So our DM rocks. He's done a lot of work to make our RPG game awesome.

I wanna do something nice. (our game is virtual/ online, but it would be fun to paint him up a few nice figures)

Send me links to nice dwarves that I can paint up and send him. He's a kings of war player, fantasy guy, but basically anything cool and dwarfy you suggest, I'll check out and maybe paint up for the guy!

Thanks for any and all suggestions!

I play...

Sigh.

Who am I kidding? I only paint these days...

In reality there is a crapton of dwarf minins out there on the wild google, you should not have any issue finding a suitable mini for your needs.

That narrows it down.... to about 200 or so.

A lot of them are 'generic dwarf waving an axe' - YMMV - but look at this guy. Heehee.

This guy's a bit more intimidating.

This is fun.

This is an impressive set piece, even if it only comes in Bones.

Egads! Some great options there. I'll get them all!

OK. Maybe not.

anyone have any experience with Dark Sword? I've heard they're good.

Never heard of them before but will definitely will check em out.

They are 10 bucks each, that means those are metal, and metal usually come out much better than plastics.
And those sculpts are freaking awesome!

Red box miniatures make some nice dwarves, and at $5 a go, they're a steal.

I've heard of Darksword before. They got a lot of licences of the original Dragonlance artists (Elmore being my fave).
Their pitch is that the figures are more naturally scaled, including the weapons.

I've got a few of the Avatars of War dwarfs and they are ultra cool.

Forgot about those. They are nice minis as well. Very much in the GW flavour, if that's your thing.

Actually, the AOW dwarfs were of the modern GW design before GW! I think GW took their inspiration from AOW for their modern line, IMHO.
