FAQ
What size are your miniatures?
What material are your miniatures made of?
Do you include bases?
Our miniatures are scaled for 28mm gameplay.
This means that they are approximately 30-32mm to the top of their head if they were standing up straight. Some science fiction-based miniatures will be larger due to the armor or technology.
​
We design and sculpt our miniatures in realistic proportions. This means we use actual proportions as they should be for head, hand, and limb sizes. All of our weapons and equipment are properly scaled to their real life counterparts. Many other companies exaggerate hands and heads providing cartoony or "heroic" looking models. We forgo these methods and provide only the most accurate detail possible.
We 3d print or resin cast ALL of our miniatures in a hard resin for several reasons.
Using extremely high accuracy 3d printers we can offer not only an easily customizable material but also ship our customers what is essentially a "Master" of each model. We outsource to a specialty printing company that utilizes professional grade printers to ensure the highest accuracy and detail on the market rather than batch cast in poor quality metals that progressively lose detail cast after cast.
​
3d printing also allows us to create models that would usually be impossible to cast. With details that may overhang being simply printed on the model instead of separate fiddly and hard to glue together pieces.
It also lowers the numbers of parts, cleanup, and packing required per model.
​
Our 3d prints are more detailed, easier to assemble, and cleaner than any other method.
All orders come with appropriate numbers of bases.
