Where are the female samurai?
No concept art or even a sketch?

@ Joerg: I found that strange as well. Lots of photos of painted minis from the existing range, but not even a concept sketch for the actual subject of the kickstarter?

Joerg Bender30 Mar 2019 10:05 a.m. PST

@ Torquemada: Exactly!
Sorry, but for me that's a no go :-(

If I have to go by the paltry picture they are showing, I'd assume they're going to be 'topless'. Like they say on Shark Tank, "I'm out."

One would indeed think that there would be some 'concept' drawings.

And what are "odda bugeisha"?

Poor English for "other" bugeisha??

Onna-bugeisha (|) are female martial artists of nobility status. They would fight along side samurai attached to their house. "Odda" could easily be a regional dialect pronunciation variant.

Accurate armour variants for females would be much more interesting than salicious figures. Don't really need a Kickstarter for the latter.

"And what are "odda bugeisha"?"

Female Japanese warriors with a heavy cold.
