Title: Looking for Angels
Post by: Mad Carew Snr on March 25, 2009, 09:06:21 AM: I have this crazy idea of doing another new project - Weird WW1.
Does anyone know who makes Angels in 25/28mm ? I want some for Angels of Mons.

Any suggestions?

Post by: Doc Twilight on March 25, 2009, 09:43:39 AM: You know, I was going to suggest Black Cat, but I think for what you seem to be aiming for, Rhoderic's right. West Wind or RAFM. There are also some angels in the Reaper range that might work well.

Because if its the latter, then you can't do better than the one Heresy sell:

He is a big bugger though. As befits an agent of the lord's righteous fury, if you ask me.

Post by: richarDISNEY on March 25, 2009, 02:04:28 PM: I was thinking that there are a few in the Hell Dorado range. I think I saw some there.

Also the West Wind Lucifer Wars has a ton.

Post by: Scorpio on March 25, 2009, 04:34:23 PM: Yeah, Reaper has had more than a few over the years. Even a boxed set, at one point, if I remember correctly.

Yes, those are very pretty. Consider the angelic beings from Rackham.

Post by: Lowtardog on June 17, 2009, 09:16:46 AM: Hasslefree sell separate sets of wings might be worth picking them up for conversions?
Title: Re: Looking for Angels
Post by: Malkcntent on June 18, 2009, 11:29:56 PM: Rackham had some cool 'Angels of Light' models; I think it's a two-model blister, that was really nice. It's from their now 'old' metal Confrontation range, so not sure how easy to find, but probably cheap and look really good.

Post by: wolfgangbrooks on June 21, 2009, 01:44:13 AM: There's one from the Dreamblade series of an angel holding a Tommy-gun. It's 40-54mm tall.

Post by: HerbyF on June 21, 2009, 01:50:37 AM: Reaper does several very nice angels. I think they even have a boxed set. They used to anyway.
Title: Re: Looking for Angels
Post by: Hauptgefreiter on June 21, 2009, 10:45:09 AM: There's also Celestine from the GW 40k Witch Hunter range, although she has a cloak instead of wings and wears armor. I don't think it'll work for you, but might want to have a look and decide then for yourself. :)

Post by: aircav on June 24, 2009, 02:20:44 PM: Have you looked at the Heroclix JLA figures, i have an angel from there that i had the same idea. :D

It's odd but I see angels as more inkeeping with WWI for some reasons, this bloody nice angel mini sweeping over Ypres or the Somme.

Very nice though lovely infact.
