Title: RuneCast-Miniatures: Lansquenet-Dwarfs, Beastkin and Bits
Post by: wulfen777 on 22 November 2013, 02:27:41 PM
Hiho there

I have finally managed to get my own miniature series online
and would like to present my Lansquenet-Dwarfs to the Fantasy-interested gamers:

My Beastkin:

Furthermore Human Long Bones, which might be useful for conversions or base-decoration:

Finally Bascinets:

Bascinets with "Klappvisier":

Bascinets with side-pivoting visor:
(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-E281hYDGUbE/UoePv39ttoI/AAAAAAAABNY/skb1pdI6dHg/s320/3001+Beckenhauben+mit+Visier+01.jpg)(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LkTNpfR9a5o/UoePwIxnH3I/AAAAAAAABNs/uK2IfYRKO4U/s320/3001+Beckenhauben+mit+Visier+02.jpg)

My aim was to provide alternative head variants for 30mm heroic scale miniatures with a more historically correct approach, so much time went into the research before I started sculpting.
This was done using literature such like books of the Funcken-couple, Osprey, etc, but also the internet and even visiting museums.

The Miniatures and Bits are cast in a high-quality tinn alloy. Bases for the miniatures are included.

That is a FINE LOOKING array of minis...being BEAUTIFULLY painted & based only adds to that impression. The Goat Guy & the Boar Boy have a lot of appeal for moi. I wish you the BEST of luck with your endeavors...GREAT WORK!

Really nice figures - I'm afraid they are priced far outside of anything I can afford!

Wonderful, but far too expensive for me I'm afraid

Hi Gregor,

I love the beautiful and characterful dwarfs and want them. So please do some more of them. My Empire army needs some reinforcements.

Ciao

Hi Elmar

Rest assured that there will be much more of the Dwarfs.

I consider them to be the "flagship" of my miniature line and so they will be the very first faction to receive more reinforcements.

Cheers,

Gregor

Yarp. There can't be too much of them, so more additions will follow... :D

The new additions are SPLENDID! You manage to get an ample amount of character/personality in all of your creations. The flashy Renaissance apparel is a definite plus. GREAT WORK!

Easily some of the best dwarf minis out there!!

Why, thanks for the kind words, much appreciated.

A guy called Fernando from Portugal who is also pretty much into Lansquenet Style keeps sending me beautiful coeval pictures of "Landsknechte".
Thus I am in good hopes that I have plenty of inspiring material to keep up the standard.  :)

Hi there.

I hope it is good news when I announce that I have some new Dwarfs to share.
These three are already available at PK-PRO like the rest of my line:

(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AJraOJBRzLE/U0a9dNwKb0I/AAAAAAAABV0/w7xPmBxsuXk/s1600/0004+Zwerge+Bidenh%25C3%25A4nder+Schwertspieler+1+01.JPG)

Then I can share with you two more yet unreproduced sculpts.

While the first features a more aggressive stance the second one keeps more of a relaxed pose enjoying a lusty in-between meal before the Orc-bashing continues.

http://runecast-sculpts.blogspot.de/2014/07/a-hungry-swordplayer.html (http://runecast-sculpts.blogspot.de/2014/07/a-hungry-swordplayer.html)

That leaves me having to sculpt one more Swordplayer in order to reach my goal of 6 troopers for this unit and being able to fill the next mould with enough miniatures.

Unfortunately this means that it will take some more time before I can offer these for purchase.  :(

Cheers,

Gregor
