys with two Makarov pistols and two AKS-74U.
For Sergeant, I can add extra poses or something else as requested.
2. Covert/Overt operators (suggested by ArturX)
Continuation of low-profile line, these will be useful in playing around small-scale shootouts as a characters.
For Corporal it will be three models with pistols in two variants (one set of legs, two sets of torsos).
For Sergeant, one more model (maybe with SMG or AKS-74U or M4CQB?) in two variants.
3. Russian Internal Troops in Chechnya circa 1995
Set intended to supplement my existing line, this will be revolving around the Internal Troops of Russia.
For Corporal it will be four guys with AK-74.
For Sergeant, I will add AK-74 w/GP-25 and something else (we'll see) and some iconic helmet of your choice with a set of heads.
4. Bundeswehr + KSK Reinforcements
Obvious - addon to existing line
For Corporal it will be two BW and two KSK models with G36/GP and MP-7 respectively.
For Sergeant, we can discuss?

Yay for the Thugs <3 and I agree with ChargeDog! some expansions for a fulls quad would be great as future randomized options

2022-02-03 21:11:55 +0000 UTCI am in three modern miniatures patreons and every time there is a poll, the choice is for some kind of "civilian armed with military weapons" You can get that look by simply painting a uniformed soldier as wearing blue jeans and a sweater under their tactical gear. Pretty much any modern uniform can be modified to look like some dude wearing army-surplus intermixed with comfy civilian wear. But if I wanted for example 1980's Stassi border guard, 1990's uniformed Russians, or modern Chinese marine corps, I cannot do a simple headswap conversion to take a civilian and easily make them a uniformed soldier. Yes, "Armed criminal" is popular for a reason, but I can readily make anything but someone with epaulets and breast pockets into an "armed criminal" with a head swap and some garnish colors.
