My daughter likes Pathfinder characters for which there may be no miniatures. I thought that her middle-eastern female with a scimitar and rifle was hard, but THIS? - Female - Halfling - Barbarian - Armed with a Nodachi (long-handled Japanese greatsword) Some modification seems inevitable, but...

I'm trying to find an appropriate 25-28 mm mini for my daughter's Pathfinder RPG character: She's a gunslinger clad in middle-eastern style robes over her chainmail and armed with a musket and a scimitar. So far it looks like my best bet might be to modify some sort of robed wizard-type...

I've been trying for quite a while to locate figures to portray rune giants for a Pathfinder game I'm running. If you don't know what I mean, take a look at some of Wayne Reynolds' cool cover art from The Spires of Xin-Shalast...

I've been searching for information about painting old WotC plastic minis: They're still plentiful, some common ones can be found cheaply, and I already have quite a few that would look much better with a quick tabletop-quality paint job. They might not ever be top-notch, but they aren't...

In the minis swap, Benihaha sent me a cool 40K mini, a Chaos Space Marine Lord. While I'm not a 40K player, I was considering how to make this guy really rock. There's just one problem: I'm a stuffy purist at heart, so if I'm going to work on this guy I want to do everything right. I had a...

I'm trying to put together a bunch of minis for an upcoming game, but haven't been able to purchase figures with the look I want. The ideal minis would be the Watchers of Karna by Games Workshop, but since GW told my friendly local game store they can't sell these minis, GW products aren't an...

When drilling and pinning isn't an option, what gives the best join for metal on metal? I'm working on a Warmachine mini with numerous projecting parts (Wraith Witch Deneghra) and I envision them breaking off every time the mini is used for a game.

I've been looking for a half-orc mini for one of my players' PCs. The character is best described as follows: Male Half Orc Breastplate Greatsword Cross-dresser Bow in hair For some reason, the selection of transvestite half-orcs seems rather limited.

I have vague memories of reading somewhaere about people making their own decals. Have you guys seen anything like that? I'd like to make detailed heraldry on some knightly figures, but haven't got the precision to repeatedly duplicate such details.

I'm still fairly new to the site, but I wanted to offer a suggestion for consideration by the administrators: I've visited the site for several weeks and find the forums and tutorials very informative, but I just got my first helpful comment on the main site today. When each mini I submitted had...

I'd like to find some sort of figures that could be converted to serve as rune giants for my games in the Pathfinder RPG setting. As described in the setting and depicted in its art, rune giants are particularly large, towering over 60 feet tall. They prefer vaguely oriental armor and...

In the past, I've always used squadron green putty when I needed to fill in areas on a figure. While it works adequately to "spackle in" gaps, it always seemed a bit brittle for other work. This week, I'm repositioning and building up limbs on several figures. I want to modify their faces...

I painted Pharess the Fire Sorceress a couple of years ago to depict my daughter's druid PC. While she worked fine as a mini for tabletop play, I've never been completely satisfied with my results. While I've learned better ways to paint her face, I'd love some suggestions for better depicting...
