Hi Guys :)

Happy New Year to all.

I bring you the compilation of new releases for the month of January. There are some things missing like the game versions of the vampiric servants. You will find them with the archives in any case.

This month we've had 3 very demanding projects and we've come very close :). We hope you like it because we have tried our best.

Today I also want to talk about piracy. I would like you to take it as something didactic and not as a cry.

Last month Last Sword earned around 5.000 euros from this patreon, after deducting the commissions of the platform and your taxes. It's a respectable amount, but it's not enough to maintain our current production structure, which consists of 3 sculptors, Jason, Mario and Stephan, German who has joined to help with the web and social media management, Isaac in charge of all the logistics and accounting and me managing the projects. 

Also now we have included a programmer, to be able to solve the integration of Patreon in the web, and another series of improvements that will come in the future. 

With this I want to say that the subsequent sales on the web are essential for us to be viable as a company and to accompany you for a long time.

This year we have had to ban a dozen people for filtering files. But banning someone does not solve any problem. Once a file is leaked, it's a lost battle for us. And believe me, it has a huge impact on us.

It all boils down to the fact that we are not a multinational, even if it sometimes seems that way to you. In the miniature world almost all of us are small companies trying to make a living from what we like the most.

That's why we need your collaboration, both economically as you do every month, and by sharing our social networks. But above all avoiding that the files are shared.

Thank you very much to all of you for your support and I'm sorry for the brick I've thrown at you :)pd:  Tomorrow I will start answering all the messages, as I see there are a lot of them.

Hola Chicos :)

Feliz año nuevo a todos.

Os traigo la recopilación de novedades del mes de enero. Faltan algunas cosas como las versiones de juego de los siervos vampíricos. En cualquier caso las encontraréis con los archivos.

Este mes hemos tenido 3 proyectos muy exigentes y hemos acabado por los pelos :). Esperamos que os guste porque nos hemos esforzado al máximo.

Hoy también os quiero hablar de la piratería. Me gustaría que os lo tomárais como algo didáctico y no como un llanto.

El mes pasado Last Sword ingresó alrededor de 5.000 euros por este Patreon, una vez descontadas las comisiones de la plataforma y sus impuestos. Es una cantidad respetable, pero no es suficiente para mantener nuestra actual estructura de producción, que consta de 3 escultores, Jason, Mario y Stephan, Germán que se ha incorporado para ayudar en la gestión de la web y las redes sociales, Isaac encargado de toda la logística y contabilidad y yo gestionando los proyectos. 

Además ahora hemos incluido un programador, para poder solucionar la integración de Patreon en la web, y otra serie de mejoras que vendrán en el futuro. 

Con esto quiero decir que las ventas posteriores en la web son fundamentales para que seamos viables como empresa y os acompañemos durante mucho tiempo.

Este año hemos tenido que banear a una docena de personas por filtrar archivos. Pero banear a alguien no resuelve ningún problema. Una vez que se filtra un archivo, es una batalla perdida para nosotros. Y créanme, tiene un gran impacto.

Todo se reduce al hecho de que no somos una multinacional, aunque a veces os lo parezca. En el mundo de las miniaturas casi todos somos pequeñas empresas que intentan vivir de lo que más nos gusta.

Por eso necesitamos tu colaboración, tanto económica como la que haces cada mes, como compartiendo nuestras redes sociales. Pero sobre todo, evitando que los archivos sean compartidos.

Muchas gracias a todos por vuestro apoyo y perdón por el ladrillo que os he lanzado :)

Pd: Mañana me pondré a responder todos los mensajes, que veo que hay muchisimos.

Mpamphs Stathoula

Tony Salomonsson

Hi! I'm new to patreon and this is my first place i am patroning (?). I became a patron because the hippogriffs were amazing. How do i get the STLs to make prints? :)

Myca Vykos

Your patreon is amazing. I purchase files on your site as well. I'm sorry you're having trouble.

Space Wolf223

where can i find the discount code for the website ?

Giulliano Cortez

Have you looked into colabs with other known creators for more publicity? Like Archvillain Games, Epic Miniatures, Lord of Print, Dragon Lodge?

manuel römisch

hi there new to the patreon. where can i find all of the download links? to the january files and welcome pack e.g.

