Project Cornelius Update

I've been busy working on 'Project Cornelius' lately as well as the ever growing commission list. To make it easier for all of you lovely people to keep up to date with progress and let you have your say I thought I'd resurrect the facebook page. So pop along via the below link and feel free to give it a like. I'll be adding giveaways and all sorts on there over the next few months. 

Project Cornelius

Over the last few months I'm sure you've notied me going on about 'Project Cornelius' on here. Well things are changing and and the whole project is getting turned up a notch. We have decided to start up a new blog dedicated to 'Project Cornelius' with all of its news and updates. I will still put a bit up on here every now and again if something big is happening but for the most part head over to the blog.  So if you're interested in steampunk, miniature wargaming, boardgames or any of the bits you've seen on here please take a look and share the word. Lets aim for that kickstarter. :-)

Rise of the Zombot miniatures

I have some more progress on Project Cornelius for you today folks.  As you may or may not know I have been busy sculpting Zombots and other bits as well as working through the rules lately. I have also been putting a lot of thought into the other models needed for the game. For example the police and general soldiers. To that end I have decided that it would be silly to try reinventing the wheel as there are so many totally awesome miniatures out there already.  I had a good trawl through the internet and found a some models that fitted perfectly with what I had in mind. After speaking to various companies and getting a few on board I thought I'd share them with you all. Below are the companies that I have been dealing with and if you click on the links you'll see that the models are simply awesome!! I'll put more details on the blog of exactly which ones are being used for what etc but for now take a look and enjoy.

Project Cornelius Update

After what seems like an age things are starting to move on more quickly with 'Project Cornelius' both the comic and the game are making some steady progress. The big push at the moment however is on the game. This mainly due to the fact I'm no longer doing it on my own which is awesome. A friend and fellow illustrator/geek Steve Beckett is on board and between us we're charging on ahead. 
Today has been all about sorting through the miniatures needed for the game. To start with at least, I don't plan to sculpt all of the models myself when there are perfectly good examples out there to be had. I'm sculpting Zombots and a few other characters but I'm trying to source other models that can be used for many of the characters. For example the British soldiers are from Black Pyramid Gaming and the police men are from Artizan Miniatures. 
On top of all this I have been rewriting and adding to the first draft rules which will be at a playable stage very soon. Watch this space for more updates.
