I first learned about Rivet Wars a few weeks ago via Phil's awesome battlegrip.com. Now you can buy this little resin Vert Tank for only $15 plus shipping. Assemble a Tank Division..!
What is Rivet Wars all about?
Rivet Wars is a context in which to make toys, art, stories and stuff. This really got rolling when I posted a sketch of a tank/robot in the toybreak forums. Something about the tank I drew made me think that it needed a world to live in, someone to drive it, and someone for the tank to fight. I soon realized that I'd been drawing these things my whole life but now all those disparate ideas could find a focus in Rivet Wars.
I had begun to see that people online were making their own toys, their own graphic novels...their own stuff. So why not make my own toy of this tank? And some paintings, and maybe a poster, and some short stories and maybe a website...and so here we are. I really have no idea where this will go but I do know that I'm excited about it and I hope that others will get excited as well. Thanks for visiting the world of Rivet, I hope you like what you see and continue to visit often.

Great article, thank you for the feature. They are really well made toys, and a blast to paint up.
