Like the Conquista-Elves, who makes them?

They are made by a guys called Mike Broadbent, here in Australia.

A mate of mine will be selling them soon on a new miniature site called "Slave 2 Gaming." The sites not up and running yet, My mate is just looking ATM into what he can sell and where his markets are. He did mention that there are some more Undead Samurai in the planning, but hasn't said too much yet.

I'll pass on the interest and if you are keen I'll get him to contact you. Dont know about prices yet, sorry

UBERCOOL! The Elves are particularly so. They could be a pike & shot spin off on Flintloque. VERY IMAGINATIVE STUFF!

I really like the skeletal samurai.

The elves are OK. I like the concept. But they've got some fantasy-gaming-sized-shoulder-pad syndrom going on, especially the spearmen. Mind you, this is a long standing nit-pick I've got with a lot of fantasy figures. But imagine the leader wants to lift his sword arm directly up, away from his body (to the side.) He's going to raise his arm about 30 degrees and then either impale it on the downward pointy end of the pauldron, or the pauldron will rotate on his shoulder and he will get smacked upside the head with the vertical flange near his neck. They would look better if either smaller, segmented, or both. The ones on the swordsmen look much better. The mail armour also looks a bit inconsistent. Can't tell if that's all sculpting or a bit of a paint issue, too. The poses on all of the elves are really nice & dynamic.

Keen to see some new fantasy mishmash ideas. Those samurai are great!

What I really wish I could find is basically a skeletal d'Artagnan or Alatriste.
