Hi folks!
It's time for me to show my works of the last three months.
I have been busy working on a snirfneblin army made up from Dixon Dwarves, my best friend bought long before the internet came to be used outside military personnel.

Have a look:














It's not entirely sure, on which side they will start in the everlasting conflict of Brügelburg.

Cheers

They seemed to stand up pretty well after all these years.

They look pretty damned good to me.
 :-* :-*

I may have to take a look at these Dixon fellas.
They may fit the bill for when I get back to LotR.
Eventually....

They are BEAUTIFULLY painted AND placed in a LOVELY setting. VERY WELL DONE!

Funny thing, I was just thinking of pre-internet purchase. A prolonged wait for an order, brought to mind mailing order forms; then waiting a couple of months for delivery...the old days weren't all that good on occasion.

I was thinking the same too. They do look like they will fit nicely, especially those in the second image - anyone have any comparison shots?

They are really old school, true 25mm and therefor just under halfling height for heroic purposes.

I will try to take a shot tomorrow .

The Little Folk are WONDERFUL creations BEAUTIFULLY painted. Their expressive faces make the minis for moi. VERY WELL DONE!

I have a paint-for-minis-trade-commission working with a couple of Friends from Tom's Boring Mordheim Forum. The Prof's Dwarfs are high on my trade list. AND I have the G.W. Dwarf Wizard along with an assortment of Old Citadels waiting for some attention.

I think the dwarves look ok (size), painting they look great.

If you think they are short, maybe they are only young dwarves, or underfed orphans.


For more wizardy type dwarves, Trent used to have some (in Russian garb)
Gary, Glynis, and Alasdair (there are three of us, but we are too mean to have more than one login)
