BTW: This is a range of fantasy figures that will be sold at the price of historical's. So it it will be possible to build large armies at a very affordable price.  ;)

While my experiences with Moorcock's fantasy writings is from a long time ago...too long for any clear remembrance, the minis are VERY COOL & BEAUTIFULLY crafted. GREAT WORK!

The vultures look great. I don't usually frequent the Fantasy forums but I'll have to keep an eye on this thread.
I'd actually call the Hawkmoon books more postapoc/dark future than high fantasy.
I agree - Granbretan armies in miniature are long over due!

Wow really psyched to see these and can't wait to get my hands on some. Nic very kindly sent me some samples of the previous sculpts and they were great but these are even better.
Just wondering though are there still plans to do the range in 10mm?

Greetings folks,

It's great to see all the enthusiasm for this project. It looks like there are plenty of people who would like to (finally) see the armies of the Runstaff saga come to life. Thanks for your positive input.

Here are a couple more sculpts - Captain and Standard Bearer.

These look fantastic! I've been wanting to game Hawkmoon since the late 1970's but never found figures I was really happy with! lol

Any plan of doing Countess Flana Mokoseevar?

And Hawkmoon, the 'good' characters and the Guardians of Kamarg, for that matter? They'd likely reach a wider audience / have a wider market, btw.

Now, an ornithopter....

Don't know about reaching a wider market. Good Guys/Bad Guys - can't have one w/o the other. Or is that what you mean?

The masked warriors are very specific -though of course nothing prevents you from using them in another 'universe'. I suspect that the 'good guys' would look more 'generic' and thus would be more easily used in a number of settings, from maybe Aquilonia or Valdemar to some Da Vinciesque 'clockworkpunk' background?
