Come here to talk about the less know companies, your prefered not played game or simply to fawn over other anons finished works or cool paintjobs from the web.
Scenografy is welcomed too, this is in what momminiaturas is working right now.
For the now decesead Bretonians players, Norba miniatures has some knight a good price but so so quality, 10 of them 12 euros.
Gonna dump some pictures from my minis blog. I love me some fantasy miniatures.
Meanwhile - I am looking around for good/interesting daemonic or angelic creatures, both medium sized and human sized. Pictures and suggestions are welcome.

Yup I expected a bit more of life in there but well Tg is mainly 40k after all. About demons mantic plastic ones aren't bad (apart of the big guy that's it) and the great demon from momminiaturas is pretty spectacular.

OH man fightin fungi the song of blades and heroes game? Did you play it or they are some random minis?
>>46884607
Hmm. Those actually look like they could be fun to paint. They do look a lot more reasonable without mantics paintjobs and pictures on the webstore.
Any recommendation for amazon minis?
>>46884605
Wish their shipping to USA was less
>>46884465

Would Egyptians do, or are you looking for actual cats that are now bipedal?

Well if you weren't aware, they have a Voucher Programme where you can, e.g. buy a £50 voucher worth £65, so you can save some money that way.
>>46884631
We play the hell out of SoBH in general. We just got done with our second campaign this year, have taken a short break playing Frostgrave (which I've decided I do not enjoy at all) and Pulp Alley (with fantasy - works really well).
Am currently working on mission-cards for the engine, based on 2nd Edition 40k mission cards with a little bit of currendt ed. battle missions and Malifaux schemes thrown in.
Fightin Fungi is *just* the advanced version of the Sobh engine. It has a lot more traits, a lot of them really cool, and a reaction mechanic that makes for some very tactical games. We tend to not use it though, as it bogs the game down, and doesn't work as elegantly as the rest of the system with more than two players.
>>46884701
Mantic has shit painters, I dunno why they never hire more compentent ones with some basic skills, specially because it makes they minis look pretty bad. At least the quality of the minis is improving but lots of awful minis.
>>46884713
What style do you like Rum and bones has some very good Mesoamerican inspired ones and wargames factory used to make very decent Greek amazones but I dunno if they still do them.
>>46884609
This picture is ooooold. Metal Magic and Grenadier (now Mirliton, Em4 and Forlorn Hope) miniatures in this one. Great old-school sculpts that are a ton of fun to paint. By my paintjobs on them look a bit dated.
>>46882899
Fenryll miniatures, lovely Resin models well worth a look
http://fenryll.com/
>>46884864
Idd. Doesn't halp that you can't even get a closer look at the models on their webstore.
But bad pictures is something a LOT of miniature-makers suffer from. There's a lot of hidden gems out there that people wont even consider because the presentation is so shit.
I've been meaning to get some of the mantic zombies and ghouls for a while, so I will propably grab a few of the demons when I order those.
>>46884937
I can never figure out how they compare in size to other manufacturers miniatures, and it's also really hard to find properly painted examples of them around the new.
Got any pics or links?
>>46884890
>>46884843
I played a few games of SOBH and I love it, I was wanting to read fightin fungy to know if it was decent enough to buy it but if it bogs down the system I think I will pass. The setting seems crazy too.
>>46884980
Yup, you would think than without handling it in hand online websites would make a shiton of photos but nope. Even the drunken spaniards does a better job at that than a good deal of other manufacturers.
>>46885061
That's me done. Hope you enjoyed it.
>>46885000

Sadly I sold my ones, but the quality of them was pretty good and they fit well with 28mm models.
These are my old ones, unpainted
>>46885129
thanks for the dump anon

If you mean warrior females, dark sword has plenty of good quality ones.
>>46885221
And war games factory, they have a bit of everything really.
>>46885063
The basic SoBH will last you a long time and is surprisingly versatile. And then there's the boat load of expansions: I really enjoy the dungeon crawl one. Has some fun traits, magic items and a random dungeon generator I am itching to try out.
If you feel like you need more traits and a bit more grit, Ganesha just released an actual Advanced Sobh rulebook. Haven't got it myself yet, as I have most of the stuff in Fightin fungi, but its worth considering.
Working on a Frostgrave warband based off the cultist plastics. Anyone know of a wizard mini I could use to lead them? Not too sure on the wizard types so something fairly generic but styled similarly to the cultists.

It would be far more useful if you posted the manufacturer with the pictures.

