Admiral:

Since we’ve already got a handful of Tjubling collectors on these boards, let’s share 15mm finds which might be of interest to enhance the collection. Got warmachine or greenskin tips?

I spent quite a while scouting out different suppliers' lines trying to decide on a project to start with, there are a lot of options out there!

*rolls up sleeves*

Ral Partha's Demonworld line is an excellent starting place. Very old-school Warhammer feel, great looking orcs and goblins and lots of war machines to use as bases for conversions, including a dwarf dreadnought/walker/golem type unit. In addition, most of the dwarf and greenskin artillery crews look like they will make great slave models :)

My last order was from Splintered Light, who have some very nice greenskins as well. I am using their 20mm goblins as hobgoblins, although they do not exactly fit the GW hobgoblin look and I am looking forward to tjub's creations :) They have an evil dwarf line as well, which are even further from the GW aesthetic but may be useful for conversions!

Khurasan Miniatures is another vendor I plan to use in the future. They have some interesting fantasy miniatures including another hobgoblin line that seems more suited to D&D and some very nice undead miniatures, but I am mostly interested in their historical lines which I will use for mercenaries, slaves and merchant caravans from Cathay, Ind and Araby.

Battle Valor also have some very nice looking greenskins and dwarfs, and lastly (off the top of my head anyway) the Blood Dawn line available from Magister Militum (you'll have to tick the checkbox in the lower left, I couldn't get the link to work properly) looks great as well, with some very large orcs that would make perfect black orcs!

Admiral:

Very good finds, thank you kindly, boyfights!

Me and boyfights had a conversation about Ogres for 15mm the other day, and I promised to take some photos for comparison. Ill post them here since there might be other interested, its CPmodels Pugbears for their 20mm range compared to Demonworlds Elves and Dwarves. I didn’t have any Tjublings available at the time so Ill just add them in here as well since that was the original question.





EDIT: Oh, and about your bases I think they look good for representing “the Darklands”, rocks and patches of vegetation. Personally Id go for some brown/grey flock similar to the green I have used on my 15mm stuff. I can be bought at most hobby stores and are available in loads of different colors.

Another one that’s definitely worth mentioning, though I’m not sure I would necessarily recommend most of their humanoid figures, is irregular miniatures. They’ve got a pretty extensive line of scenic, terrain, building and animal models that are all quite reasonably priced. Unfortunately it is an extremely 90’s website and many of the items don’t even have pictures, and I haven’t ordered from them personally so cannot vouch for them but I see them recommended all the time!

Crom’s Anvil have some Middle Eastern scenery and human slave miniatures (scroll down) of interest:
