If there doing drones the Celerity needs to be done.
I don't set an example for others. I make examples of them.

And one I would be glad to get started.

I would love to do that, but issue might be sculpting cost and would enough be sold to make up the costs.

Speck, if I were to look into this bust more, would this be something that would be resin-casted rather than in metal? Or does that move out of IWM's comfort zone?

 Would Fan Funding be an option for Dale's Tundra Wolf and Legionnaire to be funded by?

I will have something posted soon for interest in funding some variants for Stormwolf and Amarok.

I am working with Mike to get some of the backlog released, molding room got delayed with other work a month ago.

Completely personal request: Include an option for funding something that's not a variant, please.

Since people have been asking, I wanted to see if there would be interest in the below two.

Gossamer VTOL
Celerity Done (I am inspired to check interest after reading Blood Will Tell.)

I am hoping to have more updates on pending FF web only in backlog soon.

If the Tribune is never happening, I suppose I can help with a Gossamer. It'll be my only FF for a VERY long time, though.

I voted for the Celerity a few times when it was in fan-funding polls, so yeah, I'm down to throw some money at it

Never done this, where do I go to sign up for the Gossamer?

Is the BA topic dead?  cause I would still like some Ogres for my Regulan forces.  Apparently I now need some Leonidas too.

Let me talk to some of the sculptors to see who might have time for these two items. Then I will create FF threads for them.

Think we need a poll and pick the top two. Gossamer, Tiger, Celerity. Anything else?