>>46884505
What ruleset are you using in these pics?
>>46885367
I have a few suggestions.
This guy by reaper seems pretty suitable, though he might be a little too big for the frostgrave plastics: Reapers miniatures are all over the place, scalewise.
>>46885298
And more.
>>46885367
>>46885506
Either of these two guys could work as well. From Midlam Miniatures: Evil Lord and something else Evil.
>>46885466
SoBH. Just read about it on Wikipedia. It sounds great. I may even try it with LOTR figures as an alternative to the gw rules.
>>46885412
oh shit, I completely forgot.
Those are a mix of frostgrave plastics and GW greatsword heads.
I'll hang around for ~1 hour more, so ask away if there's a manufacturer you want.

As said, Song of Blades and Heroes.
In a similar vein, Open Combat is pretty fun as well, as is Pulp Alley, which can easily be used for fantasy.

Also all this range if you like Greek myths.

Do you have any of the cooler minis eureka miniatures make? I'd love a look if you do. Especially their chaotic stuff.
Anything by ramshackle games?
I really dig your painting style and colour choices.
Definitely looking at reaper minis for some homebrew I'm working on, but I hear warping tends to be a problem. Anyone have experiences with that?
>>46886161
Sadly no to both. But the newer mutants as well as their 28mm Colonial Portuguese are on my Buy Soon list. When/if I ever get around to it, I'll be sure to post some pics.
Prof. Witcheimer over on LAF painted some to exemplary standard though, pic related.
Thanks for your kind words!
>>46886572
Assuming their bones line: In general, their medium to big monsters are fine. A bit soft in detail, especially the earlier ones, but very robust and cheap. Their later stuff is getting a lot better, though I would definitely start with a sample, or try and take a look in person before buying.
I've painted one of their trolls - For that size of miniature, the material is really great.
It is bendy, though it keeps its shape well, and the paint doesnt flake off, even though you do all sorts of stupid shit. I transport my bones minis in my pocket with keys, dice and wallet and they are still perfectly fine.
If they are bend when bought, you supposedly can fix it with hot water.

Thanks bro, ll dig into it later.
>>46886886
Have been looking those and others, most of the minis are expensive or look like shit and are also expensive for the shit that is.
>>46886701
I've been admiring your work on LAF for years now, and its been much inspiration to me as both a gamer and painter. Love your work and keep it up, truly too few people making great scenery, vignettes, and dioramas with their models between games.
>>46886701
Those are awesome. . Thry could almost be right out of a Hieronymus Bosch painting. .
>>46886572
I bought about $100+ of minis from them which netted me a massive amount of stuff. In general I was buying mostly single models intended for player characters or enemy forces in tabletop games. They come in their own individual blister packaging and depending on the model, may have to be shoved in at an angle that unfortunately bends a part during the trip.
I had one guy with a sword that got bent so it was at a 90 degree angle, more or less and a few others that had minor issues with warping, but I put that down to the dickheads that delivered it left it outside my house in the Australian sun, possibly for up to two days before I even fucking found the box, because it was just discarded in the grass.
That said; all the minis that were warped were easily fixed by getting some long needle nose tweezers, getting a bowl of really hot water and really cold water, holding it in the hot water for about a minute then adjusting the part, then dipping it and holding it in the cold water.
One or two of them needed the treatment a couple of times because I couldn't get the angles right, but it was nothing too severe.
I have heard that there are issues with these fixes being undone if the models are exposed to significant heat, like if you have to fix a model and then you leave it in the sun it'll go back to it's 'bent' form.
Overall though, really satisfied with the Reaper Bones stuff. The quality is actually higher than the photos show, because their photographer is an idiot and manages to overexpose the models to light so you can't see ALL the detail.
Can't wait for Microworld to finish/release these guys. I'm gonna buy so many tiny mustache mans.
>>46894257
Holy sheet. Those are amazing.
6mm fantasy project incoming.
>>46885749
here are some actually nice wolves
>>46895544
Those are from Gamezone, right? Pretty nice. Gamezone does some really amazing stuff mixed in with some really shitty stuff. And its really hard to find propper pictures of their stuff.
I'm planning to paint a Dark Sword mini based on this sketch and I'm kinda stuck coming up with colours for it. Gold parts will be NNM, and I don't know if I should make the belly scales gold or not. And what to do with her skin either.
>>46895689
Basically gamezone is THE company to get 28mm fantasy calvary from, their animal anatomy is superb but their infantry is...well it ain't bad but it's nothing to write home about either.
>>46895953
I love their not-Daemonettes.
>>46895845
I guess I'll post the pic of the actual miniature too.
I want mine to be a lot more vibrant than this.

