They are nice single part metal miniatures that fit in well with the chunky GW style of old. There are the command figures (hornblower/bugler, banner-bearer, and leader - the latter does not come with a shield but his hand is raised in a 2 finger salute, so I added a shield myself), and a few regular troops with big hammers. The set I received also included the dwarf spear maiden, alluringly raising her skirt a bit to show a little leg. I didn't get very creative with the color scheme, mostly going with a similar scheme to the ones I have seen online, but maybe simpler.
They look great. I have some of these dwarfen knights ( with different crests somewhere in the lead pile.) and must look them out.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteYeah, they have other dwarf knights, foot and mounted, and plenty of other great figures.
Once again a lovely set of models nicely painted Fitz :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteI feel like I have been getting into a nice "groove" painting dwarves. First I do what little skin is usually showing (noses mostly ha ha), then beards and hair. Then the clothing, armor and everything else.
Great looking dwarf knights,n nic metal finishes!

I like that you've painted them as polar bears (or albino bears?)! I think the blue works very well with them!
ReplyDeleteRose is lovely!
Thanks, Tim! I would say polar bears with the black noses. I just did a basic paint job based on the official minis on their website (white bears, with blue). :)
DeleteNice to have some female dwarf minis once in a while, too.
Old Glory makes some Dwarf Shieldmaidens as well:

I actually have some of the Old Glory ones. I think I have seen the Lead adventure ones at some point, but lost track of them. Maybe a late Christmas present... ha ha
