Miniature recommendations for Arkham Horror board game?
« on: 07 January 2013, 04:24:41 PM »
Hi folks:

I'm wondering if anyone from this thread could make some recommendations for 28mm miniatures for the investigators from the Arkham Horror board game.  I know they make prepainted plastic miniatures for the game, but I'm old school and would prefer painting up my own from some better quality metal/resin figures.

Here's a link to the list of prepainted figures that I'm looking to recreate:  http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_minisite_sec.asp?eidm=6&esem=2&esum=156



Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

Keith

For example, here's one investigator that I've found a nice alternative for:

Darrell Simmons:

Plastic PrePainted Fig.


Alternative - Lacy O'Malley, Muckraker from Reaper Miniatures

Some fella painted up a large assortment of Pulp miniatures for his Arkham Horror game, they are not 1:1 fits but pretty nice nevertheless.

Artizan are also worth a look as are Pulp Miniatures. :D

Alternative - Foundry Gentlemen (Victoriana Miniatures : Victoriana Single Pack); Add a cane to one of these gentleman and I should get a good match
