  1. It was 15 Uk pounds, making it pretty darn expensive across your side of the pond! Pretty expensive here too - thats probably the not cheap box it comes in though! only 6 have been released so far I believe
  2. We've seen the hype but I've not seen anyone review what you get........ John Blanche is the "grandaddy" of GameWorkshop imagery. From his mind comes crazy ideas that others interpret to something more digestible and and more then sculpt to the gaming minatures we see in the stores. I believe a few years ago he suffered a stroke, but that hasn't stopped him designing.......... http://www.femmemilitant.com/ There seems to have been some indulgence of his ideas in this project - his crazy kinky "Femme Militant" characters have been made 3D by some of the top sculptors in the miniature world, and have been given limited release in 40mm scale cast in resin. This one, "Varangii" was sculpted by Kev White, owner and sculptor of Hasslefree Minatures. What surprised me when they arrived was the rather nifty box they came in: a fancy metal hinged box with a wierd stilletto embossed on the top. Inside is a rather clean and glistening grey resin mini, in two parts and a typical GW plastic base. I'll let the final photo do the talking for the minature; it's not to everyone's taste, but an interesting mini never the less Rob
  3. A New Release in the 54mm Andrea Warlord Saga Range: Aenarier "Arrow of Light" This one is the November Release. Painted by Julio Cabos and sculpted by Joaquin Palacios. Joaquin's sculpt is visable here http://www.coolminiornot.com/137687
  4. Connect 4? like Ritual, I've never played any of the games - it's not what attracts me
  5. The three initial releases are: A very long thread in Spanish, complete with concept sketches and SBS's by Joaquin sre here; http://spanish-team.com/foro/viewtopic.php?t=2447&start=0 interesting to see hi sculpting technique, and that they are not "greens" but Miliput and Greenstuff mixes...................
  6. Sorry! Forgot to post that bit of info..........guilty! you're as bad as me, Cindy!! Dredging the forums............
  7. I seen the pictures of the rest of the range...... if the 54mm versions are too expensive, these will probably be a tempting option
  8. Cheers Mr FF! the main piece I'm sculpting is for UK Golden Demon........so that'll stay under wraps for a couple of weeks..... and everything else is not quite finished :laugh: here's an old pic of something that is slowly progressing further;
  9. Direct from GBA themselves.......thanks to some investigating from Top Bloke Greenstuff!!!!! Here's the link he gave me; http://www.grosbillsassocies.fr/parabellum_jeu_figurines/royaume_celeste.php it's quite expensive, but most of the metal is in the buddha head and wings.....and she is quite tiny. Despite language problems and a delay (probably my fault but compensated by GBA) GBA were great to deal with, and the package took 5 days to reach me. It was a must have mini.......in fact I bought 2!!!!! Cos i knew I'd never be happy with my first paintjob;
  10. Hi Guys.... I'm sure I will, but just got my hands on some GrosBill mini's (that lovely Archangel kimono wearling Cyril Abati sculpt, for example)......Its one worthy of a review on here
  11. Hi folks!! Been popping along here for a while, and finally decided I should make myself known! The name is Rob, typical 30something (just a little bit left (of being 30something, not politically (although I might be) oh shut up...OK)) with an 8 year old son and an unhealthy obsession with the "miniature" world, be it fantasy/sci-fi/historical and a variety of scales. I paint and sculpt. But I rarely finish anything......but AM getting better. Oh, I've been "not finishing" anything for about 27 years now....... Lots of familiar names on here....."hi" to all of you I know, and to those I'm yet to get to know..... And I still don't own any Wyrd minis.................I'll get my coat....... cheers Rob
