Today I based three #minis on washers with magnets and prepped two more.
Based: two undead wolves from #ReaperMiniatures #03736 Dread Wolves (2) multi-pack and a #zombie from #03471 Zombies (3) multi-pack.
Prepped: the other two #zombies from #03471.
I don't like #03471 Zombies (2) as much as two I painted in Feb. from #03601 Ronnie and Reggie, Zombies (2), but I want more metal zombies. I'd like a sizeable zombie horde.
Tonight, soon: Priming...
Here she is in all her glory. She hasn't actually made it to a table yet though, because the group that was on-track to meet her fell apart over 2020.
She was just meant to show-up and demand they tell her which way Krampus went. She was hunting #Krampus and the party had seen him the previous session.

I like #MetalMiniatures. It is difficult to find metal miniatures of all the creatures I would like to have for my #TTRPG campaign.
In this instance, I'd like to find a metal gug that is decent. #ReaperMiniatures has a metal gug, but it's silly and cartoonish. (It looks like vagina dentata with limbs.)
The #PathfinderRPG gug has great art and I'd love to find something along the lines of their artwork. I've found some resin versions, but metal is elusive.
My #miniatures from #CrookedDiceMiniatures arrived a day earlier than estimated.
I got the new "Meddling Kids" set representing the gang from Scooby Doo. Between being sculpts of cartoon characters and being from new molds, the casts are very clean.
I probably won't base/paint them right away, but I am looking forward to it. I might not be able to wait.
The new #undead minis are more useful at the table so should be prioritized.
I've done something unforeseen: I've ordered MORE metal #miniatures.
OK, not really unforeseen. I wanted these miniatures before but needed to buy better miniature storage/transport first.
I ordered from #CrookedDiceMiniatures, who have a bunch of the #OtherworldMiniatures sculpts. I got the Otherworld #Ghouls (naked) and #Ghasts (clothed).
I also got a #skeleton warrior and Crooked Dice's new "Meddling Kids" 5-pack.

In this week's YouTube video we took a deep dive into the WoodFolk. Here are two of your Curadh (command) choices, or you can take your Makar (battle bard) as an Eachraidh (elite) option. #Shivershield #thewoodswargame #fantasyminiatures #fantasywargaming #oldhammer #metalminiatures #fantasywargame
So a week ago I posted that I got a #miniatures case with metal trays.
I magnetized a some of my minis but I had to stop because I ran out of #magnets, some miniatures were too small for the magnets, and some were completely filled with #Kneadatite "Green Stuff" epoxy underneath.
I ordered a cheap #Dremel and I've been using it to grind out the Green Stuff. I also ordered a package of mixed-size magnets so now I have some for the smaller miniatures.
I bought a #miniatures case. It's wood with metal trays and a plexiglass front. I bought magnets that I attached to some miniatures, but some of the miniatures I had filled the bottoms with epoxy so they were flat. I've ordered a Dremel to drill the epoxy for the magnets.
I need another magnet option for large metal figures. In testing my large #Krampus #miniature fell. He snapped from his base, his hand came off, and his paint chipped two places.
This week I prepped three #ReaperMiniatures for my #Pathfinder1e #Ustalav session on 21 February.
I painted three zombies but one is a pirate #zombie with a sword (#14428). I painted him as a gray-skinned ash wight (variant cairn #wight). His sculpt resembles a skeleton with withered skin over his bones, dressed as a sailor. The others (#03601) look decrepit and wear rags.

I ordered more #Miniatures yesterday in spite of the fact that I really need a better way to transport more to my #Pathfinder sessions.
I got some zombies, some zombie wolves, a wraith with a scythe, giant rats, four humans (including Sir Forscale), a set of Halloween-themed familiars, a well-armored skeleton/death knight, a pennangalan, and a leucrotta ("badger wolf"). All are metal #ReaperMiniatures ordered from #Pippd on Ebay.

I bought some #cultist #miniatures (#ReaperMIniatures 03940) for my #Pathfinder1e game. They're three miniatures all wearing matching robes and carrying daggers. I might also paint a #skeleton mini in a matching robe.
What color should I paint their robes?
I'll probably use them as demon cultists of #Jezelda (female demon lord of werewolves) but they might worship other demons as the need for cultists arises.
I just learned about another English miniature company today.
Midlam Miniatures.
https://www.midlamminiatures.co.uk/
I looked through their catalog and found some stuff I like
I really like the miniatures they have listed as "vampire goblins." They're as close as I've found to a #Pathfinder1e #dretch, and I've been looking for something to use as a dretch for awhile now.

My order from #OtherworldMiniatures arrived today (07 August 2024). It was shipped from the UK to the US in surprisingly good time.
I got a Marilith demon, a trio of spiders, and a Grendel figure. The Marilith came in four parts (body, tail, and two unattached arms), but the others are all single-piece castings.
The spiders might pose a basing challenge for me; only their spindly legs touch the ground.

I received a notice early this morning that a package I ordered from the UK is shipping. No idea how long it will take to arrive, but it's shipping.
I placed the order on 10 July 2024. It was for a miniature manufacturer (#OtherWorldMiniatures) closing/retirement sale with everything on the site 50% off so I knew it would be awhile to ship. I missed the Pig-faced #Orcs, they were sold out when I heard about the sale.

I got my #DarkswordMiniatures yesterday.
They included a freebie #miniature. I don't know if that's random or because I'm a new customer.
I got my new #Owlbear and Cubs (DSM4634) and Female Vampire (DSM1197) cleaned and ready for priming, and prepped some steel washer bases for them.
I'm excited to get that owlbear on the table in my #Pathfinder1e #Ustalav game, though its CR (4) is too high to actually use soon.
It took me two months to finally place an order for #miniatures. I guess I've been distracted by other things, and sending money other directions.
I just ordered #DarkswordMiniatures #Owlbear and Cubs (SKU DSM4634) and Female Vampire (SKU DSM1197).
I still haven't finished the pair of #Paizo #Kalavakus #demons I had started painting; I focused instead on lower CR stuff for my low level game.

I want to buy #miniatures but I can't decide which ones I want to buy first.
I'm torn between a #DarkswordMiniatures #Owlbear and Cubs, or #OtherworldMiniatures Pig-faced #Orcs as possible discretionary purchases this month.
If I order from Otherworld Miniatures it will be shipped from the UK so will take the longest to arrive.
I'm currently painting a pair of #Kalavakus #demons I ordered from #Paizo last month.

So I'm trying to fill out the ranks of my demon hordes metal #miniatures for #ttRPG.
The one I'm looking for right now that I can't find is the lowly dretch.
I'm hoping to find something that resembles the art style of the #Pathfinder1e dretch.
Basically a loin-clothed small "ugly-baby" or "dad-bod ghoul" look. It's a small creature though, so like goblin-sized.
Any suggestions?
