Great looking 28mm witches!

These were painted by a blogger friend of mine, Michael Awdry! What great looking 28mm witches. I guess I will have to search eBay for them now! His blog is fantastic - make sure to check it out!

I was a 6th grade miniatures maniac!

I haven't posted in a while. I have been focusing on a lot of other projects, but I'm going to refocus my energy and keep blogging! I will mainly be writing about  my AD&D 1st edition kids / neighbors campaign, and pictures of the fantasy miniatures that I've been painting.

Here is an article I wrote for Cigar Box Battle - I hope you will enjoy it!

Warmaster Elves - another unit to add to my army

Warmaster Elven Bolt Thrower

 

These are hot off the painting table! I didn't want to

tackle any large units over the Holidays, so I focused

on smaller pieces like these bolt throwers and an

elven general (a future post!). These will make a

great addition to my elven army.

These guys are ready to put down some supporting fire!

The detail on these 10mm figures is very good and they were a joy to paint!

Warmaster High Elves

I recently was inspired to paint some more units for my Games Workshop

10mm Warmaster High Elf army. My friend Chris has painted a few other armies

and it's time for a new opponent! Here are some pics:

 

 

 

Two units of chariots and a hero mounted on a dragon.
I painted the chariots with just a driver and bowman as this seems
to me the way an elven chariot would fight.

The elven host marches to war! This is what I
have painted so far. I have a bunch of spear
units left to paint and a few other odds and ends.

Another angle of the army. I want to get them to
at least 1000 points soon.

Wizards

These are two wizards I painted a while ago. They are 28mm figures from Mark Copplestone.

I really like the detail and they painted up nicely. Here's a few pics:

Dixon 25mm Fantasy Figure

Dixon 25mm Fantasy

This is an old Dixon Fantasy figure that I painted last week. I like 

the "old school" fanasty look it has....,because it is an "old school"

figure! I don't remember the item code, but it is a very interesting mounted

"magic-using" type character. His lack of armor and fancy equipment, natural look, and skulls

put him into the shamanistic realm I think. He does have a huge

two handed sword on his back. I'm going to use him as an

evil or chaotic neutral type bad guy with a combination of druidic &

shamanistic abilities. Looks like a human or 1/2 elf. What do you think?

25mm Dixon Shaman - I like the robes and natural leather equipment.

He carries a two-handed sword too!

Another view of the Shaman.

Glorfindel - The Lord of the Rings

Glorfindel

I painted this figure recently. Glorfindel is an elven lord and is one of my favorite 

"minor" characters. I posted more photos of him on my historical blog and 

they can be found at: http://cigarboxheroes.blogspot.com/2012/08/glorfindel-28mm-lotr.html
