Thank you very much John for your comment! :)

Great figures and much appreciated! Make whatever changes you need to remain happy and inspired. I think I can speak for most of us in that we are here to support you the artist.

I agree with everyone, don't burn yourself out. I joined a few months ago and your work has been great, but take it slower or take a month off. I'd rather see your usual great quality at a slower pace than have it decrease or quit altogether. Plus my printer can only go so fast!

Oh Jason thank you very much for your words! This really means a lot, thank you for understanding!

Highlands_Miniatures

Cannot wait for these! They look excellent!

Eli Williams

Here's a vacation idea...Each month, offer 1 less figure, but create 1 figure based on a different "yearly" theme. Do that for 11 months of the year and at the 12 month you have a set already complete. Take the month off.

John Wainscott

Sorry posted a few times.... just wanted to say you are my top two!! If I had to pick two subs you would be one of them. Your work is worth the wait man, take some time if you need it. (BTW my current tabletop army is 50/50 you and another sculptor). You're my boy blue!!

Jason Davenport

Thank you very much for your comment and for your suggestions Daniel, they're amazing as always! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much for you comment Alexander! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you for your comments Jon! We've been thinking about it, but we think it would be complicated for us to mantain the same miniature design and style being different sculptors. We'll keep thinking about it anyways! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much for your comment Patrick, it means a lot! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much Silvio for your comment! As I said in another comment before, the thing I love the most about Patreon is the community we're creating here! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much Nicholas for your comment, I really appreciate it! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much Richard! The thing I love the most about Patreon is definitely the community we're creating here! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much John! Some Romanian miniatures could be a great addition for the Transilvanya project!

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much for your comment Christian, you guys are amazing! :)

Thank you very much for your comment Clive, I really appreciate it! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much for your comment Khail! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much for your comment Michael! I would love the idea of start making again some props or sceneries for the releases, instead of only miniatures. :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much David! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much for this comment Andrea! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much for this comment Joris, I really appreciate it! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much Joe! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you Isaac! We'll make a foot version of the winged hussars and a flintlock version of the riders if we hit the Patreon goal the next month!

Highlands_Miniatures

Thank you very much Ramiro! :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Hi Skeeter! Some of the units we'll create in the future will be more historical and other units more fantasy :)

Highlands_Miniatures

Great looking Winged Hussars for both fantasy and historical applications. But as others have noted, their best known foes were the Ottoman Turks at the siege of Vienna so hope you will do them too! And as also mentioned, Ottomans are indispensable for any sort of Vlad Dracula scenarios. The idea of human Mesoamerican warriors wearing dinosaur costumes (much like the elite Jaguar and Eagle knight of the Aztecs), but hope there are also plenty of lower class Aztec warriors in their traditional dress, including a few Jaguar and Eagle knight for all of the historical gamers. to my knowledge, nobody else has made 3d files of historical Aztecs yet so they are certainly needed, and would be a perfect opponent for the planned, Spanish themed Imperials.

Daniel Peterson

You have 950 patreons, that should be a good income. Work a few more months and build up some reserves, then take a month off. The prospect of a holiday coming up will make it all a bit more manageable now and after the month off you will feel a lot better. Your patreons will totally understand if you pause the patreon for a month.

Alexander

Have you considered adding another sculptor to your team? A lot of these Patreons that offer big releases each month are multi-sculptor affairs.

Jon Letham

Sounds like you have a lot on your plate.

Ed Thüringen

It's historically accurate if that helps

Ed Thüringen

I would hate to see you burnt out on sculpting and feeling like you just have to keep pushing models out. Do what is best for you and your craft! im always happy to see what you come out with but would be more then happy to scale back if it meant you would have a better balance.

I love everything about them! Except the nose guard on their helmets. They look odd to me, but that preference. Otherwise good show. I understand they are correct style so no hit at you lol

Jon Letham

Oh I miss Poland... Warszawa <3

Silvio Martins

Love these guys! Also the suggestions made by Oliphant Supplies sounds nice as well. Anyway I love your work, Martha support is also great. So the important stuff here is to support your incredible work and no matter if you need some extra time to chill and recharge the batteries. Also the group here seems also incredible and I believe we all would love to help you with insights, ideas, suggestions and references. A warm hello from Brazil! Stay healthy&well!

