This blog is mainly a place where I can record my current interests. It is also a place where I can showcase my current projects, obtain inspiration, keep track of suppliers, and the many other little things that make-up who I am and what I am presently about.


This is set number five of four random plastic game miniatures. These miniatures must be cast out of plastic, and must be from some game type of game. RPG's and boardgames have been my main source of miniatures for these posts.
The three hard plastic Trolls stand 30mm and are from the Norse collection of figures included in the Age of Mythology board game. Trolls are from Scandinavian and Nordic tradition and mythology. Trolls are very large creatures and stand between 8 to 10 feet tall. Although not very intelligent they are unscrupulous when it comes to something they want and have no problem, taking, stealing, fighting, or shedding blood for what they desire.
This is my forth set of four random plastic game miniatures.

From left to right
Cyclops: a one eyed giant; Medusa: a winged human female with a hideous face and living venomous snakes instead of hair; Minotaur: had a head of a bull and body of a human; Manticore: body of red lion with a human head, shark like teeth, and bat-like wings; Centaur: upper body of a human and the lower, the body of a horse; Hydra: hugh creature with multiple snake like heads.
From left to right
Nidhogg: Dragon; Frost Giant: Very large humanoid creature; Dwarf: Short stocky creature; Troll: Live in isolated locations and are usually antagonistic to humans; Valkyrie: female figure who chooses who will live or die during battle. (Don’t spurn this one)
I don’t know how these soft plastic castings will take to paint, but I am going to give one of the Trolls and Frost Giants a try.
My Age of Mythology game pieces arrived the other day from Eagle Games and I have plenty to report on my newly acquired miniatures. I thought I would start out with the basics. There are three fractions included in the game, including Egypt, Greek, and Norse combatants.
Listed below are the colors I chose followed by the colors that are available for each one of plastic sprue.
Egypt Pieces [Color:Brown], Dark Brown
Greek Pieces [Color:Light Green]. Green
Norse Pieces [Color:Medium Blue], Dark Blue, Light Blue
There are roughly 145 parts on the three plastic runners. I have included a link to a Plastic Soldier review of each set.
