 The dwarf on the far right is one that I picked up.  The thing I love about that range is that they wear traditional WOTR era human-styled plate armor.

Yeah, they look better in person.  Brian did a great job on them.

Hi guys, a new site for Midlam Miniatures will come along in mid-January, and all the figures and games (and even decent pics!) will be on there.  At the moment, www.omnivistascope.com has a basic shop, but I can respond to any enquiries via e-mail.

My old job came to an end on Christmas Eve, so I'm going to be giving the miniatures and games a go full time (at least for a few months until I have to get back to work).

All the best

Thanks for posting that Paul.  I may just have to round out those Dwarves in full plate.  I love that they are anatomically proportioned correctly.  You look at them and say, "I believe those Dwarves can walk." When other companies can make Dwarves that waddle.... lol

Ok, two more quick pics before finished pictures hopefully tomorrow. 

Also managed to finish a Reaper Elf I owed Drew for trading me his Mantis warrior.





All highlights and inks have been applied.  Just dipped them and will base and finish them tomorrow. Hopefully.  :D

Well I guess I should be holding up the "Drew" end of the Excellent Fantasy Adventure.

Here are my two sets of Wargames Factory Viking Huscarls.  They will be for the standard and cursed versions of my Skarsgard raiders.

Another angle.

Side by side of archer.

And finally Gustav two swords who will be my commander.

Right now I am just working on the basecoat for each version.  My plan for the cursed versions is to dirty them up and paint them with eldritch markings.  I plan to dip these models once they are complete.

There's room for everyone's ideal dwarf, but that's pretty much my sentiments too :)

Well, here are some finished figures for my True-Bolds Fighting Company for our Epic Heroes project.

I also finished an Elf Ranger/Fighter that I finally painted up for Drew.

I will do some reshoots of a few that came out blurry and were deleted. Plus I'll add their stats for Brink of Battle so you all can get a feel for where we're heading with the fantasy supplement.





























Now on to Starhawk (nice cheesy 70's era Fantasy name, eh? :) )







Here are links to my blogs for bigger pictures:

Hey hey, I missed your latest post! All your knights look ace but I really like that knight with the plumes on his helmet best. I really like the bronze on the Partha knight, did you trim his base? Also, can you take another (bigger) pic of the massed knights? All you need now is a really big AAR with all these cool finished minis; post one up quick!


Cheers,
 Damien

I did trim his base to resonably fit on my wooden 25mm rounds.  The dude with the plumes and the Honor blade is a Werner Klocke sculpt from Mega Minis.  Drew turned me on to them last year and I finally bought more Partha and early Citadel figures to match his scale. 

I will get more photos up by the weekend.  We have another dry run on playtesting our forces, and then will be running a 4 week campaign with full photos, AAR's, and force rosters.

The Lads painted up SUPER. Starhawk (sounds like an old Buick) & the Ogre are my favorites in the Group...nice job on the Elf's hair. VERY WELL DONE!

Are you using Lara's Wood Craft pieces for your bases? They were my bases of choice for quite some time.