Silvio Martins

Like others have said, I’m here for your artwork. It’s really well detailed without being as flashy as a lot of other sculptors. That’s what’s going to keep me as a subscriber, not building a specific army. You do you and the muse will come. I’m excited to see what happens when you step out of the box a little.

Nicholas McCurdy

I agree with Christian and John above - I'm here for YOUR artwork. I think the Patreon model can be how you want to make it. I'd rather see you explore your creativity and produce a few great models (like you have been doing) than have you working towards a volume that you feel you have to meet each month to be competitive. I'm not leaving! If it takes more time to start some new armies and that results in smaller units - I'm still going to be enjoying every bit of what you share with us!

Richard Stuhlsatz

I agree with Christian and Clive. Love your work. Excellent detail and quality. Enjoy life. Take time as you need. Future request...Romanian army with Vlad vs some Ottoman Turks. Impaled bodies would be great. :)

John Wainscott

Hi, First of all (and I think I'm speaking for all of us): I love your work! And as a commercial and private enthusiast of your miniatures I'd like to say: Take your time, don't hustle and most important stay healthy! You are in the strong position to work in your passion. Don't worry about us, we can wait a few days longer for such great minis. Best regards Chris

Christian Raap

These are fantastic. You have taken the time to do the models justice, and if you need it, take breaks please! For me its better to have min's that I am proud to put on the table than have a bunch a not so great models, so please take the time and don't burn yourself out.

Clive Henrick

Personally I love that these will not be modular. If that is a big turn off for a lot of people though you should try and do a crossover with Kyushuneko. Great guy and he has done some great kislev style stuff/is also looking to try different things each month. I agree with your decision. Burnout is bad for everybody. People work best when they feel best :)

Ryder Frankle

We love your work. I prefer quality over quantity, even if it means only making one unit a month. Don’t burn yourself out.

Keg and Krow

first off these hussars look amazing ! - on the other topic its important to get your balance right, we definitly dont want you burning out having just embarked on a huge world building plan! if that means some months we get one unit rather than two, or a unit ends up being spread across 2 months i personally wouldnt mind that - one of the other Patreons im only in does a unit each month and some more charactorfull pieces that he's interested in - (casualties, camp scenes, named charactors, "monsters" - its historical so his monster has been St George and the Dragon)

Toggers

Lovely! As a Pole, I always appreciate any images of Husaria and yours are really nice but the lances could be longer. As for swords, there are many known variants to choose from but perhaps consider some Husaria specific weapons too? The koncerz, nadziak [horseman's pick], palasz, and perhaps a reflex bow or a pair of flintlock pistols would make them significantly more Eastern-themed. Also, don't forget to add more pennants to those lances :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_hussars

Those are fantastic! But, please, look after yourself. The quality of the miniatures you've been creating to date are excellent. There is no need for improvement but I can fully understand your desire for self-improvement.

You have done a great job Ramon! Better less figures, but still high quality... Each of us follows more Patreon, but your "scottish" miniatures look like a great pure malt whisky! Greetings from Italy!

Andrea

They are beautiful

Thank you Phil for being always here and being so comprehensive. Definitely we need to have that beer when this pandemic ends!

Highlands_Miniatures

Awesome Work!

Christian Förster

Ramon, dont fret yourself over other patreons, I think I speak for a lot of us patreons that we are here for your style and out of love for your work. Not some sense of getting the best deal. Also, see peoples enthousiasm for what it is, enthousiasm eventhough sometimes we might sound like a pack of wolves who are never satisfied, dont ever take it as peer pressure. Its only love and enthousiasm.

Joris Dee

Hope you get everything sorted with yourself mate, it seems like your trying to compete with other patreons that probably have multiple sculptors by yourself, your work is spot on

They look amazing Ramon. Doing creative stuff all the time can easily lead to burnout. It’s something that is seen all the time on platforms like Patreon. The important people in all of this are you and Marta. If you need break, then take it. I would hope people will understand. The work you both do is simply stunning. When I used to commission paint I had a breakdown because of the constant demands. Just take your time, breathe, walk in the beautiful place you live.

Phil Walling

Hope you

Ooooh! These are awesome! I hope you release these as foot soldiers too!

StarScream1813

The pace and the quality of this patreon is perfect. Take care Ramón!

Are you going to do more traditional knight figures
