This was an interesting find I'd forgotten about... must have picked it up a long time ago. The Armory Miniatures Guides are an absolute gem for miniature identification (so far they seem to have produced 5 of which I only have 3). This short painting guide is quite good!
I'm slowly getting around to selling some of my Mithril collection to finance my credit card payments... really should have got a job instead of living off them. Here I unearthed a recently oop set - Armies of Gondor I - Lossarnach Province (M424 - M433) which featured the army of Lossarnach which was a region in Southern Gondor known as the Vale of Flowers.
This was the Mithril flyer thingy...
Picked up the first two WW1 volumes of Warhammer Historical only to find I already have them...
Managed to sort out some of a job lot I picked up recently which included these wonderful Grenadier Wizzards and Warriors line W29 Slimes, Molds & Jellies. Wish I could get the blister pack (that image c/o Lost Minis WIKI). You have to remember that these were from the late 70's (1976 I think) and are what old school is all about.
Hopefully launching an expansion to the Bar room Brawl series on Kickstarter in the next couple of months so am busy trying to paint up 'The Dozing Dragon' Inn... the dwarves frequent the oversized basement of course.
And a mystery mini... approx 35mm tall and no base markings. Some form of dungeon ooze/slime etc - any ideas? It's not Heroes or Starcast so far.
Found an old Standard Games leaflet... love looking through my cupboards and finding these oddments...
Lastly, has anyone got any of these Masquerade Miniatures Germanics? The only info I have to go off is via the Lost Minis WIKI; Masquerade Miniatures was based in Waltrop and run by Stefan Niehues with the website domain created 2010-09-09. The company is no longer active but the domain now redirects to the BeesPutty sculpting website which is run by Stephan and his StudioworX Atelier & Maufaktur company [1] (now based in Olfen). He also ran a blog under the crownbear & modellierworkshop moniker that was shut down when Masquerade stopped being active.
They look like very nice miniatures.
Goodnight from my Arya...
