Title: For my new dwarf army in 15mm I want pikes also
Post by: Conquistador on 30 May 2016, 07:30:54 PM
Or at the very least long spears!

The earlier post about pikes to match my for sale Ral Parth arquibusiers has corrupted me and now I want a formation of 15mm pike dwarf figures as an element of just started dwarf army.

You cannot stop the insanity but you can point me to sources for pike dwarf figures!   o_o

The nearest thing I can think of would be the Marauder Miniatures pike dwarves from ages ago, the leader had a fantastic Morion helmet and pistol. I thing the guy who did these gave them longer spears, I remember mine being much chunked.... just checked other pictures and they are normally much stouter.

Good basis for some conversions though!

Wow, how unhelpful am I? Those are 28mm, so useless for you...d'oh!

Best of luck and it sounds like a great project.

Highlander Studios has a small line that might work for you. He does sculpts for a number of American 15mm companies.

No sweat.  Happens a lot.  Those are nice figures!   Appreciate the effort.

The pikes and half pikes look good!  Friday is Payday so hopefully an order goes in this weekend.

Thanks!

If you're after a more classic Dwarvan look in 15mm for pike/long spear, the Dwarians (http://www.battlevalorgames.com/dwarianspearmenwithshields35figures.aspx) from Battle Valor Games might be worth a look.

Copplestone castings have 15mm dwarves with spears,they have a dark ages style though,so may not  be suitable. ???
