  • Ben is under the weather.

    Hope you all had a good festive period, although I realise for many of you it’s not over just yet!

    I’m making some progress on getting our email system working again. Unfortunately progress was rather hampered by the fact that I managed to get tonsillitis. I’ve gotta tell you, that has been less than fun. I’m not well yet but I’m improving.

    There’s some new Kromlech stuff on its way over although someone has first dibs on them. If he’s changed his mind then it’ll go up on the site as per usual.

    Should any of you want us to put together a special order of Kromlech stuff for you we can make it happen, just let us know using the contact form.

    With any luck you’re all feeling better than I am!

  • Christmas 2011 and postage

    Hello to you all!

    Hopefully you’re all having a pleasant December, I know we are. Anyway this blog post is just a quick heads-up really. We’re not closing over Christmas but postage is likely to be delayed a bit.

    We’ll be doing our utmost to post things as quickly as we always do but we cannot vouch for the speed of the Royal Mail at this hectic time of year.

    Fox Box is hoping to get a present shortly though – a nice DSLR camera to improve the quality of our photos. With any luck in the new year we’ll have prettier pictures for some or all of our stock.

    In January we’ll have some very exciting stuff to show you with the help of said camera.

    Stay green!

  • Fox Box’s early Christmas present from Kromlech

    Hey Guys!

    Great news here at Fox Box we just got a package from Poland today – our first order from Kromlech arrived! That means that once we get all the stock sorted and pictures taken we’ll be selling Kromlech products, shipping them straight from the UK!

    When you order the Kromlech products from us we’ll be able to get them to you as fast as all our other stock (less than 24 hours in most cases!).

    We’ll be selling their products as whole kits/ blister packs, not as individual bits; that’s just the way it’s gotta be.

    We won’t be stocking their entire range just yet; keeping in Fox Box tradition we are concentrating on Orky (or Orcy!) stuff to start with. The plan is to eventually have all their products available but it’ll take a while. If there’s  things you want us to make a priority give us a shout.

    So for now stay green!

    UPDATE: Kromlech products are now on the shelves.

  • Spores of Anarchy: Introduction

    I’m sure plenty of you are familiar with the American television show Sons of Anarchy, it’s got action, Ron Perlman, and motorcycles; what’s not to like?

    Some of you may also know that I recently wrote some rules for Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs for Gorkamorka, based on Neil Plews’ GoMo Freebooter rules. I wanted to create my own mob of bikers and felt that a variant on the normal rules was required to make my vision feasible. I asked Darren Sampson for some accompanying artwork and he gave me this:

    Pretty good, eh?

    I’m currently bashing away at the models and posting updates on The Waaagh and Dakka Dakka documenting the progress of my gang. That’s not all though – I’m working on some decals for the club to create uniform back patches for the torsos I’m sculpting.

    They’ll look a little bit like this when they’re done:

    The thing is, they’re only about 12mm tall and the paper to print them is 216mm by 280mm which means that unless I’m planning on making a gang of hundreds I really don’t need that many. You might also notice that the text in the photo above is different from Darren’s artwork, that’s because I’ve created a version with customisable text allowing me to generate art assets for any chapter, not just my own.

    Mentioning this on the forums it looks like there’s quite a few other chapters springing up!

    • Spores of Anarchy: Northern Wastes (Sam Snow)
    • Spores of Anarchy: North West
    • Spores of Anarchy: Ash Waste Nomads

    We’ve also got an affiliate in Wolverhampton:

    • Scums of Anorky Redwun Originulz

    Keep your eyes on the blog for further details on this little project as I intend on documenting the different charters. If you’re looking to start your own whether it’s for Gorkamorka or just Warhammer 40,000, drop me a line using the contact form or leave a comment.

  • Fox Box featured in showcase

    We’re feeling rather proud of ourselves today – we were featured in Jigoshop Showcase #7.

    It’s nice to see our little store getting a bit of attention outside the wargaming community. Thanks, guys!
