Shostak, I'm glad you approve! A nice little update! First up are renders of the unlocked Rocket Launcher addition, designed by Faolan and mounted on Kit Burrows carriage, it is inspired by the 19th century Congreve Rocket Launcher.   We've also added a new extra, a rugged little tractor unit ideal for shifting ammunition, or even towing the artillery pieces with an option hook. Another multi-part resin kit, designed by Faolan, it measure about 5.5cm in length.   We've also added some new pledge reward options, and I can confirm that the Carriage and Anti-Tank Laser itself has now been printed - this should now be on show at Salute this weekend on the Zinge Industries stand! |

That tiny tractor is ADORABLE. It reminds me of the Kettenkrad or Komsomolyets from WWII... I want many for conversions. At the very least, I want one for a Lord Commissar to stand on heroically as he is slowly borne into battle.

A couple more additions, first off a work in progress preview of the Tesla Cannon!  Secondly, we've added a final stretch goal, one last push to add a final weapon, though to keep it viable this one will be an extra addition pledgers will need to add to their pledge. It is still work in progress, but here is the Multiple Rocket Launcher!   |

These are looking superb. You've done so much in such a small space of time, it's unbelievable!
The only thing that keeps popping into my mind is that the Gatling Gun could do with being redesigned in the same way, give it more detail etc. Is that something you would ever consider, Gravis?

All credit goes to the cad artists Kit & Faolan for that I think, they've worked wonders! Don't worry, Kit is working his magic on the Gatling Cannon, and I intend on redesigning the light Carriage myself down the line to fit the new weapons while retaining the wooden wheels. In the meantime, another update, this time the Nebelwerfer again!  |

24 hours left until the campaign ends! kck.st/XXoCuxI'm very pleased to be able to preview a more complete Autocannon now - the Gatling is also finished, and the Tesla further along, updates to follow on those in the next 24 hours!   And if you wondered how this particular gun might work, try this youtube LINK! |

Good work. But I have to get something off my chest. Has the typo in "Curious ConstRucts" always been there?

Our final funding total was £7295 - we asked for £600 - so we achieved 1215% funding! Frankly I'm still stunned by how successful its been, I really do think that this can be put down to the stunning work done by Kit of Zinge Industries and Faolan, huge thanks to them both!
With all the CAD work complete (all the finished designs are on the Kickstarter page), we're moving on getting the rest of the masters printed now, and then production moulds produced. I'll update with pictures at various points as these become available. I'm confident that we'll be delivering all pledges on time in June and July respectively, with all the sets which features in the kickstarter going on general sale in the store also in July - or otherwise just as soon as all pledges have been fulfilled.

Thank you! Yes I'm bloomin' pleased to finally get them out there, its been quite a long road, lots of good lessons though! Just a quick update, following on from a customers suggestion I'll be making available single weapons from the Field Artilery kit with a Carriage, this will be in addition to the weapons being available separately at a later date. So, new items on the store, the Lasercannon Kit, and the Tesla Cannon Kit, these will both normally priced at £10.00 each, but are currently £9.00 each instead. |

I dont know about you guys, but I love the idea of having a ranks of infantry, standing and kneeling, presenting arms as they prepare to deliver a devastating volley of rifle fire - so here's a little preview of what I've been working on, aimed for a April release.  More previews on the way, including Renegades and a selection of weapons! |

Thanks chaps! Well if you like the look of the Laserlock rifles which the firing line uses, here they are as a seperate release about to head off for production moulding, joining them is the Sniper variant, a Grenade Launcher and blaster weapon which is yet to be named, all designed by Jake Schneider.  More to come! |

More previews, following up from the Rifles, how about some Pistols instead? Again designed by Jake aka Faolan.  |

The rifles are nice, but the pistols are great! I especially love the revolver.

The revolver is a proper man stopper of a pistol I've got to say! My favorite of the pistols is still to come though. But first up Bayonets for the Rifles, and the Chainsabre, again by Jake.  |