>>46895845
Hmm, I'd be careful about having all three primaries (yellow/gold, red, blue) on the same mini - It tends to look a bit garish.
When I paint I tend to stick to one bright saturated colour, and then keep the rest somewhat muted.
Here is a very quick colour test I did, where I've focused on red. The brighest point is the head, and the rest are various reds broken with greys - mulberry. Contrasted by a deep purple on the lover wings and a pale green and grey-blue for skin and belly. Basically mix everything byt the red hair 50/50 with grey. Oh, and bright acid green gems.
Then I'd stear away entirely from Gold, and paint all of the metalics silver instead to not mesh with the palette.
At least, that's propably how I would aproach it, but its alot more muted than yours. Another aproach would be to swap you blue for a Violet - That would propably work out fine as well. Or just the gold for silver.
Here's a really great tutorial on painting bright red hair: http://www.hourofwolves.org/?view=articles&which=orangehairftw
Hope any of that is useful to you!and post pics when you get to painting it
>>46889521
>Expensive.
>Shit.
Not very cheap manufacturers there, and even less than do them in good quality, also I don't see any of it to be bad, they are very characterful.
>>46896367
>It tends to look a bit garish
Maybe, but I want this one to be very bright and colourful. Shiny blue scales, golden wings and the like. Making sure that an onlooker immediately recognizes this is a weird, magical and majestic creature. So I thought she'd be colourful like a parrot.
Basically this miniature is supposed to be my antidote for all the gray and black or dark blue I usually paint.
>>46896818
Makes sense - Know that feeling.
Peraps try to tie the different colours together by shading with the same tone, like a deep purple for both the red and the blue. In pic related I tried mixing in a little of the same purple both in the tail and the red part of the wings. It's basically the old GW liche purple in tone. Sorta red-ish and warm.
Another trick would be to repeat the same colour in multiple places, like making the gems in the crown the same blue as the tail. Anchors and ties together the different parts of the miniature.
>>46896897
I've tried shading dark blue with red washes before and the effect was nice. Going for the same tone on a lighter shade might be a good idea.
I think an Egyptian skin tone would work. Make up like this might look interesting, but I'm not entirely sure about it.
>>46897006
I think it works pretty well. The make up looks like it'll be hard to pull off, but I really like that it adds a 3rd point of repetition for both the red and the blue, and the skin seems to work well with the yellow.
Have you thought about hair colour? Id think either a Beige or Black could work really well.
>>46897069
I was thinking black, but beige... It's an interesting idea.
>>46897157
Might work, and also draw attention towards the face and work well with the bright blue tail.
You might also be able to go for a more saturated red on the gems.
Man, I am getting hyped for this miniature now. I need to paint it at some point as well.
>>46885307
I still can't find Advanced Song of Blades & Heroes anywhere on the net, I might have to actually pay for it.
What do you find works best in regular SoBH? I've had a few small games and enjoyed it, but I don't think we were using the right units really, turned into a bit of a turnover slogfest.
>>46897268
Okay, I think I have all I need. Now to get on the actual miniature.
>>46897367
I tend to keep most units at Q 4+ or 3+. 2+ is boring as you just 3 dice all activations which takes a lot of the tension out of the game, while 5+ is very unreliable and difficult to use (but fun for group activated rabble like goblins etc.)
Apart from that, its a question of learning when to throw how many dice, and what to do first in each turn. Of course, sometimes you roll snake eyes, but thats the terms of the game.
The real key, like in any game really, is to have a good scenario that forces people to not just slog it out in the middle, which, while fun for a bit, tends to get stale. Check out this compendium to get started: hour11gaming dot blogspot dot dk/2012/09/massive-update-to-whfbskirmish.html
In particular I recommend The Pit.
Once you get the hang of the system its pretty easy to improvise scenarios. As I said earlier, I am working on a card-driven objective for our local games.
Some things to experiment with:
1). Npc-type characters, either related to objectives (slay the dragon to steal its hoard) or just wandering the board to provide flavour and hazards to play around (roaming gangs of skeletons patroling a graveyard or a bear guarding its den and mauling anyone getting close). We use a variant of the Frostgrave creature ai to control neutral monsters.
2). Assymetrical objectives: Different warbands have different goals. Works really well in multiplayer games.
3). Magic Items: Have the objective be an item that can then be used in the scenario.

