Some Dwarves...
« on: June 29, 2010, 03:42:30 PM »
Hello everyone! I've introduced myself already (in the Introductions section of the boards appropriately enough), but this is my first post here in the Fantasy section.

I was looking at Svennn's Splintered Light miniatures in another thread (great work), and was inspired to post some of my own.
Svennn:http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=20376.0

These Dwarves are from Splintered Light as well...



The next two photos show them alongside their GW brothers for a size comparison...

More Splintered Light goodness (I've really got to get my mitts on some of their wares)!  Great job, VoodooInk.

They are really, really nicely done. May have to get some, like the animals I have not got a clue what I would do with them except paint them.

Very nice - would look good with my burgeoning citadel gnome warband (of should that be fishing party!  ;)).

Haven't really heard of Splintered Light before but I might have to check them out!

Excellent paint jobs! I love the red on the helmets, I would never have thought of using red there, but it really makes them pop.

Thanks for all the kind feedback.

@Thantsants
These guys would definitely make great gnomes! Any pics of this warband yet?

@Luckyjoe
Thanks! At that scale, I was trying to do something that would give them that extra bit of 'pop'. I'm glad it worked.

@Svenn
You could always use them to play 2010 Origins Award Nominated HAVOC!  ;) (full disclosure: it's my game, so I'm kind of biased)

@VoodooInk, I'm interested in your rules. Are there any review and/or battle reports of it?
Thanks,

@blacksmith

Thanks for the interest! As far as I know, the only reviews online at this time are the 2 on the amazon.com listing. I traveled to Atlanta,Ga to do a demo for a gaming group there on June 19, and I expect a review will be issued based on our session and their subsequent plays.  :)

The community here seems to be a perfect fit for my game, as you can use any miniatures in your collection. I would love to get the book into the hands of some of the members here on the LAF for them to play and post their impressions (reviews). Maybe we can work something out...  ;)

OK, thanks VoodooInk, I can wait. There are so many games to try that I don't mind to wait for reviews and BATREPS before deciding to buy it.
Cheers,
