So lovely, but so expensive. Aargh! Not happening.
Photobucket has now re-destroyed my pictures, so the first half of my collected works thread is no longer working again. To see my website version of the campaign thread, with fully functioning pictures, please go to https://bigsmallworlds.com/

Not Empire related, but they are very well designed and might be of interest to some:

Sorceresses by puppets war - probably inspired by The Witcher games.

Good find! Some of them look quite badass.

Speaking of which, does anybody have a suggestion where I might find female heads with the faces half-shrouded? Like this famous lady: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:KitanaMKXRender.png

I would suggest just getting some heads and using greenstuff. Such a scarf is rather easy to do - even for beginners.

Statuesque models do some lovely female heads.

I've got a couple of sets coming out after the first of the year. One with elaborate hair and the other with carnival masks.

Thank you,

Hopefully the first two girls within the next two weeks. I have really struggled with the best way to sell them. At the moment I am thinking about selling them directly through the Facebook page. Annie Norman has graciously offered to sell them through her shop, but Annie is so busy I have had a hard time communicating with her.

I use http://www.storenvy.com for selling custom vinyl toys, painted minis, and art. If you just use basic functionality and decline being included in their Marketplace, it's totally free (minus your usual PayPal fees.) Easy to set up, you can track stock, print invoices, and get use of simple discount codes. If you sell via the Marketplace, they take a percentage, and if you want add-ons (more discount codes, marketing tools, etc.) you pay a fee.

Depending on your technology comfort level, you can also set up sales buttons right in PayPal, then copy & paste the code right into a web site, blog, etc. (Speaking of which, there are a few options for cheap & easy sites/blogs, if you're interested.

If you have access to website hosting with .php and SQL functionality, and a DB backend, I have code for a very nicely featured store I can let you have.

Thanks guys, I am painfully inept at webdesign. ZeroTwentythree, that sounds like it's worth taking a look at, I'll check it out.

I will also be taking some size comparison shots between my girls and the usual suspects and posting them soon.

Also, forgot to mention, there is a Storevy app on Facebook. You can add a Store tab on FB, and it will display items and "buy" buttons from your Storenvy shop.
