They are both real nice entries. I really like the barbarians. They would look great if they were 28mm but the are brilliant being only 15mm!
-
Is the tallest one of the curious cases another from West Wind's Vampire Wars line? I don't seem to recognize it. Nice work from both competitors, regardless!

Gosh those cavalry are nice, really good looking horse colours.

Thanks.
They are from the lovely 15mm Copplestone Barbarica range.

I don't think I've ever seen a 15mm horse painted as well as these. Beautiful, just beautiful.

WOW! Stunning horses and I also like the buildings in the background.

No, our dear LAM (http://www.lead-adventure.com/product_info.php?cPath=25&products_id=193). Haven't you read the messages from our sponsor? ;) I needed a fifth figure and happened to have this one handy. Their (hair)styles match but this guy appears taller. I guess he's more jumpy, less hunched, and has long legs...

Nearly forgot to say how much i like your pic Dolmot.
The dark sky and house in the woods really gives it that horror look that fits the figures.
Are you using them for a skirmish game or a RPG? It would be nice to see some more of the collection or some pics of one of your games.

Right, I haven't forgot about this one yet. There was just a certain deadline and other pressing matters, you see...

"Searchers after horror haunt strange, far places. For them are the catacombs of Ptolemais, and the carven mausolea of the nightmare countries. They climb to the moonlit towers of ruined Rhine castles, and falter down black cobwebbed steps beneath the scattered stones of forgotten cities in Asia. The haunted wood and the desolate mountain are their shrines, and they linger around the sinister monoliths on uninhabited islands. But the true epicure in the terrible, to whom a new thrill of unutterable ghastliness is the chief end and justification of existence, esteems most of all the ancient, lonely farmhouses of backwoods New England; for there the dark elements of strength, solitude, grotesqueness and ignorance combine to form the perfection of the hideous."
Now that was poetic...but among the reasons why I chose this setting over, say, Arkham asylum. (The others were hurry, laziness and running out of imagination. lol And I already did a city scene on round 7.)

Maniacs appear in Strange Aeons and Arkham Horror (the lead version) so they're useful there and in similar CoC games. We also play some Carnevale, where the Ospedale gang has madmen. Some of these can be used there as well without too much stretching. Then there's this multiplayer participation game I'm running in special events. The most complete report from those can be found here (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=56630.0). (Quite pic heavy. Watch out.)
Practically all of this collection has been photographed at some point in some way but it's scattered here and there. Sometimes I'm told I "should" set up a gallery or something but I "should" do many other things too. It's faster said than done. I can try if this matter manages to cross my mind again at a free moment. It's just that whenever I have time for hobbies, I prefer producing new stuff or in a lucky case even playing a game or two over documenting old things.
This weekend I'm just resting, sorry. :)
