    So here's the deal. I used to play Seraphon but then I sold them. I'm considering getting back into them, but I for sure won't if I have to get GW's terrible models that are like 20 years old. I super badly want these mega high quality sculpts.

    How and/or when can we get these or even can we if we didn't do the Kickstarter? Is the process like May 2nd the kickstarter officially ended, then in 3 weeks 3D Printing Files will be released from then, and then some few weeks afterward they'll be available on the store?

    Is there anyway to get the files post Kickstarter? Should I invest in a 3D Printer if I want these models?

    I guess like the ultimate question is what do I have to do to get these epic models because I cannot settle for anything less. It's either these or I guess I don't play Seraphon until GW updates the range. Instead they'd rather create new armies though...

    If I missed these kickstarters am I just out of luck? :( The idea of having to buy a metal slan from GW makes me blanch, yet the epic slan posted in this thread makes me want to buy a 3D printer literally today, lol.

    Hello Krissey, from my following Lost Kingdom's stuff I think there are two ways to get these miniatures currently.

    They have a patreon where they provide different 3d printable files every month, so you can become a patron for them when their lizardmen line is the one being offered. Currently if you become a patron in this month, May, you will receive a selection of miniature 3d printer files.

    Option 2 would be to find one of the officially licensed sellers of the miniatures. During their most recent kickstarter, and on their patreon Lost Kingdoms had a purchasable tier where people could officially sell their own printed versions of these miniatures. I'd do research to make sure sellers are legitimate or not, but from a simple search here is a 3d printer who is selling a selection of the minis https://www.etsy.com/shop/3DPrintingSource?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=796782748

    I can't remember if anyone here on Lustria Online will be a dealer and where they are located for shipping prices.

    3d printers start around $250 US for a cheap plastic printer, but the more expensive and slightly hazardous resin printers are typically better for small detail work. I haven't done any printing so I can't say much on that.

    Hey man! I really appreciate the reply! I started doing some research into 3D printers. I became a Patreon essentially just for the Seraphon/Lizardmen models. I did happen to download the 3 Kroxigors, Hero and the Chameleon Skinks. I then got Cura and Blender to open the STL files. I’m looking to get a AnyCubic Photon S essentially for these miniatures that’s how badly I want them.

    The sculpts and quality are so good they’ve become a must have for me. I’ve decided to sell my entire 10,000 points Blades of Khorne army to fund this project. Not to mention I’ll be able to print cool basing materials like plants and rocks and things of that nature to spruce up my basing game and take it to the next level. I also order from HeroForge a lot so it seems worth it.

    If at this exact moment literally only Patreon and being patient is the way then I’ll wait for Saurus Warriors and Knights and the Skinks and all the other models they’ve made even the Temple Guard. They’re just simply 10,000,000x better than the GW stuff and I can’t abide anything else. I did a lot of research into alternate Seraphon models and these are unequivocally the best miniatures for Seraphon in existence. I will do whatever it takes to get them. So for now it seems that only Kroxigor and Chameleon Skinks are available but that’s ok because I love these models! I think chameleon skinks and cute and I love huge hard hitting melee hammers! I’m an Ironjawz player! So might makes right :D

    Agreed. They really are beautiful models.

    This is exactly what I said to myself upon seeing their first Kickstarter, Ever since that I have been following them very closely so immediately jumped on any chance to get some of their models. Trust me, one way or another you will be able to get the models you want so just take it slow and don't get overwhelmed

    Hello, everybody! We've already seen that you're very busy and your printers are about to catch fire and we're delighted with your work! Keep sharing your wonders with us :)
    Today we bring you the second batch of files. These include all the Stretch goals except three models that we found faulty at the last minute:
    - Magmhôrin Ballista (Just the chassis files left)
    - Kuakuauitl with ballista
    - Ancient Kuakuauitl with Vortex
    The link and passwords are the same, we have simply added a new folder. They're still uploading to Sync, so be patient. The archive with all the folders will be uploaded first, and then the individual files.

    The third and last batch will be uploaded on Wednesday June 3rd and will include the Exclusive Models and these three missing models. For the Exclusive Models we will make special folders for each one ;)

    We will also upload images of each model to their respective folders and we are working on some instructions for the more complicated models.

    Thank you very much for your support and happy printing!

    --------------------------------


    Hola a todos! Ya hemos visto que estáis muy ocupados y vuestras impresoras están a punto de pegarse fuego y estamos encantados con vuestro trabajo! Seguid compartiendo vuestras maravillas con nosotros :)

    El link y las contraseñas son las mismas, simplemente hemos añadido una carpeta nueva. Aún se están subiendo a Sync, tened un poco de paciencia. Se subirán primero el archivo comprimido con todas las carpetas y luego los archivos sueltos.

