African Minis At crunch-Waffle

Hello all, just thought I'd mention the release of 2 more African minis at Crunch-Waffle Enterprises. Both Adisa, the Herbal Healer, and our Leopardskin Chief are currently available.

These minis look terrific and should work very well in a Nyambe game!

they do look pretty neat. Another good one is one my nephews gave me for Christmas (along with a big pack of others).... the Celestial Lion from Reaper Miniatures. This is one BIG critter that is perfect for a dire lion....

Hi guys,

Thought I'd share another mini we will be putting out ust as soon as we can get our grubby little paws on him. This is a Massai Warrior sculpted by Gael Goumon.

The really neat thing about this miniature, to me anyway, is the potential for freehand designwork on the cloth and shield. This guy should be nice and conlorful when he's done. He's going to be a lot of fun.

It's a handsome miniature. Many other African-themed miniatures are for pulp Africa campaigns and appear much less heroic or suitable for a Nyambe campaign. Some other ideas for miniatures could be Hausa Knight (news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/africa/1846748.stm), Gerewol Charm Dancer (decubitus.tripod.com/worldwide/worldwide.html under Niger), Ethiopian St. George (geo.ya.com/travelimages/ethiopia.html), and of course, Zulu Warrior.

Thank you for the material Nyamakalaw. We are hoping to put out a couple more in the reasonably near future as well as a couple monsters. I'll be basing them on general folklore and culture, but I do hope Nyambe players will be able to use our minis. We will definitely be doing a Zulu or 2 some time on down the road. This time I actually gave the sculptor a choice of a Massai or a Wodabe. I learned his choice when he showed me the pic I posted. I want to get several of these different warrior types into the line.
