Dwarves

More than thirty years ago I started casting miniatures using Prince August moulds. Most of the time they didn't look very good, stuff made by ten year olds usually doesn't, but a couple of years ago I got nostalgic and revisited those moulds, and with the help of tips from the internet, and a grown-up brain, I managed to get much better results. Especially the dwarf moulds have always been a favourite of mine, and when I realised that they fit the size and style of the Lord of the Rings dwarves from Games Workshop I started a small force. That ran out of steam after a while, but now with Warlords of Erewhon out I've revisited the dwarves once again.


Two PA dwarves, with a GW dwarf in the middle:

 Plastic rangers with big axes:

 Plastic archers:

These dwarves with throwing axes I'll use as spearmen, the rules seems to fit that quite well:

Get a bowl of rice

Here are some more Chinese for my Bolt Action army, these too are from Copplestone Castings. In particular I'm very happy with how the flags turned out. They are freehanded on wine-bottle foil.

 This guy just sitting eating rice instead of serving the big-ass mortar might be one of the coolest miniatures ever.

These are originally labelled as Chinese bandits, I'll use them for the free inexperienced squad the Chinese get, as well as hopefully use them for some skirmish gaming.
