Hi all, don't know if any one has used these minis before? But picked up some of the villagers and think they really good for the game and found them easy to paint too as most of them wear simple clothing. If anyone is interested in seeing some of them then check out my blog as www.tabletophero.moonfruit.com
The only negative point I can make it that they have similar poses, but look just the job when I've mixed them in with other stuff I have.
More Bicorne bits to follow, so will keep you informed.
Happy hunting.

Very nice! I recall that Bicorne minis tend to be a bit on the large side, more 31-32mm than 28s. How do these compare with Warlord/Foundry etc for size?
On the GW paint side, the only thing I know is that Devlan Mud is now called Agrax Earthshade. Sorry.

Thanks.
Not sure about the name changes....I only buy paint when I'm empty and still have a stock of the mud wash color.
Not sure why a shade of orange would be called 'troll slayer orange'?

Because in the Warhammer world dwarves who are shamed dye their hair orange and go off to seek a heroic doom by fighting trolls and other monsters.

There is a colour conversion chart here:

You mean that they are just trying to give ginners a good name?

Thanks, Terry - that's great. I was trawling through eBob's website, and came across some Bicorne TYW heads, by the way. Look quite smart:

This might not be the correct place to post, but The Redoubt also does a range entitled "The Three Musketeers". It's a nice range, although the main characters are wearing those pinafore things that I can't remember the proper name of Anyway, the thing is that they have all sorts of other bits and pieces like civilians and a table laden with food and drink etc. All useful pieces for scenarios and the like.
