28mm Heroic Japanese Weapons for Conversions
« on: December 24, 2021, 10:36:37 PM »
I thought I'd tap the LAF hivemind as I'm currently looking for some "heroic" scale katanas and naginata and the like for some conversions. Reaper has a weapon pack that has a nice sized katana, but it's the only one in the pack so that could get costly and leave me with far more medieval/fantasy weapons than I'll ever use. I know TAG has some in the "heroic" vain, but they look pretty void of much detail.

Any help is much appreciated!  :)

Thanks James. I chose a more "chunky" path for my Fantasy Japan heroes, and the standard fare seems to be slight and slimmer than my needs.

I thought of that too. The minis are heroic for sure, but he doesn't sell weapon packs. Maybe I'll fire Dave an email anyway.

Dixon have a lot separate weapons, they are labelled as 25mm but definately not small:

Thanks Traveller. I have some, and they're still too small for my needs. I think Kingsford is the way to go.
