Brand new company founded by members from HERE! omg I know , I know! So far first two factions are vampires there will be other undead and living factions! We just got started but take a look.

Feel free to drop off ideas or suggestions as we develop our model ranges! Or other ideas y'all might have!

So I've made a few purchases outside of GW for my VC army and have mixed opinions about the items. From Reaper I got the 'Cleric of Urgathoa' mini as a vampire on foot (some elegance to all that death and decay in the army).

I also got Mantics 'Zombies' and love the poses and lack of weapons (as they should be), however over half are assembled to hold something in their hands. Anyone have any good ways around this?

undead ogres demons and empire etc alternatives

Just stumbled across this manufacturer on my quest to find undead goblins; their have zombie orcs & night goblins (even command groups), cannibal goblins that would serve nicely as zombie goblins, ghost orcs & night goblins which could make nicely themed spirit hosts and also ethereal undead orc cavalry; orcy black knights/hexwraiths anyone?

They also have some undead vampiric orc character on foot.

Great pool of resources for anyone looking to venture off the beaten path and do an undead OnG force.

You probably already know Raging Heroes, just thought I'd highlight that their female Werewolves are on SALE on 13th and 14th November

40% off they are still 69 euros, but I'm tempted...

Spotted this from a new Polish mini maker, it's intended as a Nurgle giant but I think some of you might fancy it as Undead...

Picked up these two lovely chappies from Mierce Miniatures, not sure what I'm going to do with them but they may be of interest to others. Each big enough to represent a Spirit Host, maybe?

Interesting models @Shadespyre

They look pretty good, what's the size comparison to GW? They would work very well in a Nighthaunt army, although I'd probably say the GW models are better looking

This One's Over...

Just scrolled up and noticed this.....

I mean, you all know I'm a big lover of the female form, but bloody hell, they just look wrong - it wouldn't surprise me if the sculptor of these was a secret furry who got to go full hog with his fantasies

 

[Shadespyre]

That's a normal sized shield, so these guys are about 2" / 5 cm tall.

Surprised you haven't seen the giant lady wolves before, I did actually buy and paint a set, as thy fit the all-female characters theme of my army.

Any pics of your painted models? They might grow on me

@Shadespyre So cool to see you having those dudes. I always wanted to get a whole unit of them, but seeing how costly that would be, I keep pushing it away I will be eagerly waiting for you to paint them

Mierce Miniatures have a pretty wide range of undead, skeletal miniatures, but they are all resin/metal and intended to use in a skirmish game - so while they're extremely good-looking, getting WFB/AoS sized armies will be quite expensive...

 

[Shadespyre]

Got to be honest - I picked these up half price and I thought that made them reasonable, normally £15 each which is ridiculous. They are nice models though!

Not sure whether to paint them as spirits (green like my army wraiths etc) or go for a more dark and sombre look which I think would suit them very nicely.

 

[Sception]

Raging heroes has already been mentioned as a possible alternative manufacturer, for people playing in venues that allow 3rd party stand ins, but it's worth pointing out that they're putting out a new unit of knights for their line of lady warriors, and the models could make for some pretty nice blood knights, particularly in a Neferata-led Lahmia/Legion of Blood type army:

Spoiler

They're also cheaper than Blood Knights, though admittedly not by all that much.

Just wondering if anyone can let me know, is there a better way for me to find some old unpainted Lahmian models other than eBay?

Anyone tried the movement trays from Element Games?
Element Games
I feel like that's the best deal and shape unless anyone has a good tip?
