(Gnome Wars) In a world of Russian midgets

It's a month and a half dated, but I found these online:



At first glance, I was ridiculously hopeful. Is the guy from Olleys Armies here, now promoting a line of WWI Dwarves? Alas, outside of a possible gnome tank commander for a T-17, he doesn't have much these days. And more importantly, this is a different dude in England.


Plus, they're a little short. measuring 20mm to the eyes, whereas the Brigade British Marines I have in queue for painting today are 25. As the title suggests, if you prefer your Russians in the midget variety, these might be for you.


The one thing that does pique my interest is his next project: Cossack Cavalry.

    Hi Eric,

    Have known about these miniatures for a while and thought the same.

    Have you seen these:

    I can some great scenarios using these with either Gnomes or Teddy Bears.

    Cheers,

    Helen

    Helen,

    I don't know whether they belong as furry polynesians or the true enemy of Rome. Too primitive to fight anything else, except AT-STs.

    Yes I agree or pirates landing on a deserted island looking for a place to hide their booty.

    I was thinking of "The Mission" where you have the Seven Years Picnic looking to convert/conquer new lands.

    Cheers,

    Helen
