Good to see more Ebbles creations.

These very nicely play to the strengths of paper models.

Saw one of these this morning seeing my son off on a trip. Dean

I have a copy of the Frontier Farmstead, and several of the other models. They are really great little kits to put together. Good luck with your new venture. Does this mean you aren't with WorldWorks (?) anymore?

Any chance these could be printed for 15mm? I have your old convoy series in 15mm and would love these in 15mm.

Rodrick Campbell: Thanks!

Doug: That's one reason I like to work on fictional subjects--it means I can design them for the medium.

Dean: grin

Littlearmies: I'm technically still a part-timer there, but in practice, I haven't been actively involved with WorldWorksGames for a few months now. I missed doing it all myself and having the direct, personal customer interaction that I used to have when running my own business. I also wanted to branch out into other things like 3D printing and scratchbuilding bits.

DinOfBattle: I haven't tried building any of these models in 15mm, so I can't really give a solid answer either way. If I had to guess: I think the tug might be fairly doable at half scale given its bulk and lack of tiny parts, the ground handler somewhat less so due to tolerances, and the Zoom would definitely need some serious simplification to remain buildable at half scale.

I hadn't seen this the first time around, but just ordered a bunch, I like the buildings in particular.

I do sci-fi in both 28 and 15mm, the latter only very recently, so I'll try printing at half scale and see what happens. I've had ok luck with other projects doing that – though I'm wondering where I'll find space for copies of everything in both scales!

I'm very happy to see these back. Well done.

boy wundr x: I appreciate the business! I'm right there with you on the storage issue. I think I'm going to have to make a trip to IKEA and see if they still have those Detolf cases.

Sir Samuel Vimes: Thanks!

Lovely! But you need a brain to put them together and I am all out at the moment.

Combatpainter: I could surely use some brains myself, but I'll have to settle for coffee. grin

So glad to see Guncrawl back. It's been frustrating telling others about it while it's been off the market.