    La tercera y última tanda será subida el Miércoles día 3 de Junio e incluirá los Modelos Exclusivos y estos tres modelos que faltan. Para los Modelos Exclusivos si que haremos carpetas especiales para cada uno ;)

    I was watching some videos on unboxing and assembling the Lost Kingdom miniatures, and I like the size of some of them, but some of them are overly massive on 50mm bases, whereas the heroes I would want to proxy them for (Astrolith Bearer with some conversion work, Saurus Sunblood for instance) are on 32mm or 40mm bases.

    Is it possible using 3D software to take the whole model and then just sort of shrink it? Might need a few test prints to not squish detail too bad but be more inline with fitting on a 32mm base and such, but that's a thing right? You can just grab the whole model and resize it up or down?

    Yes, you can rescale the Lost Kingdom miniatures files to the size and scale you want.
    An ideal program for that, which I normally use, is Rhinoceros.

    Thanks man! I'm grateful to Lost Kingdoms because they're the ones who have inspired me to dive head first into Seraphon again (I had played them previously but sold them due to bad models and a clash in playstyle, but the new rules support what I like more and these alternate sculpts solve bad models.)

    So I'm really excited :D

    After I realized the download links expire I went ahead and downloaded everything I can just in case I change my mind in the future and do infact want that one thing. I had been toying with starting chaos dwarves for a long time, so even though I have no plans atm, you never know.

    I missed the April release and the the hero on the feathery reptile bird thing, so at this point I've made it a point to download everything every month just incase ;-;

    Can't wait til more Saurians (Seraphon) releases though. So excited. I love these models this company is amazing.

    Hi everybody. I've bought some LK miniatures from a local dealer who has license for that, they are truly beautiful, but pretty big. I would like to have some Cuetzpal infantry, but I would like them to be the size of the GW models. Does anybody know for sure what scale should I ask for different units?

    For default Saurus infantry from Cuetzpal I don’t think you need to scale them any. Their hero and lord units are huge and I don’t have skink equivalents printed up, but Saurus are pretty moderate. Here is a pic side by side.

    C0A33F53-A70C-4EF3-9B7E-8253305D47FE.jpeg

    There are also the cuetzpal temple guard variant who use two handed weapons who have large headdresses so I don’t know how they scale. Bare in mind these are the files through their Patreon that I printed out so I assume the scale from dealers is the same.

    IMPORTANT UPDATE: The online store will finally be operational tomorrow at 12 noon Spanish time. As we have had to fight against all kinds of setbacks, first we are going to release the files of the last kickstarter to check that the whole download system works correctly for you. If everything works fine, we will upload the files of the previous months of Patreon in a few days. Thank you very much for your patience in this matter.

    Today we bring you what will be the release of September on Patreon! A month of well specialized reptiles: flying and fire throwing. With their combined attacks few units will be able to tackle them.

    https://www.patreon.com/LostKingdomMiniatures

    In addition, if we reach 950 patrons during this month of September, we will add a third Tlemiahuatl with a different pose so that you can complete the unit without repeating a pose. So let's share it!

    On the other hand, comment that the hero of the Second Dynasty mounted in Ammit and that will be included in the Welcome Box is in process and I will show it during the week ;)

    Thank you very much for your support!

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ACTUALIZACIÓN IMPORTANTE: La tienda online finalmente estará operativa mañana a las 12 del mediodía hora española. Como hemos tenido que pelear contra todo tipo de contratiempos, primero vamos a poner los archivos del último kickstarter para chequear que os funciona todo el sistema de descargas correctamente. Si todo funciona bien, subiremos los archivos de los meses anteriores de Patreon en unos días. Mil gracias por vuestra paciencia en este asunto.

    Hoy os traemos el que será el lanzamiento de este mes de Septiembre en Patreon! Un mes de reptiles bien especializados: voladores y lanzafuegos. Con sus ataques combinados pocas unidades podrán hacerles frente.

    https://www.patreon.com/LostKingdomMiniatures

    Además, si llegamos a los 950 patrons durante este mes de Septiembre, añadiremos un tercer Tlemiahuatl con una pose distinta para que podáis completar la unidad sin repetir pose. Así que a compartir se ha dicho!

    Por otro lado, comentar que el héroe de la Segunda Dinastia montado en Ammit y que será incluído en la Welcome Box está en proceso y lo enseñaré durante la semana ;)

    Muchas gracias a todos por vuestro apoyo!
