Title: Knight Models: Harry Potter Miniature Game.
Post by: supervike on January 06, 2017, 01:18:09 AM: I enjoyed the Harry Potter books and thought the movies were decent. I think they were well done, but I can't say I'm a huge fan, but I appreciate the well designed and thought out characters and plots.

However, for some inexplicable reason I am really excited about Knight Models New Offering

They just released a pic of their first character, Mad Eye Moody on Instagram (i'm not on instagram, but you can still view the pic)

Gorgeous sculpting!

I just told my wife about this new game today and she sounded quite excited...maybe I can convince her that I should buy it and paint it up so that we can play a game that she would enjoy... ???
Regards,

I wouldn't get my hopes up high, there - IP royalties et al...

For sure.

Extremely nice model but it screams $$$$$ to me. And it is "35mm" when I am trying to stay the course with 3/6/15/18mm.

And, your fantastic painting style would be well suited for such detail!

Post by: Johnno on January 31, 2017, 11:59:24 PM: What's wrong with the rules?
Or you think they'll be crap?

Post by: Argonor on February 01, 2017, 09:26:57 PM: Oh, yes, the rules... :?

Seems Mark Latham is somewhat involved in the game development.

Post by: Argonor on March 22, 2017, 08:54:31 PM: I must say, I am a bit disappointed by the 'Norma Jean' Harry.

Can't they just make some 'normal' poses instead of all that swirling/flying stuff... :?
