Do you have a favorite miniature?

Mine is the 15mm ancient German clubman from Miniature Figurines.

Over the years I have painted several clubmen for various armies.

They fight side by side with other german or with celtic warriors. Another one has joined a band of stone age hunters. Brothers of him has joined peasants upraising in fifth century Gaul and Medieval Germany. One clubman was even hired by late Medieval pirates

Thanks for your interest.

a Derkriegspieler dwarf axeman my first figure

For all their limitations, some figures just have the character you're looking for …

Unfashionable perhaps, these 15mm Byzantine cavalry by Irregular …

… just tick the box.

(the upright ones – and yes, I did replace the lance shafts) …

There are so many …

Perhaps the Foundry Vikings.

Since nobody else has stepped up yet, RalPartha British colonial rifleman. It could well be the most numerous single figures in my collection.

The dude in my icon.

After that, I really like my Copplestone "Horse Tribe" 10mm cavalry units.

Mike's Models 15mm renaissance range specifically the reiter cavalry and Pendraken's 10mm Late Roman range specifically the clibianari.

Those 10mm Copplestone Horse Tribe figures are valued barbarian auxilliaries in several of my ancient and medieval armies.

My favorite are the 40mm Trident French and Indian War Highlanders plus their Indians.

Hlaven12 Jun 2021 11:59 a.m. PST

28mm to 32mm Vikings,Saxons,villagers. Especially from Victrix and resin prints from Asgard Rising Miniatures. The design and detail of the resin ones are the best; but very easily broken. So not the best for gaming. Just beautiful though.

@OFM, I agree with your choice of figures. The Firing Line Continental cavalry are beautiful. I have 3 units of 16 that I need to paint. I just never found the time. Even raw castings, they are my favorites.

dBerczerk12 Jun 2021 6:48 p.m. PST

My favorite: the 25mm MINIFIG French Napoleonic Imperial Guard Grenadier in the "march attack" pose.

HansPeterB12 Jun 2021 9:24 p.m. PST

This is tough, but if I had to pick one it would be Duke Seifried's Mean and Wicked Hareds.

cavcrazy13 Jun 2021 5:43 a.m. PST

Can I change my vote?
I don't know if they were actual gaming figures but, there used to be a company called Bugle & Guidon and they made Little Bighorn figures. Those figures are works of art.

I've spent quite a bit of time on this and am not sure I can come to a final decision. I was going to make a short list but it was too long.

So, the Historical Products Company Assault Guard. Solid sculpting and casting and for me evokes the period.
