Hi All, I was wondering, are there any manufacturers that can be used to depict the Battles written about in those myths? Specifically the Kings and Heroes with the elaborate armour and of course the demons… though the latter might be easier as plenty people make those types. Thanks for any assistance…

Googling "Mahabaratta miniature figures" turns up some interesting things. I think though that you are looking at a lot of conversions. Maybe start with Early Bronze Age figures like those from Cutting Edge? |

I plan on doing some more but they are long term plans. We have the Mara out now. I would like to do Rakshasa and Haruman and I think somebody already does. The question with Rakshasa is whether you make them Tigermen or not? And if not, what form do you give them? |

@Madan Mitra: incredible idea! I've never seen any but it sounds like a great excuse to commission some unique figures. |

At some point my intent is to create a fantasy line for Indus miniatures. Ashok

Hi 'altfritz', I already have the Mara males from you (12 in total) and am eagerly awaiting the Daughters. As to the Rakashasa, my grandad described him to me a cross between Lion & Tiger & Man… so no biggy whichever direction you go in I'll take another 12… Hi 'Red Hoerring', I've been bitten by the SAGA bug BIGTIME. I just finished the Army of Maleficent (see disneys new trailer), also the 300 (from the 'that 300 film') and currently working on Persians also from that film. Hi Ashok, like your work a lot, my intention is create some rules for 2 factions using SAGA rules. 1 for the forces of Kali and the other for whomever she fought against. If I can finish it all in time (ie find the figures) I'll be putting on a game a Salute 2015. I reckon I got enough bad guys but just need the Heroes and Kings… Thanks Guys

Madan, I will be interested to see the Saga game. I have thought of the same thing myself. |

Will you be using chariots? A chariot could certainly work for a mounted Warlord character. I like Sergeant Major Miniatures.
