I have always had a hard time finding "good" werewolf miniatures. I've seen all of the versions produced out there and thought...meh! That is, until Blue Moon came out with a set. I really liked them, especially the big ferocious-looking one! I've finally finished painting up the pack. I hope you like them....
To continue my Halloween listenings/readings, I listened to Carmilla by J.S. Le Fanu. Available at Audible, it's a short one at only 3 hours, but as a classic vampire tale it's worth it! The narrator was good, and kept the story flowing. My favourite character was the General - I can't help but remember Peter Cushing in the role in The Vampire Lovers. As a result, I watched the movie a day after I finished it!
During a recent trip to the local Michaels I found something good in their Lemax Spooky Town collection. Usually every year there is something good out that I pick up from Lemax - this year is coffins!
I can't remember the price of these, but with one of the usual 40-50% off coupons you can't lose! I think they were already discounted 40% on the rack. Here's a comparison next to an Artizan Thrilling Tales 28mm miniature:
For all of October I will be listening to ghost/horror stories from Audible. Recently I finished listening to Ghost Stories of an Antiquary, which features stories by M.R. James. One of the main reasons why I picked this one to listen to on my commute (aside from the fact that it's M.R. JAMES!!!) is that most of the stories are read by one of my favourite narrators, David Timson. He really brings the characters to life with different voices and accents. Highly recommended for Halloween!!!
