Accessorizing Your Toys (Part Two): WFB Alternative Models

Building on the outstanding article written by Andrew, here is a look at some companies that provide alternative fantasy models that fit well into the Warhammer Fantasy setting and are the appropriate scale:

Poland: Titan-forge
This company does some very cool alternative undead and ogre models that will fit well with GW models. One of the more interesting ranges offered by Titan Forge is their Drakskulls Menance line of undead orcs and goblins.

  

A personal favorite of mine, AoW offers an extensive range of fantasy models that are ideal for use as characters or unique models in a unit.  They have also begun to provide regiment sets with an incredible amount of detail and variety in each kit.




UK: Mantic
When you want to build a horde army cheap, Mantic is a good option to consider.  Not all of their model ranges fit well with the aesthetics of Warhammer Fantasy, but if that is not a concern for you, many of the traditional army types (elves, dwarves, undead, etc...) can be built for much less when compare with traditional GW models.


Italy: Gaspez Arts
While primarily a company for fantasy football miniatures, they do offer some great orc and undead model.  What I like in particular are some of the chaos dwarf models that they offer.  Great sculpts with a reasonable price tag.


As mentioned by Andrew, if you know of another great company to suggest, shot an email to one of us and we will add them to the next article.
