Demented Games have been quietly releasing a series of quality resin
miniatures for their upcoming skirmish level game, Twisted – A
Steampunk Miniatures Game. This will be coming to a Kickstarter near
you soon so keep an eye out! Currently available are a series of
limited edition releases to wet your appetite. I've had my eye on
them for some time, especially after seeing a variety of top painters
like Ben Komets do exceptional paintjobs on them. Their Black Friday
offer proved too tempting to resist so I have a bundle of new resin
to show you!
They all turned up in a bubble wrapped box from Australia, no damage
at all which is always a relief! Inside were five blister packs, on
the back a concept art and little blurb about the character. Also
included with each miniature is a numbered certificate of
authenticity signed by creator Sebastian Archer. Please note I've
included some pictures from their website below so you can see what
the assembled minis look like, along with my pictures of the
components.
Onto the minis! Up first is Launcelot, sculpted by Sebastian Archer.
A well dressed knight from the Servants of The Engine faction. This
sculpt is one of my favourites, lots of beautiful detail on the
clothes and opportunities for different textures.
Next we have Feygin, a gruesome looking character from The
Dickensians faction. He is sculpted again by Sebastian Archer. I love
the pose of him riding on a manhole cover carried by rats! Another
sculpt with amazing details in the clothing.
Nightingale, sculpted by Patrick Masson, is from the Servants of The
Engine faction. I love the filigree detail on the wings.
Gretel and Hansel (the lady and the monkey respectively!) are
sculpted by Sebastian Archer. They belong to the Servants of The
Engine faction. Once again a beautiful sculpt, the detail on the
corset, the mechanical gauntlets, the MONKEY! Love it!
Finally we have Dodger from The Dickensians by Patrick Masson. This
was the sculpt that helped me first discover Twisted. A wonderful
concept that has been perfectly translated to the sculpt. The pose is
energetic and I love the face on this one.
As you can see from the pictures these sculpts are very high quality,
some of the best resin I've seen. There is a few bits of flash and
some plugs to remove from bases but it's minimal stuff. I don't think
I can recommend these guys enough, check out their website (www.dementedgames.com) where you
can order the entire range and keep an eye out for the Kickstarter
coming soon.
They do have some awesome minis in the range - I've got Noveau, Launcelot and Nightingale already. Still need Gretel though, as I'm more into the clean and cold steampunk style of the Servants of the Engine than I am the crazy weird steampunk of the Dickensians.
