Good morning / evening (delete as appropriate)

I am considering raising a 28mm Chinese army.
I want the proportions to be historically viable but...
I'm going to paint it as the Terracotta Army, and may use it as a Fantasy Warhammer collection.

Who makes good 28mm 2nd C BC Chinese?

I don't mind paying a fair price for fair toys, but I want it to be the whole collection from one source...

Thanks in advance

Tang is more modern than what you want but might be worth a look.

There also are several ranges of later Chinese such as Song and Ming. What they lose in chariots they gain in rocket launchers.

I'm writing a load of fiction. My latest story starts here... This is the index of all the stories...

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

Ha,
I now have more than 7500 points, and the game's going South!
Typical.
Best keep hold of 8th Edition and close my eyes to the future.

PS: If anyone else is considering Chinese, "Black Hat" do some gorgeous fantasy figures.

There is a kickstarted coming up for: Watchful I Studios:

They have what look to be the best Qin/Terracotta Warriors based figures I have ever seen.

If I were doing Chinese, these would be who I would wait for.

I am glad to see that they are more realistically proportioned, and I hope this is a sign that we may be moving back toward less a cartoonish figures and more realistic proportions.
