@William Redford
The little buildings come in pieces, so you can build them as pictured, or kitbash with them:

@Benjamin Hayward Oooh. Looks like a Dollar Tree run is in order. Though the Dollar store is now more like teh $1.19 store....
@JTam Yeah... 35mm... But not exactly sure what they mean when they say 35mm... as it looks like board game minis (Conan, Zombicide, etc) that are 35mm are really more closely matching 32mm...&nbs...
I am actually debating dropping my Bones 6 pledge to back this... Or forget about the Fireforge Samurai... The only thing that makes me hesitant is its 35mm... Which, if it matches Zombicide (which...
The miniatures and game looks really good. Do they say what scale the minis are? I love Parente's work:
Hello there! This stuff isn't trash, but I didn't want to start a whole new topic on Dollar/thrift store finds. I picked these bad boys up at Dollar Tree here in the US (Tau for size referen...
The US Army has finally (supposedly) adopted a new rifle and squad automatic weapon. New Rifle and SAW The rifle seems to offer no real capability increases over the M4 other than the new round...
@JTam A blackpowder RPG, you mean like the ones in Disney’s Animated movie Mulan? Actually for gnomes I would be okay with a bunch of 15mm high static pose minis armed with gardening...
@Yronimos Whateley The Trigonists are actually just one of several training simulation enemies and while we are at it nations the US military has created (they even fought zombies once😉). @...
Its wednesday... decided to play with some GW greatsword bits on a conquistador body. Not a bad fit, though I dont really like the head... may replace it.
@Slow Painter Using a Skaven Warlock Bombardier to depict some Cawdor Redemptionnist model is quite a brilliant idea..
No, sorry... 😢 Unfortunately, I am a latecomer to the Iron Core Universe and only became aware of it after the Kickstarter.I hope Mark starts his project again... it would be nice if there were bo...
saw these on Etsy Etsy link
@Grumpy Gnome A sincere Well Done! Convincing conversions. @Caratacus I prefer the traditional Gnome: If they were going to have a twist..... Well I can't thi...
Pedicures are what sets us apart from creepy weird squibbly things that crawl out of drains. Thank you! There was a lot of back and forth before I hit it with the yellow. I'm terrible at getting r...
@Slow Painter Nice conversions! I never knew the reason for pedicures till now: The hazard stripe chain sword looks GREAT on the second model.
I love kitbashing. I am very, very, very limited in my sculpting skills, so the more bits I have, the better. I like putting things together and ending up with something completely diffe...
It should come as no surprise that I have spent a lot of time thinking about Gnomes. I am inspired by a lot of different Gnomish influences, including World of Warcraft. So steampunk tinkering is s...
This is a request to all you Iron Core Fans and I trully belive their are a lot of us out there. Mark Moondragon had a dream to creat a Universe of models and fiction for those. He was one person w...
You are excused my friend, god they were a trail. have you any more of Marks Info files, from the old blog?. Not all of mine made it to this computer, the old site although still up, but is missing...
@Caratacus the Hittites actually look really good for gnomes. So i will give my vote for that... but... if i were to suggest I would either go with a French, 3-musketeer theme. Kind...
@William Redford https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/67272/gnomes @Grumpy Gnome I think you'll like this too
As the result of discussion on this thread https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topics/index/44361/dwarf-ideas with @William Redford, I have developed this separate thread to discuss the...
With North Star, Fireforge and others, there's a serious glut of inexpensive plastic humans, dwarves and elves out there. And as others have said, most historical pre-modern kits are good for human...
Right now, Space Westerns are pretty well catered for, and you have an easy mashup with parts from the Dead Man's Hand kits. Robots or would be top of my list, though Space Kitties or Space Dogs w...
Anyone using CAD to sculpt can move to hard plastic relatively easily. The sculptors that still do it by hand may not be able to convert as easily - my guess is that Hasslefree, Copplestone and Fou...
@Geoff Maybury Added some Stryker and MRAP photos here: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/53697/museumhistoric-sites-displays-photo-thread Though honestly I think they ...
More Germany..... Strykers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stryker Stryker VS MRAP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_MaxxPro
That's true - I think I just trend towards the conservative in thought about smaller games companies, and what they can invest in. But WA now having thier own means of production should help that a...
Some more stuff: Frostgrave barbarians, Stargrave gun arms, WGA Lizardmen heads for some tough looking alien goons: Heads from the Frostrgrave Barbarian sprue on Stargrave Crew. In my Traveller...
Thank you. Cannon Fodder bodies, Stargrave Crew heads and arms. Shoulder pads are from the Panzerjagers, the star badge is from the Dead Man's Hand Gunfighters. Barely visible on their rear left be...
@Mark Dewis those are awesome.
The Space Cops I made up last week:
I like the Stargrave kits. They suit general SF gaming - I'm mostly using them for the Traveller RPG - but you have to consider how young Stargrave is. The three kits issued at launch are basically...
@Brian Van De Walker style wise, sure. I would still argue they are more similar than not, even down to the aspect warrior training camps vs the elves units (lion, Phoenix, etc) but again that...
@William Redford Bro, I own examples of both and the 40k elves are very clearly space Japanese (they have Katanas, nagitanas, shurikan gun and samurai flags, not to mention the body hugging armor),...
@Caratacus Actually VSF /steampunk gaming tends to be more in the mid19th to early 20th century (mostly Victorian and early Edwardian same time frame as the Sherlock Holms stories) and so too are...
@Brian Van De Walker The only non traditional dwarves I ever really liked were the Gully dwarves from Dragon Lance... but like I said, I'm not really passionate on the subject. Now ...
@Benjamin Hayward I agree they should be done with cross genre gaming mind, I also feel the same way about the other classic races (ie the WFB/LOTR races) particularly since blackpowder fantasy set...
Oh and I do enjoy some Weird West dwarf... Reaper produced one model I am using with very light conversion in my neo W40K setting.. the famed Olav Gunderson Dwarf Gambler
Kickstarter link This looks really awesome. Figured someone might be interested. I know Paolo Parente had some of these characters in a guest box In Zombicide Black Plague.., which i do have and t...
@Benjamin Hayward As a matter of facts, I do like the WFB 2nd Dwarves because they were supposed to be quite a motley race depending of the human civilization they lived close to. So: Kar...
@Caratacus ... :( we were promised a gnome thread... I see no gnome thread! you tease!
The balancing act is that the dwarves would need to be unique enough that it would give people a reason to buy them over whatever is already available, and be something that people would ...
@Steven StGeorges those alpine gnomes are interesting. Undead gnomes too. :)
.. and speaking of Gnomes, just pay a visit to Old School Miniatures and be amazed: https://www.oldschoolminiatures.co.uk/alpine-gnomes-3-c.asp Oh and check their Chaos Dwarves range... so funky ...
@William Redford No trouble about Mr Redford. They are awesome sculpts when compared to old C Series or N14 Ogres. The Mongol look was already part of the latter by the way, mixed with some ...
@Steven StGeorges The GW mongol ogres... I actually like them... I know, I know... I am not sure why i like them, but I do... :(
