Warhammer Fantasy Player

[maproctor]

Hello all,
Googling cheap miniature alternatives got me here I'm a young husband and father who wants to pursue miniatures with higher cost efficiency than Games Workshop would like.

I've heard people make Warhammer Fantasy models themselves? Does any of that go on here? I play with friends and I think they'd be more impressed than upset that I don't support GW.

Looking forward,
Adam

There are a lot of free 'standee' style (2d card) miniatures that would probably fit the bill. I design (and sell) 3d poseable figurines that might work for humans in Warhammer Fantasy but they'd be a little big, scaled for 35mm instead of 28mm. You could probably scale it down, but it would ratchet the assembly difficulty up a bit.

Some great links to standee fantasy figs: http://onemonk.com/Home.html

My figs (I have a number of free ones to try) are in the store section here: http://tcfgaming.com

Have fun!
Tirick
