Artisan Guild Bring To Life Amazing Dwarf Miniatures!
September 29, 2015 by brennon
Artisan Guild Miniatures are going to be working on a range of 28-32mm scale miniatures in heroic proportions. You know that I really love Dwarves so when I saw these I was totally smitten. See what you think of their range so far...
Wild Rangers
Heading out into the foothills we have these Dwarf Rangers with some very tidy looking kit. I love the fact that while they are certainly Fantasy based they have some very awesome gun-axes and a pistol with a hefty blade.
I particularly like the look of the squad as a whole with their hoods, another superb addition to a Dwarf to make him look even more epic. I could see these fitting into Kings of War especially as leaders for units.
Footsloggers
Armed with hammer, axe and shield the Warriors are another rather awesome looking unit of Dwarfs. I'm not too fond of the smaller buckler shields or the tower shield that the Captain is using but I think the rest is great.
Once again this would work as a good unit of solid infantry for a large game or a warband in a smaller one.
Riders!
Taking the faster approach into battle they have also created these Wulfhog Riders, a dangerous foe for anyone to come up against I'm sure. I like the stance of both beast and rider and they sit well in the saddle.
Of all of the models that we've seen I think this is the best of the bunch. I'd love to see a lot more of these come together as a hefty cavalry option for Fantasy armies.
Ancient Trolls
Other deadly beasts exist in the wilds thanks to Artisan Guild too. If you want an enemy to face with your Dwarves then I could see this Wood Troll being quite the challenge...
Another fantastic and wonderfully well sculpted model. I think they've done some great work on his facial expressions to make him look feral but also with a glimmer of intelligence. I also approve of the slouch and loose arm hanging across his club, just thinking of a reason to smash his foes apart.
What do you think of their work so far?

Those look really good.
that boar rider is simply incredible 😀
I can imagine a lot of orc players wanting that too 😉
Definitely have to grab that troll. I have my Dungeon Saga pledge in the post and I’ve been mulling over the idea of getting some print-and-play maps for RPGs to take a swing at “Forest Crawling”. This guy would be an ideal boss to guard something important.
Those gun-axes :O not usually a big buyer of fantasy themed stuff but could well be tempted by these!
lol, I was watching agents of shield today, and when mack said “some kind of axe shotgun combination would be good”
I instantly thought about these 😛 ha ha
Think I would have done as well haha
Also don’t know whether to be concerned that one of my other favourite minis is Abe Lincoln from WWX, who is also wielding a gun-axe 🙂
You had me till the Herman Munster boots.
They look like they may even give Scibor a run for their gold coin! However I do not do FB and although I can see them without said account, when things are brough t these notices, would it be too much where and when known to put the bloody price on.
OK pretty please. (you have no idea how much it takes!!!!) LOL

Wow! The dwarves are marvellous, and I like the troll very very much as well %)
Hope to see more from the studio, they truly are a gem!
Troll’s got a great expression.
