Best Dwarves?
« on: December 25, 2012, 05:37:24 PM »
Hi everyone!
First of all: Merry Christmas!

Beside of that, i am looking for a friend of mine for some nice looking dwarves, half a dozen or so. I'm looking for some very comic-like faces and dressings, possibily available all from the same distributor, and with a moderate price (max  5 euros each)

Any idea? What can you suggest me?

Thanks

Jack

Both of the indications were not in my thoughts, and i have to say that both are very interesting! and both very comic-like!

Kudos to White Knight for the new models, i was still remembering the first pieces, now you have a proper line, and the quality is very good!

At the moment, since the friend of mine is on the very beginning (though she is extremely talented, her first miniature was ways better than the best efforts of some of my more expert friends) we're thinking about a little regiment of WestWind dwarves... some are very nice!

But other ideas are very welcome!

My favourite Dwarfs are these ones:

They aren't comical but they are really well proportioned and have some great armour/chainmail:

For some one looking for just a few I would suggest any of the Ratnik sculpts from LAM.  If they are looking for a unit then go with White Knight.

Other than that I would find a group of the old citadel Norse dwarfs...but not real easy to just run out and grab some.

Cheers,

The above suggestions are great, especially LAM and WK.

Fenryll also has a great range of characterful dwarves. I especially like their Northern Dwarves.

Black Hat are work a look and fit in rather well with the Foundry ones. I like the WK ones too and plan on adding to my BH ones once finished :D
