Minis you would want for your own personal collection

[wiccanpony]

I’m sitting here thinking (ouch! that stings) if I had endless bags of guilder what kinds of minis I would hire the best sculptors to make just for me.

I would like for start a set of figures depicting the Major Arcana Tarot

Characters from the Meredith Gentry story line

Characters from native american tales, like thunderbird and trickster coyote

 

[Dragonsreach]

DuuuH No brainer here.

Really Kick ass Dragon.

I have a concept of what I would like to see which I\'m trying to draw up.
However Drawing-Fu failure.

Still bugging Steve Buddle about a Dragon as well. Poor Soul must be heartily sick of me.lol

 

[Roger Bunting]

Why, I would commision a set of Freak Bar regulars.

Also, maybe characters from Spirited Away.

Oh, and from Monkey (ya know, as in Monkey Magic, but the 16th century book the stories are from).

No, not sick of it. I have a concept of what I\'d like to but my sculpt-fu has been failing me...

Plus getting the size right is difficult as I want it in metal rather than resin and at something approaching a reasonable price.

Roger do you mean \"Journey to the West\"?
As that\'s far older than 16th century.

CLASSIC Fantasy Dragon for me. (Lets face it a Dragon is alway s going to be comtemporary).
Never saw the appeal for Cyborg Dragons though.

Oh, and I\'d like a range of low detail, underscaled (read actual 28mm) fantasy figs. I could do it myself but they really wouldn\'t sell so I have to spend my sculpting time on more commercial pursuits.

like Roger, Studio Ghibli miniatures.

Totoro, Spirited Away, Princess Monoke, Porco Rosso, Laputa.

i just like the style of artwork, and would love to see then in 3D.

the dust bunnies from Totoro first.

Then maybe some StarGate minis, followed by thousands of Kender minis.

Easy one for me . I spent 2 years almost in World of warcraft (yes I was that sad) where I was able to make a big reputation for my self and was renown on my server (and on others) for being the best of my class in PVE (I speak of no ego :yes.
I quit the game after they made that god damn crappy exp. So I\'d love to be remembered when I was at the hight of my fame and skill, so for that I\'d love to see a model of my Warrior in his full Tier 3 (Dreadnought battle gear) along with his sword and shield. Obviously though he\'d have to be posed like he\'s ready to take some serious pounding, or in a pose where he knows he\'s gonna die but gets on with the job at hand. As for sculpters I\'m not to sure who Id want, there\'s a lot of them out there who would suit me.
Picuture for those who didn\'t play the game or know what it looks like (It was imo the best looking one in the game).

There are some \"Stargate\" minis around I\'ll have to look up a few manufacturers for you, which\'ll be tomorrow before I can post up the details.

 

[Roger Bunting]

DR, Yeah, it\'s Wu Ch\'eng-en\'s version of Journey to the West which he wrote in the 16th century, but it\'s based on much older folklore.

As for the star gate minis:

not very many...no Asgard, replicators, Ori...oh and no SGC members.....

i would probably want some more specific sculpts than what may be currently available but thanks for these linked anyway.

 

[generulpoleaxe]

i\'m slowly working on getting the miniatures i would like

hurry up Allan, your cue is too long lol
and edgar, one day i will get a couple of pieces done by you that fit in with what you like to sculpt.

 

[wiccanpony]

I would also like character bunnies from Watership Downs

 

[Amazon warrior]

I\'d like some minis based on China Mieville\'s books. Especially Perdido Street Station and The Scar. Mad-ass steam-punk and whacky races ahoy!

I like the idea of trickster coyote, maybe to go with the Africa trickster god (name escapes me), Loki, Ah what the heck lets get all the \"evil\" gods in on this one.

Major Arcana. Boy, I\'d think that some of those would be diffluct to get just right, with all the things \"floating\" in the air around the centeral figure....

@mrrockandroll Only two years? Pah lightweight Try 7+ on EverCrack, then come and talk to me and after all that the highest that any of my charaters got was 40 Well I\'m working on some of those characters as we speak. Thank goodness for 72mm Sophies.

Good Gods. I just relised that I haven\'t had a life in the last 10 years......

@shadzar - Here\'s the link to the maker of the Stargate minis. I bought the SG1 team set, and they are nice sculpts.

I would like some good Star Trek minis - those FASA minis are terrible.

 

[Monkfish44]

hmmm, i didnt even have to think really, an army of mutant/zombie soldiers and then a bunch of zombie brettonians and a bunch of zombie aliens ahaha.
Oh and a load of post apocolyptic bounty hunter type people lol

OOOOOHHH!

Just make sure to never paint any Star Trek uniforms red or yellow depending on era. Older red shirts always died, and newer yellow shirts always died.

Blue uniforms were mostly safe. Must be something to do with doctors and the UN and all that Geneva Convention stuff....
