Project Update: File Invitations From MMF Have Been Sent
Afternoon Backers,
Your MMF file invitations have been sent! There's a couple stragglers whose emails we still need. Let us know if you have questions at [email protected]. This concludes this project unless we goofed something up. We will see you during the next one!
Thanks!
Dave
Project Update: Thank You!
Thank you backers! We've completed our pre-order for the Phase 1 Winter War Models. We are excited to get these models all finished up to you and on your printers in the coming weeks.
What's Next...
We will be sending out a survey soon asking for your myminifactory emails and get these distributed late next week or the following. If you missed out, we will have these models up on the Trenchworx & Lost Heresy websites along with Wargaming 3D and MyMiniFactory in late April.
We look to start working on phase 2 in the fall with another pre-order for these models. Lots of stuff to do between now and then though! Be sure to subscribe to our Newsletter at www.trenchworx.com to keep up with new releases for Winter War along with other new releases.
Thanks again for your support and we will get that survey sent out in the next few days and your minis dispatched soon after.
Have a great weekend!
Dave
Project Update: Bunkers Unlocked and Bill's Brushwork
We passed the $2000 mark and unlocked the Log Bunkers. Bill made another iteration so that you now have a bunker suitable for the Mortar and another for the HMG! Next stop... Komsomolets!!!
Bill also did some brushwork on his Finns and Russians...
Thanks!

Looks like a nice set of figures, I'm glad to support this. But I need to add a note about SMGs in the Finnish Army of WWII: You've modelled one person in the platoon HQ with an SMG. This looks cool but Finnish leaders weren't issued SMGs in the Winter War - the platoon leader had a pistol and the platoon sergeant a rifle. Squad leaders too were only armed with rifles. The SMG was always given to the most dangerous man in the squad. Perhaps you could create a variation of the SMG-armed leader model with the historical rifle armament? You've also modelled one of the Finnish heavy machinegun team with an SMG. This is also not historical as machinegun teams were part of machinegun companies which were issued with zero SMGs. Perhaps you could create a variation of this figure with a rifle?
Project Update: Winter War in 28mm - Digital Pre-Order
We are thrilled to be able to supply these Winter War files via a Pre-Order on Backerkit! This project is purely digital using the files from our physical Winter War offerings we launched last year. Although smaller than our usual projects, we wanted to get these files into distribution and try a new project launch method via backerkit for digital only. This is a joint project between Trenchworx and Bill Thornhill of Lost Heresy Miniatures.
We already have a physical project for Hobgoblins, Kobolds and Goblins Too! and don't want two physical projects running at the same time because physical work and distribution is pretty labor intensive and a much longer timeline. If you aren't interested in our Historical Range and are more Fantasy oriented be sure to check out our HKG project out HERE.
As of today's print, the Winter War project has cleared the $500 funding level and the $1000 stretch goal level for the Dragon's Teeth Tank Obstacles. The Machine Gun and Mortar Bunkers are up next! We really want to see those Komsomolets with riders too!
If you want to get some great files for your Bolt Action, Chain of Command or other World War II and Interwar gaming periods then check this project out HERE.
Thanks!
Dave
