Just thought I'd share this with everybody. Blows my mind.

Also, is this allowed?

Man I hope so, cause some of those are seriously awesome. Woah! There's like a slug wizard there or something! I'm making myself an avatar of that RIGHT NOW.

Being a Warhammer 40k player and having almost 3 years playing D&D ive never seen so detailed miniatures.

Im not being exaggerated. Part of the problem is, maybe, that in my country there no a giant varienty of miniatures for this games and are somehow "dark" and difficult to find.

In this 3 years ive been playing D&D ive searched for an 2 scimitar/sword wielding drow, and that on the website made my day.

Appart from that one, the Gandalf look like one although is unpainted, looks amazing, and gotta love the mouse witch and rogue rat.



and well....the little red swash hood....boobies.... :smallbiggrin:

Glad you guys are as stoked on these as I am. After doing some reading around their site it looks like a lot of the miniatures are based off of Larry Elmores art (early dragonlance, FR, and everquest 1).

There is also a line of George R.R. Martin miniatures : )

Those look fantastic. Are they bigger than D&D scale ones? I'd think they are, to have that kind of detail.

My only critique is that the heads on the animal people are a bit large, but that's probably some sort of style choice. Otherwise these are rad as all get out.

And there's a slug wizard.

they have great level of detail one the body and clothes, but thats not the case of the faces.
They re still great, but that problem with factions always appear on a very little sculpture, i think its not easy and it repeats always.

Im talking about slightly bigger eyes, mouths and noses.

Thats why I think the scale is (if not the same) very similar.

Awesome, thanks for sharing.

Also, is this allowed?I'm not quit sure what you're asking. As long as a mini is in the 25mm - 30mm scale range, I don't see why it wouldn't be allowed. (Unless your DM is an ass and says, "DnD brand minis only." Hell, I use Warmachine minis, Warhammer minis, and Reaper DHLs. WM's are 30mm scale, WH and some of the DHLs are 28mm, and the rest are 25mm.

Even if it's not, I'm glad you posted :-)

I'm not quit sure what you're asking.

I interpreted it as "Am I allowed to post this?" as it could potentially be seen as an advert/plug for another site, and some forums have issues with such things.

Those are pretty awesome looking. I'll have to keep that in mind next time I look for more figures. Thanks for pointing that out. :smallbiggrin:
