Otherworld DM2 – Giant Centipedes (4)

Sadly Otherworld Miniatures has closed for buisness last year 2024. However some miniatures have been bought up by Crocked Dice miniatures and Fenris Games. At time of writing, I don’t know who purchased these giant centipedes.

These 4 figures represent giant centipedes; nasty, venomous predators which are often found in dark ruins, ancient forests and the upper levels of forsaken dungeons.  They are all single-part castings which require no assembly.

The models were hand-sculpted by Kev Adams.  They are all around 30mm in length, cast in pewter, and are supplied with 25mm round plastic slotta-bases.



I just copied the same colour palette that was on Otherworld Miniatures website …

Fenris Games FGCM02 - Colossal Shoggoth

 Fenris Games FGCM02 - Colossal Shoggoth

This great shoggoth resin miniature from Fenris Games sat half painted on my shelf for a few years until I eventually finished it, a couple years back. Life and relocating my painting area to the box room upstairs prevented me from posting anything until now.

First picture of the Shoggoth is with a Copplestone female archaeologist, shown to give you an idea of the scale. Not sure, if she stands a chance against it with her puny revolver.



Second picture is again with a Copplestone miniature which he did for Grenadier miniatures back in the day. Wondering if this brave knight has a chance against it, this with a sword.



First time using Jon Hodgson’s backdrops book which is great & highly recommended.

Lord of the Rings ME72 Dead Men of Dunharrow

Repainted these 2 miniatures after my improvement in my painting skills in this century compared to the last century where it was predominantly just dry brushing. Happy how these turned out and just wonderful atmospheric characterful miniatures.

The Assault Group “Black Adder II” miniatures under the guise of their Renaissance English Tudor range as cunning courtier, manservant and Percy. I also added an English milita/border infantry longbow man to represent “Bob”. All miniatures sculpted by Mr Nick Collier.
