Coming soon from Dark Maenad Games
« on: 20 May 2016, 01:52:27 AM »
Hi,

I am kicking off a small venture in the hopes not of making my fortune, but of making some cool miniatures. These will be in resin and come in four interchangeable pieces. Head and torso, arms, and waist and legs. The sculptor is Olivier Bouchet. These sculpts are not quite finished. I hope you like them.

Nice. Inspired by Aly Fell's artwork?

Aly Fell, I don't think so, but I'll have to google Aly now. I really couldn't find anything that fit the bill so I cobbled together a little bit of everything to give Olivier the idea what I was looking for. There is everything from Manga to high fashion in there. The weapons were all real historical examples and the shield was from a renaissance bronze.

Update, I just googled Aly Fell and I had seen a couple of those, but I didn't know they were part of a comic series.  I preordered the graphic novel it looks pretty cool. Thanks Fram.

I like no. 2. I've got ideas that it should drop into fairly easily.

Any timeframe of when they're available?

They should be finished next week. I am waiting to hear back from Grey Matter and I will have a better idea.

32 mm sounds good :)
Like the old Confrontation-minis, right?

Thank you, I'm working on a Frostgrave Renaissance themed Warband as well. I hope to eventually release a couple of Grand Ladies of the court to serve as wizards.
