Hello Readers,

Here’s another post in my miniature series. Unfortunately I only have one more photo that is clear enough to put up and I will do that in a final post in this series. I have started all my previous miniature posts with a dragon, so I thought I would keep that trend going in this post.

This first photo is of a baby Green Dragon, I love how the reptilian features stand out on this one. The base was made with an old lid of a jar covered with Plaster-of-Paris. The mushrooms and chili like plant were made by carefully heating/melting the plastic frame the skeletons in the last post came in (they were plastic moulded figures that come in pieces so you can mix and match to make personalised figures). The tree was from a model railway set.

This one is a Hill Giant. You can’t really tell from the picture, but he is missing a finger on his left hand – hence the blood splatter. This one reminds me of a cross between a Muppet and Ben Grimm. Still, I wouldn’t like to bump into him in a dark valley.

This next one is another Minotaur. I really like the way this one turned out, but the quality of the picture doesn’t do it justice here… Sorry!

If you are looking at getting some miniatures yourself, why not have a browse online.

Anyway, once again I hope you’ve enjoyed the pictures. If they help stimulate your imagination at all, then it has been worth posting them.

I have one more photo for my next post, until then.

Happy Reading!

Hello Readers,

Here is my third post on fantasy miniatures. Again, I apologize for the poor quality of the pictures, but these are digital photos, of paper photos, of the minatures I painted many years ago.

This first one is a Red Dragon (Pretty obvious really). I like to think of this one as a nephew of Smaug. A fraction of the size, but just as mean.

This one is a Cave Giant. You probably can’t appreciate the size of him because there is no reference to gauge it against, but it is probably about 3 times the size of a human figure.

And here we have a Minotaur, fearsome guardian of the labyrinth. The strange thing about this one is he has one clawed hand and one human hand. Still a scary Mo-Fo if you ask me and I’m guessing his breath isn’t too good, but I’m sure never getting close enough to one to find out!

I like to browse through the figures in store to choose the ones I like, but you can find a great selection of miniatures and the gear you need to paint them online.

I reckon I’ve got enough photos left for one or two more posts, we’ll see. Either way, I hope you’ve enjoyed them so far and that they have kicked your imagination into gear.

Happy Reading!
