I think I'm in love...
« on: March 26, 2010, 04:37:08 PM »
So I was browsing miniature artwork to find a suitable female figure for a vampire conversion when I stumbled across an amazing range of fantasy miniatures based on Elmore style artwork.  I normally don't pay much attention to fantasy miniatures but I happened to notice a few that really struck me that I will have to add to my purchase and paint list.

A Gypsie Witch....maybe





An Evil Female Cultist Leader







A Cultist Summoning...





An Arab Swordsman...A Cultist Swordsman



Anyway...the size appears to be comparible.  It would definately add some spice to a game to have a scantily clad villianess to the mix.

Yep some amazing sculpts those i have a couple of Human Fighters or something like that i bought a while back now.

But you could certainly use any of those as cultists.

Lupus,

Does the size scale up to most of our other pulp ranges?

Pretty much yes fits in just right.  I'll see if i can find some in the horde for comparison.

I have the priestess and summoner figures pictured. They're very good figs, though more in the style of Haggard or Howard than Lovecraft IMO.

Size-wise they're about the same as Hasslefree's stuff. Very finely detailed too. They're very noticeably trying for a more realistic/less stylized look than a lot of other companies figures, so although they don't clash in size, they may still stand out.
History viewed from the inside is always a dark, digestive mess, far different from the easily recognizable cow viewed from afar by historians.

An Evil Female Cultist Leader



My take on this, from a couple of years back.

Thanks,

Hammers that is a very nice cult display.

Do you recall who produced the swordsman with the decapitated head and the nude female with the knife and heart?

Hammer's, or anyone that would know, the hooded cultists in your group shot are by what manufacturer?
I think they are from Hasselfree, but are they close to 28mm?
