There are two or three I really like from this line....but the price of almost 30 dollars each makes them a bit costly....

I like them a lot I ordered 5 last night.

Don\'t forget they are 40mm not 28mm. By the time the range is complete there should be some very nice fugures amongst them from what I have seen on here and on John Blanche\'s site.

If you like I will let you know what they are like when they arrive (hopefully tomorrow or Friday).

His web site has been up for around six months now I think so not that new or old really.

If you go into browse gallery and look up submitter \"The Knaves\" this is what John Blanche is submitting on there are two entries that are not on his site yet also there are a few other people here that have had the chance to paint them and submit.

I had heard the quality is fantastic, and each mini comes with a very nice collectors tin....

Let us know War Griffon!

Burn it with a lighter and liberally sprinkle into a Rizla then...

Oh that kind of resin!

OK, well wash it thoroughly with water and washing up liquid and give it a gentle scrub with a cloth. Carefully fill any air bubbles with a mix of green stuff and milliput then file off the excess. Be sure to treat it gently at all times. Prime well and try to touch it as little as possible whilst painting it. Be sure to varnish when done.

Gorgeous minis there. Now, moment of sanity, how do I justify buying them, if I doubt I\'ll ever get round to painting them? There may be lots of conversion potential, but I see none that involve that addition of any GS. :D

I have those that are released so far. Very nice quality and excellent sculpts. The one I\'m looking forward to most right now is the Mona one. Excellent concept and pose.. Seems like Brian Nelson did a nice job copying Mona Lisa for the face.. don\'t you think?? :)

Well.. they are tucked away in their little boxes unfortunately... :) but as soon as I paint one I\'ll of course submit pics.

EDIT: Oh I only have those released... if it was that you ment. I thought you ment casting quality... or so.

Yep Mona is a nice one but there are also a few others I am looking forward to getting when they are released :D

I am not keen on Cataphractii and something about the painted version of Cratchyng doesn\'t look right but I do like Gallow Glass, Mary Bones and Pythone.

Out of those still to come I think Plegia, Janarius, Prebyter and Saucefleem could be interesting.

Different strokes for different folks.

The more I see of them the more I hold to my original impression. Fugly, and not for me.
