New Miniature Company RuneCast Opens It’s Doors
November 25, 2013 by brennon
A new company looking to bring heroic scale 28mm miniatures to the tabletop has appeared and they have begun with clearly the best miniatures, Dwarfs. See what you think of some of RuneCast's line-up!
As you can see they have started things off in style with some old school but rather ace looking Dwarfs that will form the command group of the Lansquenet Dwarfs. They might not fit into a typical Dwarf army for something like Warhammer Fantasy but maybe you could make them as an alternative regiment for your Empire force!
As well as the Dwarfs he has delved into the strange and the odd especially with this creepy looking Satyr Ancient. This one immediately grabbed my attention as it reminded me a little of the creatures from a Del Toro movie. A perfect dark fantasy miniature.
On top of all that they are also exploring the realms of Sci-Fi with some neat looking Cultists. It's always fun to see the underbelly of a cult and unleash some crazy people onto the battlefield. I could see the chap above being a great way of representing a champion of some kind.
RuneCast are also doing a selection of bitz which you can check out by following the link above. The miniatures as a whole are turning out quite well and I think it might be one to watch.
What do you think?
The dwarves look almost identical to the 80’s GW dwarf line i.e. Bugman’s and Ulther’s. Same sculptor, I wonder? Nice paint, though.
Very similar to the Marauder range – which is definitely a good thing!
Very good indeed… Taking what was good about Citadel !
love the vintage feel of those models. seems like now it is all about looking ‘real’ a ‘true’ to scale.
great work, will def buy some.
Lovely. Jice to see dwarves with swords again. They’re brilliant at making them but don’t use them, come on!
This is what GW need to return to. Characterful creations that first attracted me to them.
These are truly proper Dwarves! I have been in the hobby for so long I don’t even care to remember, and I have seen a lot of great and also some weir things: in the past 20-something years figure sculpting in general has gone up and up, and yet just compare the Morrisons’ dwarves from the early nineties with today’s horrible offerings… Give thanks for these independent sculptors that create fine things instead of worrying only about how to take the weekly allowance from some 10 year old kid! Give thanks and support them! No, I have nothing to do… Read more »
