July 2022 Release Third Preview: Dwarfs, Sons of Ymir!
Good evening guys! ⚔️
Hope you're having a better week than us!
Oh my.. all started on Monday morning realising that the computer wasn't working! We've been trying to identify the issue and we finally believe it's the computer's water cooling system that it isn't working, causing a CPU overheating problem and forcing the computer to shut down after a minute or so of being turned on.
And the worst thing was that all the July files -and our entire work- were there, inside the computer hard drive, and we couldn't mantain the computer enough time on to get the files!
We were really worried, but we finally managed to recover the files using a hair dryer with cold air option and putting it on top of the CPU, making it useful for a few more minutes, enough time to transfer the working files to an USB.
Anyway, we think we'll be able to solve it by this weekend and get back to normal if we fix it ourselves, because the tech support from the store gave us en estimated fixing time of... a month! Pure madness.
But yeah.. pretty busy week trying to not panic and getting use to work in our old laptop that doesn't have enough system memory to run Zbrush properly, or to even open two Google Chrome windows at the same time!
Thank you guys for giving us advices and suggestions on Discord to help us solve it, it really means a lot.
Well, let's get back into what really matters...
Today we are showcasing the five (5) monopose dwarfs warriors with two-handed axes! The idea behind these miniatures is to be give you guys the option to create a full dwarfs warriors unit with two-handed weapons instead of only a unit with one-handed weapon and shields, like the Dwarf Warriors we showcased the other day. 🪓
These miniatures are part of the upcoming amazing July 2022 Release, that will be composed of:
7x Dwarfs WarriorsCore Miniatures with modular weapons and shields
5x Dwarfs WarriorsCore Miniatures with two-handed axes and monopose
3x Dwarfs WarriorsCommand Group
5x Dwarfs Marksmen Core Miniatures: Dwarfs with hand crafted gunpowder guns
1x Dwarf Marksmen Captain: Dwarf captain with hand crafted gunpowder guns
Now we are working on the Dwarfs Marksmen unit, that we hope to have ready to preview -if nothing else breaks along the way- along the next week.
Hope you like it guys and enjoy the next weekend, it seems that is is going to be sunny! ❤️

The sculpst are great, but the design for these is not my favorite one, (this rune stuff) and I wished to see those old designs, anyway I am a huge fan of your work and not using this wont affect my support at all.
Highly recommend a Synology NAS, easy to setup and maintain - I can't imagine running a small business withour reliable redundancy or atleast a cloud drive.
Thank you for the suggestion Scott! Is that brand a good brand for servers? Our computer knowledge is quite small and we never heard about those systems, but we will take a look to them to avoid future problems for sure!
oof on a computer breakdown always a good warning to double down and have a NAS/Server with automatic backup. Even better if you can have a 3rd remote
Thank you for the suggestion Josh! Honestly, it is the first time we hear about that but we will have to take a deeper look into those systems to avoid these problems next time something happens to our computer!
Cool! Are the shields on the back optional?
Yes! They will come separated from the miniatures so you can glue them in theIr back to look as we designed them or just go without them :)
These guys look great - BUT you need at least one dwarf wielding the classic two-handed dwarven warhammer. Dwarves + Hammers = classic.
Thank you Alex! We are keeping the two-handed hammers for a dedicated unit full of.. hammers!
They look amazing!!!!Will there be female warrior options?
Thank you Michael! Not for this specific unit, our idea is to create a full female dwarfs special unit in the future :)
