I just put together a group of bards and dancers They're primarily for a fantasy game, but they can be used (with a little handwaving) in a medieval game. The miniatures are a mix of Wizkids (the Rusty Dragon Inn set), Reaper, and Grenadier. The entire troupe

Heh. I bought a couple of booster packs at my local FLGS; that's how I got my second dancing girl. I bought the bards at Miniature Market. The dwarf is pretty cool. I like the elf with the violin. I plan to do a review of the other Rusty Dragon Inn miniatures in the near future. |

Cool,thanks. Since you went there, I have to say that drummer immediately put me in mind of the big guy here: youtu.be/QlsQDR10Cx4 Later,apparently,things started to get a little weird: youtu.be/nqzRytdoniY I think your dancer is in there. Somebody needs to do that band in 28mm! |

I think I saw a couple of miniatures with bagpipes when I Googled "bard." Anyone interested in fantasy versions of Elvis songs?  |
