The Tavshar Archon 15mm Mechas and Bundles Outlined

To be released last weekend in November on 15mm.co.uk the brand new range of 15mm Tavshar Mecha and bundles plus reaction forces for Loud Ninja Games to expand the Yandrassi collection of awesomeness!  If you missed the Introduction to the Tavshar Archon Mecha article by Eli Arndt with sketch by Sam Croes have a look and a read.  Upon release all of the codes will be HERE on the website.  Ain't this just the most lovely 15mm mecha you have seen recently!

"Archons are elite war machines, piloted by Tavshar that have reached the rank of Prime and shown their prowess in battle above other Primes, making them the elite among elites. Archon is not only the name of the mecha but also the new rank of those who pilot them. Each Archon selects its weapon load based on its mission or sometimes the preference of the individual Archon where command edict does not override personal choice. A mix of weapon types is common, allowing Archons operating in force to counter unexpected threats. Archons are most often tasked with providing heavy support to lesser troops alone or in small groups, but may be used as strike teams by themselves."

Above are two shots of IAF036A Tavshar Guardian Archon mecha built in one of its variations and pose and then painted by the legendary Sam Croes.  There are six different mecha choices and each has a different weapon load out and is very posable.  An advanced level white metal kit which is supplied with a selection of heads to use.  When built each stands 55mm to 60mm tall.

Wasteland Raiders, Rad Zombies and Road Wardens released by Loud Ninja Games

"The wastelands of the blasted future are a dangerous and crazy place where sanity and even life itself have been challenged and often destroyed by the powers that brought the world to its knees. These miniatures are designed to be used in any post-apocalyptic or science fiction setting where wasteland peoples and creatures have developed." 

 Loud Ninja Games headed up by designer Eli Arndt have released three new 15mm packs into the part of the range 'Wasteland and Mutants' on their page at 15mm.co.uk. They join not only the other packs in that part of the range but of course the Alien Encounters, Ikwen, Yandrassi and the Chuhuac with over thirty codes into total! Go HERE for the whole range and you can refine by search for only Wasteland packs if you wish. 

The three new packs are excellent for present day gangers, post apocalypse raiders, near future hunters and most anything else that needs weird and wonderful in 15mm scale. Highly detailed white metal miniatures sculpted by Eli Arndt. Here are the details. Go HERE. 

RAP030 Road Wardens 

This pack contains three different highly detailed 15mm scale white metal humans with pistols and a rifle all wearing light armour. Even in the wastes there are those who cannot abide evil. These brave men and women take up arms in the name of something more than simple survival and take to the roads dispensing justice. They are known by many titles but often go by a more classical, romantic title - Road Warden. All miniatures are supplied unpainted and without bases. 

RAP031 Rad Zombies 

This pack contains five different 15mm scale white metal radioactive zombies in various poses. Exposed bones, melting flesh and grinning skulls these are scary foes! In the wastelands and the ruins of the old world, there are those who have been so changed that even after death they continue to menace the living. Whether it is through strange energies, chemical cocktail or mutant virus, Rad Zombies now roam where man once dwelt seeking to feed their insatiable hunger. All miniatures are supplied unpainted and without bases. 

RAP032 Wasteland Raiders 

This pack contains nine different 15mm scale white humans in various poses. Crude weapons, scavenged firearms, punk style hair, rough clothing these are the guys that haunt the innocent in a nightmare future. In the shadow of the world before there are those who are so intent on survival that they leave behind all pretence of civility and community, choosing instead to make their fellow man their prey upon which they sustain themselves. Those who take to this life live as bandits, raiders, and much worse, banding together to use might to make their living as Wasteland Raiders. All miniatures are supplied unpainted and without bases. 

These new packs go excellently with the fearsome Terrorclopes and the helpful Wasteland Buddies as we as the not pictured here Mutants and Super Mutants in the range. RAP028 and RAP029 Sculpted by Eli Arndt and painted here by Sam Croes. Enjoy!

He has put up a great article with pictures and his own take on a possible future for Humanity that involves the Chuhuac. You can read it HERE. 

Painting Agency blog had another Space Raptor posting earlier this month called 'Daring Deep Space Dinos' which is also a cracking read. You can see it HERE.

Einar Olafson paints up the Ikwen

Sometimes a customer surprises you.  A pleasant surprise came to us at 15mm.co.uk last week when talented figure painter Einar Olafson sent me a link to some posts on his blog where he had painted up Eli Arndt's miniatures the Ikwen from the Loud Ninja Games range. You can visit Einar's first blog post on the Ikwen HERE.  Done off his own back in his own time Einar showed his vision of just what Ikwen would look like coming from an imagined dry desert and scrubland world.  The front views are above and the rear views below.

Visit Loud Ninja Games page HERE.  This is a refined link to show only Ikwen.

We offer the Ikwen sculpted by Roderick Campbell in packs and as a value platoon set as well which has a small saving.  The platoon is the most popular choice and the Ikwen are proving a favourite with those looking for an alien race to act as militia and poor seconds to richer more advanced invaders to fight a holding action against conquerors. Personally I see those invaders being another part of the LNG range the YanDrassi whose three alien race army look just the part for aggressive attackers of an innocent world somewhere in the galaxy.

Well done Einar!

Loud Ninja Games Chuhuac in Blue

The excellent space raptor range by Loud Ninja Games has sold many thousands across the world and I always look forward to spotting some examples of the Chuhuac painted up in schemes other than the official ones.

Mad Mecha Guy is the chap to whom these fetching in blue 15mm miniatures belong.  The pictures depict poses from RAP001, RAP002, RAP003 and RAP004.  Below you can see an example of the white armour scheme from the 15mm.co.uk website.  The difference is quite striking and the space raptors look very nice painted up in blue.  Well done MMG!

RAP012 Chuhuac Heavy Combat Cyberform released!

RAP012

As masters of biotech and biomech enhancement, the Chuhuac has long utilized lesser creatures, augmented by technologies, to supplement their military. Known as combat cyberforms, these living drones are not controlled so much as guided. Trained and skill wired for specific tasks, they are much more autonomous than many robotic drones and so require less direct handling and programming.

In the skies over the battlefield enemies are constantly under the scrutiny of many small cyberform flyers as well as the soaring specter of the "Kreeshac" heavy combat cyberform. with a wing span in excess of eight feet, this flying reptile is loaded with advanced long range sensors, target acquisition and communications equipment. Where the smaller, platoon-level cyberform flyers are tasked with localized, smaller unit support, they are networked through either their handlers or the Kreeshac cyberforms. Deploying a Kreeshac over the battlefield allows a greater network and longer reach for battlefield presence, essentially establishing an atmospheric communications satellite. Long range assets can even target off the information provided by the prying eyes of the heavy combat cyberform.

Now Released on 15mm.co.uk the latest addition to the excellent space raptor range from Loud Ninja Games.  Go HERE to see RAP12 Chuhuac Heavy Combat Cyberform.  This unique flyer is a great addition to your forces and if you have some of the Chuhuac in your collection it goes really well with the smaller combat form in RAP003.  Here is a scale shot alongside a space raptor trooper:

You can find the whole Chuhuac Space Raptor range HERE.

Additionally due to customer feedback and with permission from the guys at LNG we have added an option to the RAP003 Chuhuac Command pack allowing the purchase of a pack of six little drones.  This means you can get a force of the small Combat Cyberform as below.  A dropdown option in the menu from HERE will get you this new sub-pack.

Thanks for Reading.
