Jody Siegel of Imbrian Arts recently previewed images of a very unique game accessory, a shamanic “summoning circle” that uses bones instead of dice to resolve game actions.
For more information visit the Imbrian Arts website or read Jody’s synopsis (and the ensuing discussion) of the circle’s development on the Dragon Painting forum.
UPDATE: Jody has uploaded a video to YouTube demonstrating how the circle works.

Imbrian Arts has recently recruited Sebastian Archer of Guild of Harmony, one of the most recognized talents in this hobby, to sculpt models for a new range of characters. To date Sebastian has sculpted a demonic eye and the first of four planned ghouls for Imbrian’s Damned faction.
You can follow the development of this range on the Imbrian Arts website, or the various forums they frequent, including WargamesAU, Frothers, OzPainters, and DragonPainting (to name a few).

I’ve just added a ton of links to several new companies (and some established companies I neglected to add earlier) to the appropriate section in the left column.
I should also note that due to the size of this list, I’ve decided to make a parent page with several subpages to make this easier to navigate and, above all, more useful for visitors.
I still can’t believe how many companies there are, especially those that appeared in just the last few years!
Here’s the list of what’s been added:
Recreational Conflict (Lead Bones)
Steel Crown Productions (Exodus Wars)

Mannikin Studios has just released two new models for their range of miniatures based on the artwork of Arthur Rackham, Grimm’s Cat and Father Christmas. From their website:
We’re delighted to announce that Grimm’s Cat and Father Christmas are now available to order. Father Christmas was originally intended to be released one month after Grimm’s Cat, but since the latter is late we’ve decided to make them available together.
Grimm’s Cat is based on artwork from Arthur Rackham’s illustrated edition of The Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm, and is the first of twelve models planned for our series of fae trees. The model is comprised of two parts, measures 32mm to the top of the cat’s head, and includes one round 40mm base. Grimm’s Cat was sculpted by Jody SIEGEL of Imbrian Arts.
Father Christmas is Rackham’s classic rendition of the holiday character, which originally appeared in Arthur Rackham’s Book of Pictures. The model is comprised of two parts, comes with two options for his sack (elves or presents), measures 35mm to the highest point, and includes one round 30mm base. Father Christmas was sculpted by David AYRAL of Anakron Miniatures Studio.
Both models were cast in an ultra fine resin of French vintage, are comprised of small delicate parts, are intended for advanced modelers, and require some modeling and assembly. They are priced at just $12.50 USD + $4.95 shipping worldwide.
There are only 40 casts of each model available for this release, but we’ll produce more based on demand.

I decided to post this for a few reasons. The individual photos of Jane and Rocky are a bit over exposed, and this gives you a better idea of what they look like in life. It’s also helpful to see how the models compare to one another in terms of size (to the tops of their heads, for example, the warbot is 64mm and Jane is 32mm). Finally, I just think they look great all together like this.
Be sure to click on the image to see a much larger photograph. And enjoy!
