What is your favourate miniature and why? It can be from ANY company, any year, converted or original, golden demon or white dwarf articles, this forum or another forum, big or small, fat or thin, black or white anything goes!
(though keep in mind this is a family forum ;))
Mine is this mini from Golden Demon a couple of years back…
Beastmen Shaman by Joe Hill
Gold - Warhammer Single Miniature
I was quite content with painting the miniatures I bought straight from the box before I saw this and realised the full potential of converting. From then on I started mixing and matching parts from different mini’s and eventually got around to working with Green-Stuff and realised the possibilities that GS has.
Not only has it inspired me so but it looks pretty kick ass aswell :cheers! To this day it has remained one of my favourate miniatures and will be hard to beat!
I can’t specifically pick out one, but I like the older GW Dwarfs and Chaos Dwarfs. Really almost any of them put a smile on my face, it’s a shame that I really don’t own many.
As far as all of GW’s minis go, I think my all time favourite is one of those special edition Space Marine vet. sergeants they gave out at GD. It was the one with the lightning claws… always wanted to paint one of those.
These. Bar none. I LOVE these minis. Chris Fitzpatrick did an excellent job on the basti models and it is these that I am centering a Tomb Kings of Khemri army around, as well as a modified Lahmian Army.
Ahh yes I have recently dicovered Crocodile Games, great site! I have lifted alot of the head-gear designs for my future CD’s! Very cool models!

Are we talking about favourite miniature, or favourite painted miniature?
:~ fine then…

Oh, favourite miniature of all time… that would have to be an =I= scale Emperor’s Children marine I saw on the B&C yeeaarrss ago. I have a pic somewhere, I can scan it and post if its not against forum rules… not sure if it is, this thing hasn’t been seen in atleast four or five years.
Personally, I’ve always been quite a big fan of the Titans. ForgeWorld has managed to produce some gorgeous models (and has in my opinion done a far better job with the Epic version of the Warhound then Games Workshop did…), so I guess my favourite would be the Wolf Class Warhound Titan.
For GW made miniatures its gotta be tha new black orcs, possibly grimgor or Ruglud’s armoured orcs, lets face it, i just like big orcs in armour, im sorry i dont know why
Right now m favourite minitures are hordes of chaos limited editions. Archaon on Foot, Crom, Kordel Shorgaar, the new mounted sorceror. I just cant help but think they are awesome. Id love to get Kordel Shorgaar and paint a massive rune of hashut on it and use it in my CD army. I know that that probably couldnt ever happen unless chaos dwarfs teamed up with chaos but it would be awesome as an army standard. I also live stabb the acolyte but i have never been able to findit on ebay.
