Topic: Any thoughts about 3-d Cards as minis?

I've been having a lot of fun with the WizKids Pocketmodels for star wars and Pirates.

Any thoughts about getting similar minis for Iron Stars / Starmada / etc.?  Although I must confess complete ignorance as to the setup costs, etc.

Like Shakespeare said "the play's the thing" (for me)... painting minis not not my forte.

I would love to do something like this -- but it is currently outside the scope of MJ12's capabilities. sad

Does anyone have any contacts with Topps or WizKids?  they might consider contract work.  I know I'd signup to buy an IS fleet if it were available.

I could help with designs of ships that would translate nicely into 3d (some are calling it 2.5d)  I belong in the "spacial" olympics.

but the artwork is truly beyond me.

I'm committed to pewter minis on this game myself.  Cardstock just doesn't do it for me.

Thank heavens for Brigade, eh?  smile
