Last night Luis and I got on the topic of miniatures- we spent a few hours looking at these MasterMaze Dungeons and Dragons sets sold by Dwarven Forge. Dungeons and Dragons is not my thing, however, these sets are so amazingly elaborate I have trouble not being interested.
Seeing how fascinating this world of miniatures was, I clearly took to Etsy. Obviously. After some frustrated searching (I wanted to find beautiful hand painted pieces, instead I found a lot of dice necklaces. A lot.) I came across a vintage set, from Antique Renewal. It wasn't exactly what I wanted, but sometimes what you're looking for brings you to something else, right? Of course right. This set, with 131 vintage pieces, has a great style to it. I love the giant, is that a giant? I'll have to ask Luis.
I think what I love about this set is that you don't need to be a Dungeons and Dragons player to want to posses this crowd of misfits. Play them or don't play them, they'd look really cool on a shelf. Imagine a beautiful, breezy room with lace curtains and a pale yellow walls. And a natural wood shelf with 2 headed monsters, centaurs, and dwarfs on it. I love that juxtaposition!
