Really nice work. I like the black colour scheme and the basing in particular.
Seconded!  :)

Some dwarfs from Conqueror Models.  The blue and white color scheme was inspired from the old WFB Dwarf book (3rd or 4th edition?) against the night goblins. 





Some close ups of the bases

Fourth, that unit almost got me collecting dwarfs.

These look great, the scheme really suits them.

I love that colour scheme - it really works well.

How do these miniatures scale up against the Games Workshop Lord of the Rings ranges (both metal and plastic)?

Really lovely job on those as well. The bases are ace!

And now I have a bit of early 90s Scandi-pop music running through my head.

Me too, I was right before GW changed the look and I never really got into dwarfs.  I absolutely love these figures though.

Thank you!  This blog (not my blog) has some size comparisons https://wargameterrain.blogspot.com/2017/10/conqueror-models-dark-age-dwarf.html?m=1

Always loved those figures and the painting and especially the basing have set an idea in my head of using my unpainted Foundry Norse WHFB army and the painted Beastman army for a similar endeavour...consider your basing idea appropriated sir!  Great work keep them coming!

Excellent!  Go for it, let me know if you have any questions regarding anything.

I agree, they really are.  I have another unit of spear-dwarfs and then will expand to other units.
