Dark Sword Show Off More Visions of Fantasy

Dark Sword Miniatures have a host of new models for you to add to your collection. Check out the rather extensive wave below that ranges from anthropomorphic adventurers, to Elmore inspired warrior women. There are even a few special edition pieces...
Some great animalistic warriors there. My favourite is the Wild Cat Scottish Warrior, a proper clansman that I would be proud to have in my collection. Dark Sword certainly cater to the wild and wonderful, so take your pick!
Next is the selection from both the Elmore collection, and their general role-playing miniatures. Internet points to the people who can work out which one is from Dragonlance! Plenty of miniatures for all kinds of collections here.
And last but not least are these two special edition miniatures both celebrating the 10th Anniversary of Dark Sword Miniatures. The second is also special in that it commemorates Dennis Mize who was the first sculptor to sign with the company. The Male Fighter with THE Dark Sword is also a pretty awesome model!
That's seventeen miniatures to choose from, as well as the rest of their astounding range!
Which one will you take home with you?
Bit of a mixed bag with some good, some excellent and some rubbish
I thought the Samurai was not too bad at all

Have we regressed 50 years in gender politics?
Don’t care if you call me PC gone mad, this is bad.
Tanis Half-Elven!
Well done, have an internet cookie 🙂

The Female Elven Fighter reminds me of Dragonlance’s Laurana as the ‘Golden General’. A little bit of work could make that spear look more like a footman’s dragonlance. The Dark Sword 10th Anniversary Fighter with the Two Handed sword could be used as a proxy for Dragonlance’s Caramon. Although this one is intended as… Read more »
The manimals are the best of the lot. Some of the others look good but some just look ugly.
The women actually wearing clothes are outstanding. As for the others, I stopped buying those when I moved out of my mom’s basement. For those of you still so inclined, may I direct your raging hormones instead, to the numerous examples of porn on the internet. Enjoy.
Nice amount of detail for 28-30mm.
I particularly like the ring-wraith looking guy, it’s hard to beat a nice simple appearance.
The with is awesome. It’d make a brilliant necromancer, shadow or death mage too
I actually think mermaid and barbarian queen are acceptable from pulp point of view, but the pirates are too much.
Wraith and female mage are probably my favorites, as are some of the manimals.
