Hobday & Hicks Preview Their New Fantasy Dwarves

March 13, 2024 by brennon

Hobday & Hicks have been dropping some more sneak peeks at what's coming up for their 28mm Fantasy range. We've seen Elves, Orcs and Humans and now it's the time of the Dwarves. The best of the Fantasy races.

Dwarves Preview // Hobday & Hicks

Sculpted by Paul Hicks once again, this Dwarf is an absolutely gorgeous addition to the collection. The Tolkienesque nature of the miniatures continues and I love the layered armour and the slightly more Middle Eastern style helmet. It works really well and marks them out as different from your typical Dwarf. The scale also looks to work nicely against that Elf.

Here's some of the lore from their recent preview...

"The dwarves, a surly lot, carve their lives in the heart of the mountains. For generations, their hammers have rung against the rock, extracting precious metals and crafting wonders in the flickering light of their forges. Isolated and fiercely independent, they view outsiders with suspicion, distrusting all who approach their mountain strongholds. While they engage in trade, their dealings are conducted with a wary eye. Cross them and face their wrath, for dwarves' vengeance is swift and brutal, a storm unleashed from the mountains themselves."

I can't wait to see what else is going to be popping up as part of this Fantasy range. It can't be that far off being turned into something we can play!
