Watchful I Studio Offering Painting Services

I am proud to announce that Watchful I Studio will be expanding its services and will now offer an assembly and painting service for any hobby projects that you don't have time to complete yourself or just need some friendly assistance in getting armies painted. We are working out the details and want to offer a competitive price so please don't hesitate to reach out to me to discuss your needs.

We can perform simple tasks such as cleaning, assembly and priming that most people do not enjoy but we can also take your miniatures to completion offering several stages of highlights and washing as well as basing.

If you have an army in mind but don't own the miniatures then we can also quote you a price including the cost of the miniatures and the painting services. We are open to discuss package deals saving you a little money and all of these offerings include any Watchful I Studio miniatures that you wish to purchase.

We have experience painting 6mm up to 40mm miniatures so no project is too small or too large.

We will be creating a Painting Services portion to our website including completed work for clients, videos, and painted miniatures for sale that we paint when not assisting our clients.

We look forward to working with you and don't hesitate to contact me. Samples of our work can be seen here, on our Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/watchfulistudio and also on our new blog www.miniature-hobby-journey.com currently under development that will cover all manner of products and games.

    Survey Time: We are getting closer and closer to producing plastics and we are looking for your help. 

Fireforge Games offering Watchful I Studio historical range

Recently Fireforge Games has elected to carry Watchful I Studio's Qin Dynasty Chinese range in their webstore. The items are now live and in stock so let's support our friends at Fireforge and help them during a difficult time in Italy. We are proud that they have decided to carry our products and hopefully we will see more of this partnership in the future. They continue to present a wonderful array of products for their growing historical and blossoming fantasy ranges. For more information or to order your items from Fireforge please click the icon above. Be safe and take care of each other during this difficult time. 

Survey Results
After leaving the survey posted for about a month the results are in and here are the top 3 civilizations that you voted for: 

1. Xiongnu Empire - Chinese pre-Mongols (209 BC - 215 AD)
2. Yayoi Dynasty - Japanese (300 BC - 300 AD)
3. Greco-Bactrian Kingdom - Indo-Greek (250-125 BC)

So what does this mean? Well, these are clearly the ranges you would like to see and I am all about making my customers happy. Moving forward we will begin designing, sculpting and manufacturing these civilizations in the order above. Each civilization will receive a full historical compliment as well as fantasy components associated with the cultures mythical and folklore beasts. The fantasy elements will have a 'theme' allowing collectors to build a fantasy army to use in a myriad of game systems available in the marketplace. We have a few other civilizations that are currently in production such as the highly anticipated Mauryan Indian range and its fantasy counterparts and a new Chinese Warring States range. Keep a Watchful I on the projects page for updates and information about the new ranges coming in the future. 

Watchful I Studio talks with the Counter Charge Crew 

I spent some time talking with the Counter Charge guys about Chinese, Terracotta Warriors, Mauryan Indians and the future of Watchful I Studio. Click on the link below and enjoy the show!  
The Mauryan Empire project page has been posted for quite some time but a lot of progress has been made on the army over the past several months. We are getting close to launching the Mauryan Empire miniatures range but recent events around the globe will delay the launch until conditions improve. The tenative launch for the Kickstarter will be delayed until later this spring or into the summer of 2020 so keep a Watchful I for more details.
