Dr. Moebius is doing it HotT

[Dr. Moebius]

Hello together,

I always planned to do a 28mm Hordes of the Things Army. Now it is the time to do exactly that. As always I have lots of ideas, miniatures and plans for each project.
To give 28mm HotT a start I go for the dwarfs. I have quiete a lot of the old 80´s Citadel dwarfs from the Perry twins and I really like these chaps as they are really full of character.

OK here we go:
2 bases of "Blades" and a "Hero" base; 2 bases of "Warbands" (my plan is to use the dwarf adventurers, thiefs etc. as warbands)

And here are the pics of the two bases of warbands:

I have a few of those minis kicking around. Nowhere near as nicely painted as yours though. Such great minis.

[Brummie Thug]

They are all lovely I really wish I still had all mine that I sold way back. Superb all of them

[mikeygees]

Those are sweet. Very inspirational....

I have a few of these minis!
Wonderful painting, makes me very jealous!

[Ragnar]

Superb painting.

[Mason]

Lovely sculpts, great brushwork with excellent freehand on those shields.
What more could you want?

Simply gorgeous.

Great stuff- what base sizes have you gone with?

[FramFramson]

That mule is really really nice!

Lovely painting. I primed my Chaos & Empire HoTT armies yesterday in anticipation of autumnal painting, although as they're made up largely of Battlemasters mini's I doubt they'll look as nice as these.

Dr. M, wonderful paint jobs on IMHO the best dwarf miniatures ever. Especially love the 2nd warband base, the dwarf with the map is superb!

[DeafNala]

You've got some GREAT Little Characters there, Doc. Your brushwork has brought them to life WONDERFULLY & the bases make them into gaming vignettes. VERY WELL DONE!

They really are great! I love the heraldry on the shields and banner! Awesome!

Hi Dave,

I use 60mm x 40mm for nearly all infantry troop types and 60mm x 60mm for cavalry, hordes, artillery etc. Using smaller depth than 40mm does not really look great for 28mm miniatures I think.

A very great blog on 28mm HotT has a guy called Tim from Canada, from which I got lot of inspiration for myself, espacially for basing my minis.

I'm a big fan of your work too. Love your old school minis.

Cheers