Here's an AAR I did when we started playtesting Fightin Fungi
www.lead-adventure dot de/index.php?topic=60121.msg920816#msg920816
Has anyone seen the AtlantisMiniatures range? They look awesome but I'm holding off until I see some quality reviews
>>46897588
>>46897613
Thanks a lot mate, very inspirational. I wish I had half of your effort.
>>46894257
Amazing. I'd love the chance to delve into the old world at this scale. I used to play a lot of Warmaster back in the day. What ruleset do you think people will use with these?
Could anybody suggest a 28mm Wizard that would look good next to the Gripping Beast Viikings?
>>46898502
Does kings of War require individual basing or could it handle tracking casualties by base or strip?
>>46900028
Red Box Minis might have something suitable.
I really like some of the Celtos ranges, currently from Brigade Models but they've been passed around a few companies in the past. They can be a bit stylised, but the (half-dressed) elves and orcs are cool, and some of the skeletons are rad as hell.
>>46900298
Those are elves, these are orcs.
>>46900312
And these are the raddest skeletons.
Also, Black Tree Designs do some great old-school warhammer knocks-offs, especially their orcs and goblins. They have a couple of other lines of orcs that don't look so good, but the main orcs and barbarian orcs and so on are purestrain old GW.
>>46900140
KoW doesn't do casualties, IIRC, "basing" is just "your whole unit has this footprint."
>>46894257
Just for painting or do you actuallyou play them also? What system uses 6mm?
>>46884605
Going the opposite direction, reminder that for the price of that you can get like two hundred plastic orcs and/or dwarves from em4. They... they can look great with conversion, but it's effort.
If you don't mind greenstuffing hats and repositioning limbs, you can get results like this crazy bastard: http://www.lead-adventure.de/index.php?topic=54131.90
>>46900298
>>46900312
>>46900333
In my humble opinion these are pretty awful by contemporary standards.
>>46900375
>>46898502
Seconded
>>46900580
I'd post mine, which I love dearly, but they're in a box somewhere ten miles away.
And there are no non-shit photos of them online.
I just find the style nice, you know? There are people out there who like the Irregular Miniatures fantasy figures, so I can still look down on them...
(attached: irregular goblins. I don't actually look down on people who like them, but)
>>46900703
I get what you mean. It's a style you enjoy.
>>46900828
Eh, it could be worse. Those em4 miniatures? I unironically like the dwarves, unconverted and unmodified.
I also use airfix 20mm robin hood figures as halflings, and buy toy castles to (slightly) convert into wargaming ones. Playmobil is ridiculously off-scale, but I just picked up a super cheap one of these (it's about a foot long) to convert into a weirdly-shaped outpost. Toy shit is the best.
>>46900375
>>46900608
Dunno, maybe I'd use them for Kings of War,. which doesn't care about scale and does not use True Line of Sight. It also doesn't care about exact number of units on a base as long as its clear what it represents and has the proper dimensions. People do that to sometimes make mini dioramas for bases.
So that 100mmx40mm base could be a troop of ten 28mm dudes, or it could be over a hundred tiny 6mm men.
Alternatively there is games meant for smaller scales like De Bellis Antiquitatis, Hordes of the Things, and I think Microworld has its own rules system. Might look into those.
Or maybe just play warmaster, not much difference between 6mm and 10mm.
Either way, buy a two or three small armies and you could probably get a friend or two to try a game of something with you.
Either way, I've been wanting to try getting into a scale smaller than 28mm. Originally I was thinking some Romans (pic related), but these NotOldWorldEmpire troops like a cool starting point.
>>46901076
Have you heard the good news about 3mm, friend?
http://www.magistermilitum.com/scale/3mm/srl2-3mm-marian-caesarian-legion.html
(oddzial osmy does amazing modern, ww2 & napoleonics, but these guys do some pretty nice romans - 3mm is WAY more detailed than the featureless rice grains you get in 2mm, though, it actually looks good)
Does anybody else do robed Goblins similar to GW Night Goblins?
>>46901425
http://eoeorbisuk.com/search?type=product&q=nightling
Black Tree Design or whatever they're called now, do some great classic warhammer knock-offs - you want the Nightlings. They were 40% off last week though, and their discounts change weekly. The prices are a lot more reasonable when they're discounted.
Their fanatics have the stupidest little weapons though, I can't stop giggling at how they've gone completely the opposite direction to GW.
>>46901476
Also, http://www.the-ninth-age.com/lexicon/index.php?entry/1519-miniatures-goblins/ has other suggestions, like the Black Hat ones.
http://www.blackhat.co.uk/product-category/28mm-miniatures/28mm-miniatures-shattered-isles-fantasy/28mm-miniatures-shattered-isles-fantasy-goblins/
>>46901519
Of course, they're about the same price but without the fairly-regular massive discount BTD give you. £1.50 each is a bit pricey for goblins, to me, but then I'm cheap.
>>46901535
The key element here is really that they've both been sculpted by Kev Adams. Dude's done a lot of ranges over the years.
>>46901425
Microworld does some 6mm gobbos.
Orcs/Goblins are one of their oldest fantasy lines, however, and don't look as good as their more recent stuff IMO.
>>46900222
Where is that goofy looking pig from?
>>46900298
>>46900312
>>46900333
Personally, I preferred the first wave, which was mainly sculpted by Kev White.
Whoever complained about photos was right, this model for example seems nice but the photo is tiny so its hard to tell for sure.
>>46901734
The majority of the character models are great. The grunts are kinda a mixed bag IMHO.
Are there any good American based miniature companies?
>>46901734
That's heavy metal as shit, it seems straight from a Slaine comic.
>>46902532
Reaper? It's a mixed bag in quality, but it has the best quality/price in monster imho.
Any cheap minis that would work well as statues without looking too elaborate or spooky?
>>46903029
Metal toy soldiers, when repainted, are a great solution for this. (Though they're harder and harder to find now)
>>46903029
How cheap do you want? Momminiatures has some cheap scenografy, now only dorfs, columns and a big skull, but they are in the cheap side (8-10euros for two dorf statues/colums or 10 for the skull)
>>46903029ebay sigmarines
>>46901717
http://www.lead-adventure.com/product_info.php?cPath=22&products_id=95 I'd think

