True, all very promising.

Found my Black Hat figures (two hunters, a priest sorceror and another vampyr, add that to the other five 'bound' vampires (ideas for vampyr entrapment after watching Mr Vampire again ;)) and there's plenty to choose from. I'll have a better idea as to what I'm doing once the rules arrive.

Also there's a demo game running at Bovington Ian so get your faction painted and bring along? (Yes I said you get them painted: stop sniggering!) :D

Bleeding 'ell two of the best miniature ranges around and you want more suggestions... that's a challenge.

You'll need to model your martial artists figures with pieces of paper (with Taoist spells written on them) instead of hand weapons 8)

You definitely know how to hunt Chinese undead!  :D

I have those OG among my Chinese Pirates and Rioters as well as Wild West.

I own these OG minis too. They were a great deal. Not the prettiest miniatures in the world but they have a lot of cool weapons.
I posted mine in my mythos thread.

Cheers. I try ;)

How about a few shots with LAM and Westwind Figures for scale comparison?

Cheers

Basically just a re-skinning of the Nosferatu faction, but how about something based on the 7 Golden Vampires from the Hammer Movie!

Not quite, as Baggy pointed out, I can go in three directions with this, Gentleman's Club, vamps and weres. Just waiting on the rulebook due tomorrow and I can start working this through. Looking for more oriental mythos stuff currently. Hellderado stuff looks really nice, but I think a little too big.

Onward search engine onward!

I've got an unpainted pack of these fellows you can have if you'd like to work out a trade:


Good luck! Looking forward to seeing progress!
