I dunno, I take some time off from the Hobby to try and regain some long lost gaming Mojo, and come back to find this – AB departing from the one true scale! – something is very wrong……..
Actually, being a Huuuuuuuuumongous Robert E Howard fan, am really happy to see this new direction of yours, and some barbarically good scenics and terrain you have been producing too, along with some great painting of the Conanesque minis – your main protagonist has a nice brooding look – and I think his female partner is going to be pretty deadly too……
As to tiny villagers – ummm, isn’t that exactly the right set of proportions? – put scrawny dirt scratching farmers next to ‘Heroic’ warriors and they’re spot-on – hell, put me and my majestic 5’8″ in a line-up between Schwarzenegger and Jason Momoa and I’d look a little on the small side too!
Talking of trees, what sort are you waiting on? – I’ve got quite a lot of spare stuff knocking around that is going begging, if you’re interested…… In the meantime, keep up the good work!
Not departing, never departing.
I have a 6mm project that I must chase up actually.
🙂Yeah, they are good for civvies but being new to not-6mm, I was surprised at the very clear difference in size.
Great as civilians as you say, but they would not be good as burly bad guys.Errm some palm tree type jobbies.
Cheers!

Some of the nastiest real life “bad guys/gals” I have observed were vicious little back stabbing (figurative and literal) “small” men and women.
Great looking scenic piece – can imagine seeing various villains thrown crashing through those railings by the Heroes!
although the interior of the pen is very clean – must be a conscientious farmer/herder!
Thanks, still learning 15mm and have noticed lots of things I need to add to that to make it better.
Like maybe poop, needs some rope around the gate to keep it closed etc etc.On the plus side those trees you sent arrived, just making a small section of scrub.
Cheers very much sir!You’re welcome, AB, although remember without photos it didn’t happen!
@ Glenn – agree – the shorter the man, the shorter the temper, and of course, ‘it doesn’t matter about the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of fight in the dog’……

Plasticard bases with clipped trunks and gunk added for texture…
In Conan land which races are black?
I thought Stygian, but looking at Google images it would seem not.

As a Hispanic and American Indian male rounding up to 5′ 5″ I would say while generally true, there are exceptions. 😇 😉😅😂🤣
Cool, cheers dudes.
So the trees arrived and me being me, and shiny plastic trees being shiny plastic trees:
BEFORE
AFTER
Nothing wrong really with them before painting and certainly not a masterpiece now they are painted.
But I feel they do look nicer, very useful too.
So useful I am going to stock them on the site!Coffee!!
So these Black Kingdom sorts, any of them sort of savage barbarian tribes?
I am planning on using the Copplestone Picts but with obsidian weapons rather than flint/jade whatever they are here:
We’re straying into some of the ethnocentrically stereotypical depictions and distinctly non-Politically Correct aspects of REH’s work here…… Certainly of its time
Indeed, and hopefully people know me well enough that I am not a racist arse.
The site is now semi live, the village has been uploaded and some products have been, but no buttons yet to buy.
If you could check it all works ok and report back it would be much appreciated!Hi, it is not meant to be, I have made some changes as you were typing this, let me know if it is better now?
Stoked for these – need to rustle up a few quid then I’ll be ordering a fair few. Site looks and works great!
Cheers and cheers!
Just thinking out loud.
Would anyone here consider buying resin rocks?Yes you could make them yourself.
But if you don’t have the time, materials, skills, inclination, desire to squash them by leaning on them.What about some cheap resin rocks?
Still a WIP as the bases with have some detailing added, but overall thoughts?
I couldn’t agree more – rocks…….Ho-hum, rocks with eldritch runic inscriptions……hell yes!
The markings don’t have to be super detailed – worn and weathered by aeons of Time and all that, but some detailing would make a lot of difference….. And if manacles came included, well who is I to complain?
Liking the idea of bones, rib cages of ancient beasties etc…….
Thanks though this surprised me.
Going by my 6mm rocks, which sell OK, I figured there would be a market for generic scatter terrain in plastic (tougher than foam you see 😀 ) which is unassuming enough that you can use lots of them over and over, where was a fancy pants rock would be a unique terrain piece and probably only able to be used once?
Yes, I was also debating doing my tomb in 15mm.
This of course would not be generic!😀
Right, off to ponder then.
Cheers folks.