Mark Peat

Excellent work as always guys!

Bhaal72516

I love your work...I am considering your enterprise as one of the best in the 3d Market for fantasy stuff... BTW Any experience how those lovely figurines will print at smaller scale e.g. 15 mm?

Fuxxx

So how does this work? Will there be a link for this months minis? Are the x Patron rewards put into the welcome pack or where else can I find them?

Michael Johnson

So have the above questions about where to find the January files been answered elsewhere? Maybe I'm missing something?

Space Wolf223

do the digital files on your site come pre supported ? from the lizardmen ?

Mark Detlor

Based on historical patterns guys this is simply the final shot of all the models for January's release. The link for downloading all STL files both supported and unsupported are posted here generally around the 15th-17th of the current month. A discount code is often given to purchase previous Patreon releases or other products released through other means to be used on their website. Once the link is released mid month you have until the last day of month to download the files. On the 1st of the month they generally inactivate the previous month's link on Patreon here. If you miss a release you can contact them, but this may a few extra days to sort out so be diligent to look for file releases in the 2nd half of each month but before the 1st

Tobi

You got me with this post. Its just awesome what you make. Your Design is the thing what WHF should be. Pls never stop and keep up your great work.

Glitterwolf

I love Undead and Lizards, had to join for those Ordos Draconis. And that Steam Tank in the welcome pack is a great version!!!

Nice

Hi, just asking, I'm new to this patreon thing:-) are all those files now printable?:P

James Moyon

I cannot find the link to the January files; are they available yet? Thanks.

Rubén Rivadulla Canosa

Me compré una impresora a medias en verano y estaba en el patreon con otra persona, pero al final decidí comprarme una impresora hace uno o dos meses así que me he apuntado directamente. La miniatura de vampira del mes pasado ya no se puede conseguir?, no la veo en la web :(. Saludos e impresionante trabajo el que hacéis.

Has anyone had trouble too, printing the elven lion rider? Failed 3 times now. Printed it with Lord of the print parts first.. all LOTP parts worked.. lion parts failed.. all of them.. made a testprint with other files and ameralabs town.. all fine.. printed the lion mixed with mammoth factory.. all failed (not the mf files but lions)... - printed RAW &Z.kino files.. (after increasing exposure time a bit and lift speed) all fine.. printed the lion.. this time increasing size by 50% (as stl to have the supports grow at same percentage) failed again.. (rider body, hand, weapon and lion tail came out fine but the lion body again left only supports behind) - this is a huge disappointment. i subscribed because of this particular model alone. - do i have to redo all the supports myself, or has anyone a hint on how to solve this somewhat easier. i am not really good at self-supporting files - i understand that settings can be the issue.. however, i had several other models print alongside and in between.. those worked.. and for the last print i opened up a new bottle of resin and did another batch to secure the settings and resin were working, and the lion still failed.

Alexander Barahona

You guys are worth saving, and your art is worth respecting, you got my money!

Giulio

Hey guys! awesome work, as usual. One quick feedback concerning the bases/basing structures. Some of us use specific bases (e.g. stonefloor/cobblestone) that do not fit very well if you use non-neutral basing elements like the grass you have on the cataphracts. I am no expert but potentially having "neutral" bases would help. The grass features could be printed separately if somebody wants those. I am cherrypicking, I know!!

Stephane T

Your work is just EXTRAORDINARY! Well done ! I just have a small regret: in the past, you provided two types of banners, one of which was blank... This allowed us to further personalize our regiments. This is the only detail that I regret: everything else is just great.

lastswordminiatures

We try to do that whenever we can. But there are times when time is running out. Although in this case it doesn't involve sculpting time, we have to cut it separately, optimise the number of polygons, support it, test it. The same piece, almost identical, means in reality several extra hours of work.

Moppelthor

Great work! Love the Blood Knights! Are there no plane bases included in the files?

lastswordminiatures

Normally we don't put them in to save space, in the end it is a file that is in many places and has no value. If you need a specific base, ask me for it by private and we will send it to you.
