G'day all, welcome to my slow log showing progress for my 15mm Warhammer Quest project.
I've always been interested in Warhammer Quest, but just missed out on the chance to buy it as a teenager as it was removed from the shelves just after I'd saved enough cash for it (it had been on the shelves the month before I went to buy a copy). Now I'm older the bigest impediment to putting together a Warhammer Quest set is the amount of space I would need for both the playing table and the miniatures. Therefore I've decided to scale everything down to 15mm scale and magnetise it all, so that I have significantly reduced space requirements, and can pause and pack away mid-game without having to pack everything up.
Here I'm displaying all miniatures for the boxed set, plus a few additional, mostly sourced from Tonoborus's excellent 20mm resculpts, with a few downscaled scans from the ether. The tiles themselves are slightly larger than a direct 15mm rescale with the black removed. I found printing at 50ish% was too small, and I had to remove the black outline due to size limitations at the print shop I used; now that I have my own fancy printer I will continue with the scale and style, but can finally print larger tiles.
For a better depiction of the size difference, here is a comparison between the reduced scale with the original scale.
This is definitely a background project for me, but I've already progressed on printing all models required for the Level 1 monster list, and intend on printing all necessary models. For all other resources I've been sourcing from Littlemonk. Once I paint up enough miniatures (15mm is easier than 28mm in my opinion), I'll start playing some games and will post photos as I can.
