This one nearly slipped by me. My Bank Account may wish it had.
But that's the brilliant thing about Kickstarter: so many unique fun ideas are possible.
Like dwarves?
Like dashing adventure?
Like charming characters called Musketeers? (despite they never seem to ever use a musket.. ever.
Really never understood that one. It's like calling Jedi Knights "Blastermen". I digress.)
If you answered yes to any of those and especially if to all of them check out Iron Mask Miniatures' Dwarf Musketeer Kickstarter. It has only a few days left!
The miniatures are nothing short (haha, get it?) of awesome. They have that character-saturated style of 80's GW Dwarf characters, with the modern advantage of lots of separate heads and hands to create just the dwarf you want in the pose you want.
The bodies remind me of how Rakham Confrontation miniatures often are: ball joint neck, socket head, for easy posing options. Excellent.
Two sets of dwarf musketeer heads: fancy floppy hats (above) and variety of styles (below):
As add-ons they even have some dwarves with integrated heads, so they can have longer traditional dwarf beards, and those ringlet wigs.. those will come back in style someday, just you wait.
There are also Ogre Guards, likely in the employ of Cardinal Rich-dwarf:
Ogres also have separate heads and hands so you can get a lot of variety.
The Reward sets also come with a pdf of skirmish rules.
I'm a sucker for skirmish games, a sucker for dwarves.. yeah, you know the drill.
These dwarves would also make a great warband for a skirmish game like Songs of Blades & Heroes, Mordheim, Legends of the High Seas, etc.
Most of the sets also come with a free couple of dwarf musketeers, a dwarf in the Iron Mask, and since the project has been funded before August 3rd, there will be a free Cardinal Dwarf too! It has been funded- I have the honor of kicking in the pledge that edged it across the finish line.
They look like a lot of fun to paint, so if they look fun to you, check out their kickstarter.. not much time left!
