> links <

This section of the site contains links to sites I personally like. So I'm not going to try to create a long list of all miniature manufacturer sites. No, the links that you see here are chosen by me, for the simple reason I like that manufacturer or artist.

If you want to trade links: mail me at corvus@advalvas.be. Here's my banner:

I have divided the links in a few categories:

  • general miniatures contains links to sites that have a gallery, forum, articles,... so anything miniatures in general
  • painters contains links to sites like mine, enthusiasts that have set up their own web site with a gallery, bio and sometimes information on their painting service
  • the manufacturers section contains links to sites of miniature manufacturers I like
  • gaming related websites provide you with information on specific games: tactics, army lists, etc
  • other... well, anything else fits in this category :)

general miniatures


This site has had a big impact on my painting... I not only learned new techniques because of the articles on the site, but it also introduced me to the online miniature painting community. Basically this site offers you the opportunity to upload pictures of your painted miniatures and let other people vote for them (my gallery can be found here for example). This site has much more to offer however: articles, painting competitions,... I'm also a regular on their forums. My ranking on the site is .


Electric Ocean is rapidly becoming one of the most important miniature sites on the net, with loads of news and a handy calendar.


A French site that has a lot to offer for the miniature painting enthusiast. They have a very good collection of articles on painting, sculpting and scenery.

Terragenenisis
A very good source of information if you're into creating scenery for your wargames.

painters

_http://www.jenova.dk
This is the homepage of one of my favorite painters: Jenova from Denmark. She paints all kinds of minis, but is specialized in female figures. In my opinion her I-Kore paintjobs are the best out there.


This site is maintained by Jarret Lee, a guy from Canada who has won multiple Golden Demon awards. Recently he started working on some Confrontation minis, which I like a lot!


A very talented group of painters from Europe, they are also very good at conversion work. The site looks great and has very much to offer.


Take a look at Sascha's prize winning paintjobs and conversions. This is one of the best (if not THE best) painters from Europe.


A great painter from Poland.

This site from the German painter Dirk Stiller contains some fantastic galleries.


This site is run by Zaphod and contains a lot of information on different subjects. You definitely have got to check out his "Crappy mini or not" gallery, it's hilarious!


Good looking site, and even better minis! Be sure to check out the gallery of Reaper figs!


Very distinct collection of miniatures. The Tau army shown there has a great colorscheme.

manufacturers

Rackham
Currently this French company has only one game: Confrontation, but they are planning a sci-fi game for 2004. In my opinion their miniatures are the best around, very detailed and dynamic. The game itself is great, but the miniatures are also very wanted among painters and collectors.

Games Workshop
This company is the most famous war-games producer around. They have a wide range of games and tens of armies to collect.

Reaper
Also very good miniatures here, and the site contains a lot of extra information.

I-Kore
Haven't painted one of these yet, but I really like their Celtos miniature line.

Dark Sword Miniatures
This is a new miniature company that produce boxed sets based on Larry Elmore's fantasy artwork.
