Re: 3D Print hobby impact

Lazy as I am I am going to copy some of my thoughts that I´ve stated in the comments. It is an interesting development, for sure. But I think it will be most usefull to suplement existing Miniatures and make some conversion pieces (do a different Weapon, another Shield, an interesting Bit or somethi...

Re: Book suggestions for background reading

If you are interested in the Byzantii you absolutly have to read the Vespasian Series (and if you liked Spartacus I am sure that you will like those books too).

Re: JerzyK's minis

Impressive! The eye of the beheaded Giant is awesome, well done! You´ve captured the shocked expression that such a creature must have been showing when such a tiny mortal with a big knife relieved it of its head. Timmoth is another Masterwork, the Vibrant Colors, the Fur on the Mantle, the NMM - in...

[Lore] - Heraldic Animals

Hi Everyone (especially Hi Rob ;D - since I am hoping for an official Answer). I have wondered what Animals and Beasts would be included into the Heraldry of the different Kindred, in a World where so many Monsters and Animals (both Quadrupeds and Bipeds) are fighting alongside the Enemy. Some are e...

Re: Book suggestions for background reading

Another Book I would suggest is "Vespasian, Masters of Rome" by Robert Fabbri. Set into the Background of the Roman Invasion in Britannia the first part of the Book involves Druids and a Wickerman, a contraption constructed to imprison the Romans and Burn them alive (When I´ve first seen t...

Tell me about your Collection

Hi there - inspired by Phil listing his Infernii Collection in the Kickstarter Comments I thought it would be a good Idea to hear about your personal Mierce Treasure Hoard, what do you have (on Hand or on Order)? In my Case: Byzantii Equitus Durio, Centurion Velchior, Magus Infernum Unmasked Velchio...

As far as I can see every Kindred was mentioned at least once. @Alex: Wow, that was a surprise - you like the Errain? I didn´t see that coming ;D. I´ve made that Ysians, I think to lis...

Now here is how I imagined this Thread to work: What is your Primary Kindred? - Byzantii Why do they hold a special place in your heart? - I am a fan of all things Roman, and the Legionarius Miniatures were the best Roman looking Miniatures I have ever seen. That they have access to Scorpions, Dinos...

Out of curiosity - I would like to know what Kindreds you are calling your own, and what has convinced you that this particular Kindred was the right choice for you. I would like to know what´s: - Your Primary Kindred - Your Secondary Kindreds - Your Tertiary Kindreds to explain this: The Primary Ki...

Well done JerzyK! Brugg looks very cool - awesome paintjob! Well, I wish I was able to show such progress, but I wasn´t able to do very much. My plan was to use the Basius System to make some Bases, but I noticed that two years old Green Stuff doesn´t produce the best results, so I´ve ordered new Gr...

The banner is great, especially for the first atempt, I just mentioned the shields because the small size and consistent quality caught my eye a...

Very nice work Dan! The Skin of the Brutes and the Giant and the Eye especially. One thing I would suggest on Oghurüc: Maybe you should darken the color of his horns a bit, at the moment they are blending a bit too much with the skintone (if that was what you´ve intended I haven´t said anything :D) ...

Great Minis, well done! The Eyes of the Krokdor look very lifelike, impressive! The stone effect on their weapons, their skin and the bases (well, basicly everything ;D) look ace. But one thing has caught my eye more than anything other - the armour of the Gorgonar looks stunning, can you please sha...

Before I had seen your Drunes I would have thought that NMM wouldn´t fit well with the more realistic and gritty Darklands Miniatures, but you´ve proven that it does if it...
