Title: NobGoblins
Post by: Bob Murch on 25 June 2025, 07:54:05 PM: These buggers are about as basic as you get. The Nobgoblins are a throw-back to the era of Fantasy I grew up in. Frazetta book covers, Heavy Metal magazine, Ral Partha Orcs. These minis are general purpose subterranean baddies suitable for Fantasy, Horror and Pulp genres.

I've done two weapon/shields equipment sets for them, metal and stone age.

Not quite ready for release. I might hold a Kickstarter if the economic situation is stable enough, ie. no rapid swings in exchange rates or tariff uncertainty.

They will also be available through North Star.

I can see me getting some of those when they become available - been looking for some goblinoid baddies for a while and these tick the right boxes.
Nicely done sir.

I've painted all my (some very old) Goblins red brick, still following the AD&D Monster Manual as when I painted the first of them. :) But this blue-ish colour is interesting too.
