We now have Andrea and the Doom Bunny! These were characters originally concepted for our feature vampire film Blooodwine. They would make great additions to any zombie apocalypse game.

Concepts


Robyn Haley has designed one of our upcoming releases the Sun Paladin.


I will be posting updates of the progress on this over on the forums as I work on it. Right now I am practicing on my 3D chops in ZBrush and this would be an excellent candidate for a digital model. You can follow along on my progress on the forum post over there.

September Events

NEWS

September is a busy month for the Bombshell Factory. We are working behind the scenes on lots of new things, one of which is the launch of our upcoming Kickstarter project to fund production of the ISW-69F Scout Ship. This will be an Epic Models release although it will be completely suitable, and have a future stat sheet, for use in the COUNTERBLAST Adventure Battle Game as well as the RPG.

The ISW-66F will be a multi-part kit cast in resin for easy assembly. It has been modeled in ZBrush and it is being finalized for printing. The kit will include several accessories and upgrade packs that will be offered through the Kickstarter project as well as an exclusive set of crew figures.

EVENTS

We are happy to thank our fantastic sponsors over at Kraftmark for supplying us with samples of ProCreate for this year's Sculpt Jam. We have only a couple of spots left so if you are on the fence about coming, or know someone locally who would be interested in honing their sculpt-fu send them here for the news.


_____________________________________________________________________

The last weekend of the September, the 27th, 28th, & 29th will be host to Clash for a Cure at the Waco, TX Convention Center. Bombshell Miniatures has been invited to attend and the Sculptdude will be onsite to offer sculpting tips and demos using ProCreate. He will also be lending his keen eye (albeit lens-covered) to help judge the painting competition. So pack up your Warjacks or  just come and cheer on the carnage for a good cause.



Counterblast - New Concepts

Keri Ruediger has been hard at work realizing some of our alien characters for COUNTERBLAST and making them tangible for the game. Here is a first look at some of the aliens that will be available as part of the Lancer faction and the Neiran Empire faction.

KitchenCon1

We had our first COUNTERBLAST Developmer Playtest Session and documented some of the action. This was the same scenario Brett ran at GenCon and last weekend at Area 51 with updated stats and mechanics implemented from feedback so far.

We have an all new card-based initiative system, refined command point structure and weapons stats. The skill-based actions worked great. There is lots of interaction between both players and the integrated turns make sure one player doesn't have to sit idle as the other player pounds on them. 

Hazards in this particular scenario are represented by hidden tokens where unexpected creatures can burrow and surprise troops on either side. Simple skill checks allow troops to interact with terrain features giving them access to secondary objectives and additional victory points.

Check out the photos of the action here.
