Eli Arndt talks about Conversions in the SHM Range

SHM62 Varlish Envoy
One of the most prolific miniature designers in the SHM Range on 15mm.co.uk has posted up an article on his own blog 'I See Lead People' (I know great title!) all about his work in the range.  Eli Arndt has created many unique designs and new alien races from the Vergans to the Prang (more on them next month) and his Starport Denizens selection too.  You can see them all by clicking on the link to our website.

SHM20 Vergan
This sculpting blog post focuses on conversions of his existing Vergans and Burgansian along with the Calamite Preacher into new and different versions or new and different species.  It is a very interesting read and well worth a look.  Not only for the modelling but also for the thought that Eli puts into the names and cultures that these 15mm science fiction sculpts represent.

Go to the blog post HERE.

Working with Eli is always fun for me, he is a really nice guy.  I am proud to have been the one to give him the chance to put miniatures that would otherwise not have existed into wargamers hands the world over.

15mm.co.uk is moving to a new Website!

New Logo, New Website!
15mm.co.uk is moving!  We are about to move our website and email accounts to a new service provider and system.   This will greatly improve what we can show you (we have a LOT of new products ready for release in the run up to Salute 2014) and make us more effective for offering deals, viewing on mobile devices and blogging too.  While the process of moving should be painless we do need to tell you all some information.  So please read on.

The process will begin on Wednesday 19th February 2014 at 8pm GMT and we estimate it will all be complete within fourty eight hours.  However it may take up to a week.  We will let you all know once the shiny new site is up and running.

We will be deactivating our payment gateway and current website and email system from that time.  Please DO NOT email us on our normal email address during this period as we may lose your email in transit.  All orders placed with us will be filled and dispatched as normal and all email already in progress with us will be answered by our proxy.  Our sister brand www.theionage.com is going to help us out during the transfer with our email as a proxy.  If you want or need to contact 15mm.co.uk during this period please email us on info@theionage.com and they will pass it directly onto us and in turn we will respond by that email address.

Lastly once the new website is up and you can see it please delete all your page links to parts of the current website as they will no longer work and check your computers cache too.

Its an exciting time and you want to ask me something please do it in the comments below as well.

HOF Alien Greys by Zrune Lord

Zrune Lord's Grey Army!
I got an email at 15mm.co.uk from a charming fellow by the name of Angelo who goes by the name of Zrune Lord online.  He has a great blog called 'Picts from the Front' on which he continues his adventures in 15mm and 28mm science fiction wargaming and terrain building.  I had a look around and its a fine blog to read with a lot on it.

He wanted to show me his love for our HOF 15mm Grey Aliens which are one of the highest selling lines we have and I liked his work so much I wanted to share it with you all.

Scratch Built Mecha with officer from HOF49
Grey Warhost is the name of the blog post and follow the link to read it in full.  It features a lot of images like the ones used here but also some humour and scratch built mecha and terrain.  Nice work!

Death to all Humans indeed!
