Those dragon models are fantastic. I particularly like the last one the best. They would be great for a game of Dungeons and Dragons!

Hey, the stone fire and water elementals was in my store not long ago.

Migh even still be there.... but i doubt it.

by TheCrimsonGlass Tue Aug 09, 2011 9:52 am

I really like elementals in any universe that they're in. This one is no exception! I think my favorite in this case is the stone. He kind of reminds me of a Djinn as well.

The Balgorgon would make a decent Daemon prince. Now, where did I put that NFsword?! scratch

I totally understant why you loke the travelling players guys.

They are awesome, and i would love to have them myself.
They all are unique and are probably very fun to paint.

And it would be sweet to have as npc's or characters in roleplaing games where miniatures help define combat.

by Aubec le noir Wed Aug 10, 2011 7:48 am

yes, i totally agree with you, brother Klomster.
to be true i've never saw them until i dig ... i think they are utterly rare alas !! Crying or Very sad

Some of those models didn't have good enough pose for one to see what they are.

While some are nice and characterful, some look kinda bad.

But wither way, some nice finds.

by Aubec le noir Fri Aug 12, 2011 6:16 am

yes it varies a lot ... i think it's because it was a time for uniqueness : every model was unique and made with hands not with a computer logicial ... so variation of quality was the rule. another note : i don't know if those villagers were created by the same sculptor ... they could be plenty : another source of variation indeed ! Wink

but all in all i found those models very caracterful and good witness of a time passed.
tomorrow another part of townfolks and villagers.

I see very rare indeed brother. Just as lost days of old template constucts, these hand made diamonds in the rough are either A class or cubic zarconia. jocolor

by Aubec le noir Mon Aug 15, 2011 3:40 am

yes it's the problem with hand made models ... some are gorgeous, some are awful, but it's part of the charm i guess
