Looking For Minis
« on: November 13, 2010, 05:36:36 AM »
I have 4 players in my Dresden files game and need miniatures to represent them and I thought I'd see if anybody had seen anything useful. I don't want to turn the game into a tactical simulation like some games, but visual aids can help a lot.

I have a hydromancer boat mechanic. I need some sort of modern mechanic. I'm not sure about trying to include the magic portion. I was thinking just some sort of guy with a wrench.

I have a guy with wings; kind of like Angel from the X-Men. Doesn't use any weapons.
I was thinking of using this.

I also have a female alchemist shop owner who is fond of her shotgun. I liked this one.

Finally I have a female Buddhist changeling. To me this may be the hardest because I'm not sure how to do more than just a girl. She is slightly based off of Maenads from greek mythology.

You might check to see if anyone you know has an appropriate Star Wars Minis mini.  Maybe there's some mechanic in there that has some more modern looking clothes/tools.

There's a mini of Kemmler, if anyone is interested. It even predates the mention of Kemmler in the series. :)
