[Crowdfunding] Classic Fantasy Miniatures in 1/72 scale
« on: January 23, 2020, 05:26:20 PM »
Hey all,

I'm a huge fan of the 1/72 scale and use it for fantasy RPGs and fantasy wargaming all the time 8)
For me the 1/72 scale is the best of both worlds: 28mm and 15mm

That's why I'm very happy, that the manufacturer Elhiem (UK) has started a small crowdfunding campaign for some classic fantasy miniatures in 1/72 scale (aka 20mm in wargaming):
https://www.elhiem.co.uk/ourshop/prod_6988667-VOTE053-Fantasy-RPG-PHASE-1.html

I know the excellent quality and service of Elhiem and I was happy to invest a few pounds into it. Maybe some of you guys are also willing to invest 1-2 pounds and help to realize it!
Just  £17 left to get it started  :o

Those are the miniatures, that will be made:
  • Wizard, pointy hat (Human Male)
  • Cleric in robes (Elf Female)
  • Warrior in Armour (Human)
  • Ranger (Elf)
  • Thief (halfling)
  • Barbarian Male human
  • Evil Wizard in hooded robe
  • Sorceress
  • Death Knight
  • Female Warrior
  • Lich
  • Special Figure: Halfling with a Tankard

The following photos are some examples of Elhiem's 1/72 miniatures of other genres, so you see what to expect  :D
In my experience they match perfectly in size with 1/72 plastic figures! (e.g. the awesome Dark Alliance fantasy sets)

best regards
