I was craving fore some more normal street people. I like to paint them as a brake to anything military. Just to make some experiments with bright, neon colours and fancy textures.

Something different . Cool addition

Dan Brown

Love it. One idea for a future version is less action poses. To allow printing multiple copies and painting up differently there is only so many times people will be staring at a bottle or doing finger-guns

Unfortunately where I live, the cost of printing the maps on a durable material - plastic, neoprene, vinyl, is ridiculously prohibitive. I was quoted over 100 ukp to print a 48x48 map. Like, that's going to happen. So, I decided to fiddle around. I exported the image from a pdf, cut it into A3 sections in GIMP and printed that on my home printer. The overall cost to me with ink and paper was fourteen ukp. Huge difference. Assembly was a little tricky but there are several glue variants that can be used which allow one to slide the image to make sure it fits and lines up. A slightly higher cost and one can seal each A3 sheet in a plastic folder or leave it like I have and place a 4'x4' perspex sheet over it for game use. The perspex gets the wear and tear and the map lasts a good long while. When not in use, they are rolled up and stored in an extendable art transport tube. Would love to get them printed on something convenient but not at the rip off prices that are the norm here in stupid land.

As far as I can recall, this is the first time Unit-9 have gone for a full civilian release. I don't know about anybody else but I have long prayed for a collection like this. I hope, very much, that is the start and not a one-off release. Twice a year at least, we should have a civilian people/vehicle/props release. This one is glorious, the food truck especially. Thank you. One can never have too many innocent by-standers to help keep trigger happy players in check; regardless of whether it is a Skirmish or RPG table. Much appreciated, and I like the minis in this collection very much.

Assemble? They are different sizes of Matt . I normally print the 48 x 48” one. - they really designed to run as separate maps not be put together

liking the vehicles - but the backwards text on the food truck is bothering me. will that be mirrored for the final release? also, any chance of getting the car as a windowed version if I don't want to paint the interior?

Arnaud Des

we need more vehicules ;) there are top

I'm also loving this civilian range. Just folks going about their day. I can see an appeal for different archetypes in this kind of range - various identifiable trades, service industry and office workers would be cool.

I would add that you really have one unexplored area you haven't done with vehicles and that's with printable windows that can be 3D printed in clear resin, and taking some of your original sculpts and putting them in sitting positions in the vehicles, tanks, helicopters and so on. I love your vehicles but you would be able to heighten the realism by doing vehicle interiors with drivers. Would love to see this. For instance, your "City Pulse" vehicle is ready to go if you could take one of the civilians and put them in a sitting position and make the windows detachable for clear resin or vacuum forming by Patreon supporters.

This is my favorite release in the last couple of months. I love your Sleepless City Citizens for a long time, and now you finally made them your focus for once. Awesome!

I live in the US, I sent the files to Vista print and got them printed on vinyl for $20USD each (during a sale)

I printed mine at a local print shop which prints posters and advertising material. They have a ploter and can print posters up to 2 meter wide. They have relatively large selection of material and are very cheap. I paid 14 EUR for 4x4 feet vinyl gaming mat (I live in Poland).
