Title: Old School DnD minis
Post by: Corso on 01 October 2024, 09:02:29 PM
This will likely be one of those projects that will progress by chance.

25mm Old School Ral Patha don't have many suitable peers.

Excellent work and I still have some of my original figures from Ral Parta when playing DnD in the mid-late 1970's. Sculpting has come on leaps and bounds since then but I still love them!

I don't know I think the Julie Guthrie figures hold their own quite well against many ranges, their issue is they are around 25mm full height so nothing else really match

I'm looking at 20mm or 1/72 at the moment atleast for adversaries

In 1/72 plastic this range may have something

Great minds

I picked up a spue of the Rangers from Ebay on the off chance

If they don't work I can always cut off the scabards, quivers etc. and use them elsewhere

The look really good together, certainly not enough of an obvious difference to worry about on the table.

This is a very impressive range that I was previously unaware of.
Ideal for larger scale HoTT armies as well.

Sadly that is the problem with spell-checkers they do become dyslexic after a while (if you are).
I now have to replace my phone every few years as it just starts typing more gibberish than I do  ;D  ;D  ;D
