Last few Battle Armor that have been fan funded have been popular. What other 3145/3150 battle armor would people like to try and fan fund. The suggestions would form a poll later in the year.

Centaur and Taranis are the two that I'd really like to see.
-
Elemental II would be nice.

I'd like to see the Ogre and Wraith.

I really want to see the Seafox Battlearmor! Aquatic Battletech doesn't get enough love

I know it isn't power armor but I have always wanted a ejected mechwarrior

No...I mean in 6mm scale...So when a mech gets destroyed I have a ejected mechwarrior
-
That would be a figure that would be entirely too tiny and easy to lose. It would need to be small enough to fit inside a Stinger's head.

Maybe things like Davion or Kurita Infantry?

Just glueing a single one of them onto a base, could substitute a mechwarrior, i think
-

DITTO.
And DITTO again for Good Measure!
-

It would be the size of an infantry mini
-
Baphominiatures had some thiny 6mm pilots. But i would be happy to see something similar from IWM. Even a hexbase with ejected seat, parachute and pilot would be great.
-
Just noticed this . . .
Ogre
Amazon
CuChu
-
The Amazon BA has been out for a while, actually.
-
Hmm, I must have missed it . . . were the prominences not that noticeable?
-
Beats me. It's an online exclusive (like all Battle Armor these days).

Yeah . . . my store orders directly from IWM now so I can get all sorts of neat stuff w/o worrying about shipping and support my FLGS too. Its win win . . . I want one of those, and to paint it as Wonder Woman . . . but that is some detail I probably cannot reach.
-
What about something other than battle armour? Maybe a warship?? :D
-
Because this is the "Suggestions for future Battle Armor Fan Funding poll" thread? ???

While GRUD's answer is the correct one, to answer casperionx's questions, you have to have enough people that want it or finance it directly. Warships probably aren't a big enough seller to warrant regular production either.
-
IIRC, somebody solo-financed a mech for prizes at his tourney. No idea what happened to the moulds.
But Speck is the person to talk to there, not this thread.
-
They were not stored if I remember correctly. (This was the MWDA Spider with mace)
The financier got all 300 copies of the mini. Granted it was only a custom arm (maybe two arms)
-

Yeah, I'm into this.
Ideally a couple of variations on mechwarriors. I've painted up a Davion Infantry or two as mechwarriors before, and I have a couple of Nighthawks ordered. Maybe a "non-combatants" set. Techs, medics, officers, Solaris fans... all that stuff. But 28mm Mechwarriors. Yes.
Armour-wise, gotta be Cuchulainn at the top of my list.
-
But 28mm Mechwarriors. Yes.
Good news! https://store.ironwindmetals.com/store/index.php?cPath=16_44_245&osCsid=bjo039nnmh2ei5evpkldqa6jo7

I remember reading that the financier also requested the mold be broken so it couldn't be reused.

Something either that or he has it. Either way. Not available to IWM.

Yup. I meant 6mm. So those but smaller, please.
-
I've never heard of a MWDA Spider w/ a Mace.
Interesting.
Not sure I want a mace for my Spider, but, would look cool like he's going to smack you in the head.

Very interesting, I like the JJ effects on that mini.
I can't help but notice that the artist who did the unit symbol on the web page must have reading issues.
blazing greeneyes,
Oops.

I wish Camospecs was still an active site.

Don't we all. :( Rebuild is still in "victim of RL time-suck" mode.

That, and the image shows RED eyes. ???
-
Can't find a place to post something besides Battle Armor.
So I would like to put on the list the arms for the Novacat A.
Also I know warships are not suppose to be listed but the Newgrange Yardship needs to be done!
-
Post it in the regular IWM topic you might get more response.
-
How's about a decent Grenadier sculpt?
-
Already exists, looks great.
