Ziggurat Minis from Lucid Eye
« on: June 26, 2019, 05:14:15 AM »
I am interested in these,  but unsure about quality and size compared to other minis.
Any kind of  experience from a fellow member with these minis will be appreciated 😊

Thanks Thomas
These days it's Wargods and Warhammer Armies Project I am working on !

Not held one, but they look big... (on purpose)

The Lucid Eye figures are superb quality BTW. I just received an order the other day. Fantastic sculpts.  :-*

They are gorgeous, as all Lucid Eye are, but the price is very steep. Gulial is is a not-Goliath for the Sea Peoples/Philistines, thus he is indeed intended to be huge. The rest scale up very nicely w Foundry, Redoubt, and the North Star ancients.

Lucid Eye used to do a range of hoplites sculpted by Steve Saleh which were compatible with Foundry Greeks clearly has he did a lot of those as well.

Hi Thomas,                                                                                                                                                   I'm guessing your asking if the Lucid Eye figures will go with your War Gods figures? I have plenty of WarGods Greeks and bought some of the LE Atlanteans to see the same thing. I glued my LE figures straight to a slotta base without taking off the cast on  base.The regular troopers are slightly taller(maybe a mm) than a WG Spartan hoplite and maybe a tad less bulky. Overall not a bad fit.
BTW That not goliath is a must, ordered earlier tonight.
Pete

Yes Pete,

you got it perfectly right  ;)

The Wargods are the core of my fantasy ancient collection, which I complement with other manufacturers like Mythic Battles Pantheon. Ziggurat and the Northstar's sea people range are on my list as well.

Thanks for the detailed descripton  :)

cheers Thomas

If you do get any of the sea peoples let us know how they size up. Because they are a historical range he sculpted before the Lucid Eye I wasn't sure if they would be as big.

The North Star Sea People are older sculpts, but they are quite big, and match up perfectly w the Crocodile Mycenaeans I have. The new one pictured w Gulial.isnt even out yet, but I'm hoping  they are all compatible.

I had a lot of Foundry Greeks in my ancients army. I wouldnt say they are compatible with War Gods figures at all. Closest of the bunch were the Foundry Argonauts that fit ok. So what I'm saying is Lucid Eye Atlanteans are kind of in between Wargods and Foundry so fit with both but Wargods and Foundry are , IMHO, not compatible.

They are gorgeous. Got a couple of their Savage Core models so the quality speaks for itself :-).

There are two ranges of Foundry Greeks that are very different sizes....

Yep and once again, IMHO ,neither one fit with Wargods figures. Heights might be close but bulk and style are just too far off for me. I'm not trying to be argumentative but reading some of the responses up thread,  I wanted Thomas to be aware that  there are differences of opinion on this . Wargods, Foundry, Northstar, Redoubt( which to be brutally honest are awful) and Lucid Eye do not ALL seamlessly match each other. In my opinion.
