Quest for glory project.

beefcake:
The quest for glory series is my all time favourite computer game series (closely followed by Baldurs Gate) I'm aiming to collect a series of miniatures and paint them to look like the monsters and characters just for the sake of it.
I don't have any miniatures so far and it will be a long time getting the correct ones. Here are my ideas so far.
The hero - Cullen from Reaper to serve as the hero - fighter

Liontaur, Lion centaur from Ironwind
http://ironwindmetals.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=8088
Katta, Shameen and Shema Different miniatures from Studio 38 Khaliman republic (probably the Sheik and the female from the starter set)
http://www.fantization.com/khalimanrepublickh.aspx
Mantray

Still plenty of other monsters for me to research. Plenty of goblins out there. I'm sure to find some Brigands, Goons and Ogres and Trolls will also be relatively easy. Cheetaurs will be a bit more difficult and will probably require some putty work. The minotaur will be rather easy too. If anyone has any ideas I'd be glad to hear them. Especially about finding appropriate theif and mage characters that fit the protagonists look.
Thanks

It's Alive!
Okay so I've sourced some photos of what I need to get this project that barely got started back up and running.
Any suggestions would be great bearing in mind that getting each mini from a different manufacturer will cost a bucket load sent to NZ.
Saurus - perhaps some raptors from reaper http://www.reapermini.com/graphics/gallery/4/03021_w_1.jpg Or to thit this and the rex in one go I could get the deinonychus and nanotyranus from Copplestone
Saurus Rex (Big Bro) if I could find a 54mm raptor that could be suitable. Probably best bet is a wingless dragon of some sort.
Brigand. Any ideas for this guy (doesn't need the Mo as there are a few different versions in the game, all similarly dressd though.) He kind of has a roman look to him. Perhaps perry miniatures. Armour not quite right though. https://www.perry-miniatures.com/product_info.php?products_id=1777&osCsid=i1ovj1vc16hhd9f9f6qvtfqae6
Brigand Leader - Female
Possibly http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/female%20human%20cloak/sku-down/03515
Or http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/female%20human%20cloak/sku-down/03129
Brigand Warlock - Yorrick
Goblin - I'm thinking about some Asgard goblins for this guy as I have some of their goblins with spears at themoment but may have to go for one with a hand weapon and have been meaning to buy some of their dwarves and such for a while.
Troll - I have a version for this miniature although he is a lot fatter than the actual image
Minotaur. I have a minotaur already lined up for this guy and have a conversion ready to make a flail.
Mantray - Probably get a manta ray from Reaper that I saw that looked good. http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/manta/sku-down/03605
Cheetaur
Ogre (miniature would be holding a treasure chest if possible)
Kobold (sorry for the poor photo) I'm thinking of some sort of unarmed goblin mage. Will check my goblin stock for this guy.
Heroes - I have a fighter from Reaper minis for the hero but haven't been able to find a magic user or a thief (cape needed)
Hero (EGA colours which I'll be using except for the skin tone)
Anyway, thanks for looking. I'll hopefully get along with the project now although I have a baby due in the next couple of days (well my wife does) so that may make things slow going.
white knight:
I used to have Quest for Glory IV. Cool game which would make some great inspiration for the tabletop.
beefcake:
Yep. I liked number 4 a lot. Probably second best of the series, biased by nostalgia of course. ;)
Daeothar:
I loved that game, even though I was forced to play it on a 8086 with a monochrome (amber) monitor
I was in highschool at the time and I remember making a map of the entire game area, drawing each and every screen. Used the title of the GW Hero Quest box too! Lol
I even made a pretty buck by selling copies of my map to fellow gamers on A3 format for Fl 2,50 a piece... :D
Great to see someone is using this gem as inspiration for a miniatures project.
Will you be gaming this as well, or is it just(?) to collect minis of your favourite PC game?
