Delighted to see someone else sees the potential for detail in 15 mm - someone with more talent than I!  Love the work, dedication and patience in spades to achieve such a high level of quality.

My great lament, slowly being remedied, its that there are not more "detail" parts made in this scale.  The recent Blue Moon saloon sets are good.  There has been the stuff from Hallmark that I hope is still available.  A few things scattered through the Peter Pig ranges.  I think if someone put out a good range of 15 mm detail stuff there'd be a good interest in it. 

I greatly admire the artwork done in 28mm (and so much seen on this forum) but I'm delighted with 15 mm because it so greatly expands the size of the table proportionately.  If I weren't so deep into 15 mm (about 30,000 figures now.  Ouch!  I'll still be painting after I'm dead.) I'd jump into 10mm.  In that scale you can tell they're sending cavalry towards your flank - but just what are they.  You won't know until they get closer.

Great work on those details and that town.

As a means of slowly helping to remedy the detail issue mentioned in my post above I've started a yahoo forum dedicated to 15 mm figures.  Love this forum but just thought it would be good for those of us dedicated to 15 mm to have one where we don't have to sift through the other scale chatter (valid though all that chatter is) to get responses related to our inquiries.  But mostly its just a place to share.

If you are in to 15 mm figures, here is the link:

a new painted mini: the "soiled dove"
I had to resculpt some parts of the miniature because I wasn't satified enough by the original sculpt and the casting.
here is the result

That is amazing for 15mm scale. I would be happy with that level of detail in 28mm.

 :oBloody Hell!! Stunning detail for 15mm or any scale. Makes me wish I'd started with 15mm rather than 28mm. A town on a normal table top..... Wonderful stuff Antaak!

DAMN GREAT DETAIL LEVEL! This chinese lok like 28mm fig!

2 Cholly

Thats the reason I love 15mm. You can have whole town on normal table... By the way do you want to know what can you have on BIG table?

Here! Its like level map from Call of Juarez!!!!
