Knightmare miniatures has a new kickstarter for their greenskin wars range. Most of the models are sculpted by Kev Adams. I jumped on board for the imperial ogre. kck.st/3dqIqjT I love his stuff on Knightmare, it has a real retro oldhammer feel. Some of the stuff on this KS looks like it should have been in the film Labyrinth.

I thought this might be of some interest to some people here who are looking for some quick modular buildings that can be assembled and disassembled for storage, in a snap

I follow the chap on insta who they commissioned to Paint up/‘beautify’ the buildings. His work is excellent.

Hadn't noticed this from Raging Heroes until now -- they have a War Mammoth out in 2 days: www.ragingheroes.com/collections/blood-tribes/products/kahr-marrohk-war-mammoth-bt-fLooks cool. Current 150 euros price is reasonable... for a war mammoth. I've only ever had one model from Raging Heroes before and I wasn't convinced of the quality of their resin casting -- hopefully this is better. I'm still happy I got the Mierce one instead.

I just got an order in from Heresy Lab. www.heresylab.com/I wanted to share some first hand pics of their stuff since it was mostly computer renderings or images that were difficult to reference scale. It said 28mm scale, but we all know how that can be a load of garbage. My impression is that the figures on foot are fairly accurate, the dogs were rather appropriate scale for dogs, but much smaller that the Mordheim dogs, the pavilion is a tad small - should've been larger, but will still work as a terrain piece, but the Knight..... dismally small. I'll probably put him on a pedestal and paint him bronze. The big thing that has bothered me though, is that I ordered a Witch Hunter (the dogs came with him) and I received all of this accessories, but not the man himself. I tried contacting them the best I could, but they don't have an email or phone # set up for contacting them. I'm waiting for a response, but not holding my breath.

That knight is dinky! He could be an Elector Count's teenage son sneaking off to war on a pony? Your statue idea is probably the best for it.
Hope you get your Witch Hunter sorted.

They did the first Mordheim celebratory figure and were pretty good at responding when I contacted them. That'd be awesome! They DID have a quick turnaround time. About two weeks!

I've been following Mantic Games' Kings of War releases a lot. At the moment they seem to be trying to compete with GW at selling Skaven (which is a rotten idea considering most of GW's Skaven models are great and GW's Skaven range still has a strong and loyal fanbase, especially when Mantic could have been working on their Empire of Dust range to punish GW for ditching Tomb Kings), but something decent has come out of it in the form of their Jezzails set: Resin like the GW ones but more modern sculpts and available in a set of 5 for £20 rather than 3 for a ridiculous £32.00. They also have a winged Verminlord sculpt that's more affordable than the GW one:

Good to see some decent Jezzarels coming out. The GW ones were WAAAY too expensive. That's why I've never gotten any. These could definitely be a possibility!
And I might be more inclined to clip the wings off that vermin Lord and use his without. They detract from the mini in my opinion.
