I like my undead to be weird.

Fixed that for you.

Anyone here know what's up with the plastic landsknecht kit? Haven't seen mention of it for a few months, now.

I think they are working to have all the figures sculpted prior to starting the KS so that it can have a shorter delivery time.  It is taking a bit longer than expected to get it all together.  Stephan (the owner) just posted this update over on LAF on April 27:

Hi all

I know, I was very quiet with news on the plastic Landsknechts, but don't worry: news and pictures of them very soon! At the moment, I am talking with the sculptor about the frame layout and all the content we can fit in the box. Will tell you more next week!

Cool. The last thing I need right now is more landsknechts, but I'm gonna get some anyway.

Ditto.  Also, keep in mind that Pro Gloria Miniatures is pretty much a one-man show so its good that they are taking it slow and not getting overwhelmed.  Hopefully when they launch the KS is it will be really successful because of it.

The Assault Group previewed some cool characters for their Tudor Range. SHould work well for Empire and Estalia:

I like to call these Edmund Backstabber, Bald Rick and Lord Pershing.  :engel:

Lizzie doesn't look enough like Miranda Richardson to go with the first three, unfortunately :)

On another note; Miranda Richardson is a stone cold fox.

Pro Gloria miniatures ! The best landsknecht figures anywhere. Think 6th edition GW state troops for style.

Excellent paint job. Is it yours? The quality matches your other work, but not quite the style (at least not of your work I am aware of). 
It is not enough to have no ideas of your own; you must also be incapable of expressing them.

Wow, they're really cool, and fit the 6th ed style nicely. No weapons though?

They are openhanded to add weapons of your choice.

You could get some pikes/spears from Battlefield Berlin:

And you probably have a bunch of spare weapons from GW's multiple kits - just snip the hands off and attach at the wrist.

or wait for their plastics to be released

Some greens/3-ups could be seen at Crisis:




Pictures from the Brückenkopf news page.

yes you're right :) the following is not 100% certain to be made as renedra has the last words. in the box will be two different sprues (amount of sprues is not sure). one will contain 10 (!!) different bodies with options on pikes in different poses, swords and bucklers, halberds.
head options for swiss, german and middle-europe as well as diffetent swords for them and many feather options.
the command frame will include two bodies. one full harness the other semi-harness . options on banner. drum and many weapons.

questions? :)

Those who might be interested in 28mm miniatures for Ind might like checking out this company ...

http://indusminiatures.mybigcommerce.com/

They have a decent range of figures, including elephants!

And they have a 20% off sale going on through May 18th 2014, the coupon code is "INDUS20".

Resistance was futile for me, bought 2 elephants, and one each of the mahout, drummer, standard bearer, spearman, handgun firing, handgun at ease, plus two archers firing.  That way I can interchange the riders as needed.  With the 20% off sale, the total was $44.40 and that included a $6 flat rate shipping here in the States. :icon_cool: :::cheers:::
