Well, I am actually pleasantly surprised that this one hit over 5, since it was such an old mini. Some of the older CMON members probably remember these minis, and more importantly the original LOTR movie on which they were based. Enjoy! http://www.coolminiornot.com/138923

Does anyone know who the manufacturer of these minis is? Unlike some others I have \"discovered\" in ebay purchases, these at least have identifying marks on the bases, but I am not familiar with the \"S\" logo. Thanks!

Anyone else get a bit giddy this season on CSI (Las Vegas) with the mini diorama murder episode? It looks like next week\'s episode is another one, so we have a mini diorama serial killer!

http://www.coolminiornot.com/137987 Well, I confess I am a bit disappointed that this one didn\'t break 6, but oh well. If anyone can provide some constructive comments, I would appreciate it. I tried to go for earthy tones similar to the garb of the Podlings in the film. I also wanted to...

I waited until these hit around 60 votes before asking, but would appreciate any comments on my two latest submissions. Bevo the Minotaur: http://www.coolminiornot.com/137012 Gnome Illusionist: http://www.coolminiornot.com/137011 The gnome is an old TSR mini, but I am not sure who...

I was thinking about buying some planes miniatures as a gift for an aviation fanatic - are there miniature lines for warplanes, especially WWI or WWII?

http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/americas/09/13/montreal.shooting/index.html I was hoping that Canada would remain relatively immune from this sort of insanity. Oh well, sign of the times.

I have no idea if these go together, but they came in a set of minis I picked up on Ebay. The woman is very detailed and beautifully sculpted. She looks about 28 mm scale, or maybe slightly larger. No identifying marks. The \"terrain\" is nicely done and looks like weathered stone. It seems...

I know this isn\'t the most exciting mini, but it is the first time I have tried to paint undead flesh, so I picked a \"rough\" mini to practice on. I tried to make his vest and pants look \"dirty\" as if from the grave. Thanks for any tips.

I got a set of Rifts minis in the current Mini exchange and was wondering if there are any Rifts gamers who can help me with color schemes for a Simvan and ostrasaur mount and a Black Faerie. I couldn\'t find any good color images on Google.

I could not believe the words coming out of this lady\'s mouth. http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/08/28/senate.harris.ap/index.html

Another TSR Mage - Only 1 more to go, and I will have finished the box! I think she has a wicked stepsister vibe for some reason. I know I need to clean up the skin around her neck pendant - too dark. Also, I would like suggestions about how to fix the darker shading on her robe - I basically...

Greetings all! Please take a look at my most recent submissions. http://www.coolminiornot.com/130163 http://www.coolminiornot.com/130161 The mage is another TSR mini from a boxed set - two more and I will have it finished! I\'m not sure who made the little goblin. Any feedback is appreciated!

OK, another old school mini. Several things I would like input about. First, I am correcting the \"levels\" with GIMP and would like an opinion about whether I am doing it properly. Second, I want to do a \"snow base\", but I don\'t know if there is a simple household surrogate for \"snow\"...

Another TSR mage - I think one of the better sculpts. Any suggestions before I finish him?

After encountering some of the characters from the Forgotten Realms novels in Bioware games, and also seeing miniatures of Drizzt, Elminster and other characters on CMON, I am tempted to read some of the source novels. Are they worth reading, and if so, is there a particular order in which they...

Suggestions before I finish this little goblinoid guy up? Also, if anyone knows who made him and what he is supposed to be, I would like to identify him. He is small - the penny is for scale, but you can also get a sense from the wine cork.

I would like to post my minis with an artificial gradient background that many others seem to use. However, I don\'t have Photoshop. Is there a downloadable software program that can do a similar extraction that doesn\'t cost a fortune?

I am interested in miniatures that have been produced from popular films, shows, novels, etc. On CMON, Stuff of Legends and Ebay, I have seen the following: LOTR (multiple companies) Indiana Jones Star Wars Star Trek Diablo II (PC game) Battletech/Mechwarrior Aliens Forgotten Realms Elric...

I read with interest the article about raiding the spice cabinet for basing materials. I was throwing out some coffee grounds the other day and it struck me that they look a lot like dark forest soil. Has anyone ever tried using them for basing, and more importantly is there anything bad about...
