Miniatures We Wish Were

I think Fimm's Oakbound had a Jareth-esque mini?

Labyrinth minis would be awesome, I'd love a Headwort err Hoggle...and a Ludo...and a Sir Diddymus on Ambrosius :razz:

Keeping with the movie theme, I would like a James Earl Jones/Thulsa Doom mini.

2. Dedicated command sections for their marauder minis
3. Why...because marauder gave us specific elite dwarf figures...but failed to give us any command sections to go with them...

Ha! It was the same with the high elf range from that era, I had to make do with converting Phoenix Guard and White Lions command groups, but I didn't bother with the Swordmasters, they were too ugly to collect even by the 90's standard ;)
 
I mean.... while we're on the subject of Marauder...

Dark Elves that rank up easily without having to first sacrifice a goat to beelzebub.

That's half the fun of a Dark Elf army, the weeks of careful preparationto work out the exact order of your troops so they stand next to each other without stabbing each other! ;)

Excellent idea, I like the idea of a Sir Diddymus on Ambrosius. One of the reasons I like the old Citadel Gnolls/Great Goblins is becuase they are similar to Brain Frouds art, whci was used later as the basis for the Labyrinth film look.

I could'nt find the Jareth-esque miniature from Fimm's Oakbound :(

Now Thulsa Doom is an excellent idea. Most people think of Darth Vader when they think of James Earl Jones, but I always think of him as Thulsa Doom (or the guy in Red October ;) ) .

Too be fair, they did a model that is clearly a longbeard standard bearer, whether it's labeled as so or not.

This true...and they also released a number "generic" standards musicians and heroes...but in most cases they don't match your unit exactly in style but are close enough...there just aren't enough of them.

They did such an excellent job making cohesive units that were often released in a blister box (dwarf pikes etc.) they could have easily done the same with the hammerers and iron breakers etc....and I for one wish they had...:)

Tre Manor
Dark Future Pedestrians in 20mm
Because he is second only to Tom Meier in his ability to sculpt amazing detail in tiny figures.
Sadly enough, I have asked him many, many times, and he does not seem interested. :cry:

I wonder if Bob Olley would sculpt me a decent sized Squat hovercar? :grin:

He's already done that and sold the rights on to someone else:

- Jes Goodwin

- MOAR of every of his designs but if I had to name some, I'd think of eldar assassins, titan crew and all

That's two of us wanting more Jes Goodwin Eldar then JB? ;) I nearly went for the Eldar starship crew in my original post!

Indeed, I added the flower guy again just to add my weight on this one. Pretty much any Sketch Goodwin made and which wasn't turned into a model, I want to see it done (by him) the ice IG

Completely agree.

I would personally love to see a dwarf on boar (like the JB painting) and a female dwarf that didn't look ridicules by Jes. :)
 
oh and I just don't know how I manage dto forget those but amongst the ones I'd want models of most are all the JB illustrations from the sorcery books :

Sculptor? Well Goodwin and Blanche make a Good Combo but some of the illos would fit Ally Morrison just fine :

In fact we need a game with models to play in the titan worlds with the design based on those Blanche illustrations. Every single one of them is just the best of his BnW artwork and it's just pure gothic punk fantasy. Why couldn't we get models for tis?
