After you have bleached your brain from my previous post, here's something oldish from Shadowforge. If I ever start Blood Bowl, this shall be my gang: Shadowforge is one of the few mini companies I know that has failed, in my opinion, to increase its sculpting quality significantly during the years it has been around. There are still some jewels of sheer insanity, like the . |

This one was once voted the top model modlers love to hate I'm told it was the worse to put together, now I'm told it's the nastiest to put together and also the nastiest to play against. |

From the upcoming Pathfinder minis range: Just on its own, I'm not a fan of this guy... Its skin is orange (is it an Oompa Loompa, from Loompa Land? Did it pop into our world, discover tanning salons, and find a portal back?), and the sculpt isn't generally to my taste. Then compare it to any of the dwarves in the pre-painted DDM range (that I've seen), and it gets worse by comparison. For my money, if we've moved the game to the table and are putting minis down, it's because a fight is happening, and this guy really ought to look like he's in a fight. There is a place for non-combatants, but if I'm going to get a bunch of these guys in a case (like I'd expect to), I want my armored, axe-wielding dwarves to be in the thick of things. Maybe if this guy was a leader, and there were dwarf minions, that would be fine (if there were only a few of these per case and they looked a lot nicer, almost like a centerpiece to a force of dwarves). This pose could be used for a guy that was grimly surveying the battle around him, waiting for the right time to ponderously stride toward his doomed foe (or without warning fleche into the fray like a fencer). That could be cool. But if he's the only dwarf in the set, isn't all that appealing to look at, and he's a fighter? He should be fighting. Then there's this one: I don't even know where to start. Why is its skin orange? Why doesn't it have fur? Why does it look like Cerebus if you imagine it without those horns? In short, why doesn't this model look like a minotaur? |

Steampunk is so 'in' at the moment. Yup. I want those heads too, but having a lack of use for them, I can't bring myself to buying them. |

I really wish there was something like that in cheap pre-paints. I just can't seem to bring myself to start another hobby. Painting things right takes skill and I would have to learn it...which takes time and money. |

Ummm, you paint this one.... From . Maow Miniatures is an... odd company - one that makes no profit. The sales from each miniature is used to buy the sculpts for the next. The Auld Grump |
