This is one of the latest editions to the Mid-west's finest Pirate game recently ran at Recruits. I was very lucky to work with a few new companies to get some of their products out on the table before Official public release. This beastly beauty charmed its way on to the table leaving flotsam and jetsam every where it went. The Kraken can be purchased from Rob Watson of Immortal Realms. Rob uses two mediums to cast, a close celled foam akin to Nerf (tm) and a clear resin that makes the water splash at the base look incredible. Check out his site at: link
Thanks Rob for all the hard work you did to get the Kraken in my game. More pictures here: link Wingnut

That's super cool! If they are made with flexible foam, it should be easy to push a piece of wire down the length of the tentacle so you could bend and pose it. What scale is the ship? |

Gonna need a bigger boat!!! |

The Elk Hunt is the 28mm Brig by Old Glory. He makes them to order both Resin and Foam. The largest tentacle is over a foot tall. Wingnut

Oh my, I just had a day dream about the reaction I would get from the local
difficult
gamers. The pedants would just GOBBLE!!! I don't care what size they are
must have more donuts !!! |

The tentacles are cast from either solid resin or Foam. They are designed for 28mm and range from 4" – 14" in height. They are quite large and very durable. |
| Watchtower78 | 03 Apr 2012 6:35 p.m. PST |
So about 150 for the set of tentacles without the head? |
| Whatisitgood4atwork | 03 Apr 2012 7:07 p.m. PST |
Ohhhhh
nice. I don't do naval but I may have to get one for my SF gaming anyway. It can be
um
a terrain piece, or something. |
| wingnut | 03 Apr 2012 9:32 p.m. PST |
It would be a really nice Sand dwelling monster for some far-away desert planet. |

Watchtower78 – Ya that's about right.. More depends on which tentacles you want.. mostly large or a mix. Currently there are 8 different tentacles
I have still to post the water bases.. Been waiting to finish the new ones.. |

I had a great time playing with these tentacles as wingnut and I got ready for the con and they paint up beautifully – Great work Highlander042 |

| wingnut | 08 Apr 2012 12:50 p.m. PST |
Sky the Kraken prices are here. link |
| skyking20 | 09 Apr 2012 6:03 a.m. PST |
Thanks. I am going to pick up a few pieces. sky |
| ARMY Strong | 09 Apr 2012 2:17 p.m. PST |
Nice but prices are out the roof! |
| Highlander042 | 11 Apr 2012 12:40 p.m. PST |
People spend $10 USD – $15 USD for a 28mm miniature an inch tall all the time. How is $16 USD for a resin one that's hand crafted and 12 inches tall out the roof? Just wondering. :) |

We've interviewed Robert Watson of Immortal Realms on the Bring Your A-Game site. It is here: link For those interested. |
