This is a neat minis from Wiz Kids of Optimus Prime. I really think a lot of our tabletop miniatures games draw inspiration from some of those old cartoons from the ’80s. But it seems like only recently we’ve started taking the natural step and to gaming with miniatures of those old cartoon heroes (with ...

Here are a couple more Chibi Kingdom Death minis that I’ve created.This first one is a Watcher. For the watcher, I feel like black robes are pretty standard, even though the artwork for him was in brown and blue. Since I had previously made one for a client in black, I decided to do this ...