>>46902532
depends what you're looking for. For fantasy not so much. lotta sci-fi and historical though.
Does Mierce Miniatures still count as a smaller manufacturer? They've kickstarted a LOT of miniatures over the last few years, so their portfolio has grown explosively, but they're still relatively small.
>>46903476
Fuck them. They're the Maelstrom guys, whose online store scammed a lot of people before they abandoned it and screwed even more customers.
They were worse than Wayland.
>>46903567
They so far have not scammed their KS backers, so I'm not sure they're the same people to be honest.
>>46903476
Mierce and Kingdom death probably make the coolest minis right now, the price is the only bad thing but to make little warbands is pretty good.

yeah the site-design is a bit early-90s, and quite hideous. They make nice miniatures though.

Thanks!

I love how simple that model is. Looks great.
can anybody give me a decent manufacturer of fantasy minis that does their shit with plastic? I'm not good at working with metal and all the smaller companies seem to exclusively use metal

Wayland Games? When did they scam people?

Northstar figures makes some pretty decent quality fantasy miniatures. Their boxes are plastic, though I'm not sure about their character models.
If you can dig one up, Wargames Factory had some good Orcs in the Tolkien style and perhaps the cheapest horde of skeleton box on the market. Warlord sells their stuff now but they've been dragging their feet something fierce.
And there's always Warhammer Fantasy for plastic infantry, but it can be pricey and moreso now that they're more limited quality.
Yeah, metal is more expensive per mini but cheaper for in-house building. Plastic injection is expensive as fuck, and only a larger operation or a manufacturer with the money can afford to shell out for that.

They were just really bad at inventory, never posting what they had in stock and ordering from the manufacturer direct, so you could end up waiting months on end for a simple shipment. Sometimes they just never delivered. They now post what's in stock and how much and what's not in stock at all, but there's still complaints about multi-month wait times.

Might have that slight 90's internet vibe to it, but even GW can't manage this.

I only stated that it was ugly, not that it didn't work.
It is a highly functional website, though their order-tracking system goes a bit *bork* if you have too much stuff sitting there waiting on dispatch (like several KS worth of models).
I'm down to a single page now, but that's still a ton of models, with multiple pages it didn't really work.

Yes they are. The head of Mierce is Rob Lane, the guy who ran Maelstrom into the ground and scammed the customers. tl;dr:
>Rob sets up Mierce as separate company
>Starts funnelling Maelstrom's funds into it without telling the staff
>Takes out loan against Maelstrom, puts all money into Mierce
>Maelstrom currently planning a warehouse move, things will get shipped once it's done
>Staff suddenly discover Maelstrom has gone bankrupt because Rob stole all the fucking money to fund his pet company Mierce
>Staff all lose their jobs
>Customers lose their money and models
>Rob gets off scott free
I live around Mansfield where they're based, everyone knows someone who got fucked over by Rob. Nobody will touch anything with his name on it.Also the game is a hot mess and costs more than WHFB to get into
I'm legit considering the Scribor Great Demon as a proxy for a Undivided Demon Prince in my CSM force.

Whatever happened to that Tim guy who worked there?
>>46905225
Well, there's a good reason not to buy from them. Shame, some of those models are amazing.
>>46903029
I bought cheap resin minis of these on eBay from China that came with free shipping.
