Always liked the look of these and then put them to one side when I saw their size, finally got around to doing one today and will definately be doing more.

I like the red on that  :)

Are they from Japanese mythology or just some fantasy foxes?

(I'll also get the missus to look at that web site tomorrow)

As WK correctly suggested - Splintered Light fantasy, a lot more Redwall than the Orient

I loved the Redwall books as a kid - lovely paint job by the way!

Very nice indeed 8)

I, too, would like to paint some some day
A CANADIAN local hobby store with a small selection of historical wargames miniatures (mainly from Warlords). They also have a great selection of paint and hobby accessories from Vallejo, Army painter, AK Interactive, Green Stuff World and more.; https://www.kingdomtitans.ca/us/

Neat paint job.
I do need to complain that the shading on his fingers is to dark, but overall it's a lovely package.

I'm going to need to remember this company, what's the scale on these furry little devils?

Indeed they do, and they're a great company to deal with. I ordered a huge lot of these last summer. They are now neatly packed away in a cupboard. =)

Great mini and really nice paint job.

Thanks for posting this as I really like these models but wasn't sure of how they scaled next to 28mm humans/humanoids. I'm planning on using a few of the hedgehogs and squirrels as woodland sprites on the bases of some fantasy elves.
