Hello all,

Anyone recognize this miniature? No markings on the bottom and I added the lipped based. I love the design and was looking for painting inspiration, but don't know who made it!

Never seen it before, but getting big raging heroes vibes from it. But that’s a completely blind guess.

Is it one piece or two?

If it's multiple parts you can scratch out a giant chunk of classic Ral Patha minis.

I don't know it either, but metal with good flowing movement seems like Confrontation to me.

Very cool mini. It gives me has Confrontation and Warmachine vibes also. I don't think it's either and Google Lens couldn't find the exact figure. Still, but I'd check those two lines if you want figures in a similar style.

If you do find out what it is, please let us know. Quite a mystery.

It definitely looks like old Rakham Confrontation in aesthetics (specifically Kelt/Drune or Wolfen Vestals), but most of those models were a single cast and I can see where this one has a lot of little pieces.

I thought it looked very Warmachine/Hordes but I don't recognise it.

I wonder if it was one of their "MiniCrate" models which were one-and-done short term releases

It is multi part.

I'm pretty familiar with Hordes/Warmachine, and privateer press is pretty good about marking their minis.

I do agree, Confrontation vibes for sure, but the voodoo styling also made me think malifaux.

Edit: Google lense hase been less than helpful.

Yeah, agree with the confrontation vibes. Maybe it's something from the https://cadwallon.com/ people. As far as I know they started out selling Rackham stuff, also added some Rackham stuff that was either unreleased (unused moulds?) or where they actually had miniatures sculpted from unused concepts, before finally doing their own "somewhat Rackham inspired" Legends of Signum line of miniatures.

Maybe you can find the source of that miniature there?

Went through the full website with no luck. I'm actually impressed how hard this has been to find!

Yeah its strange because it looks like a fairly modern well sculpted model. You'd think we'd have come across it in some form to make it easy to spot. esp as its metal so its not in the realm of vast numbers of random boardgame PVC models

A little surprising the Dakka hivemind didn’t get it within a few minutes of posting. Collectively we used to be able to nail these “what mini is this” in pretty crazy speeds no mater how odd the subject was.

Now I kind of want to do a bit of a Dakka quiz

The only other idea I have is that maybe it's kit-bashed/converted? Is it made up of multiple parts (the head looks darker, and some stuff at the lower half of the apron looks like it might be glued into place)? Then the issue of not finding it might be because it doesn't exist (in stores) in this form.

Me too!

I hate to even suggest it, but at this point it may be necessary. Perhaps the Grognards over at "The Miniature's Page" might know?

Anybody got a good catalogue for the old CMON Dark Age game? It's got that feel to it, but image search is slow and CMON doesn't look to have the range images archived.

Came complete on two white metal gates. One had body, head, left arm, the other had skirt front and right arm.

I wish I remembered where I even got this mini. I remember it came in a clear ziplock. I want to say it came in a swag bag from a convention with a Conquest limited edition mini (separate packaging) and some Japanese bolt action sprues, but I'm honestly not sure.
