Ultraforge Miniatures

Latest in my sort-of series of alternative fantasy models producers is:

Ultraforge Miniatures (http://www.ultraforgeminiatures.com/?p=1)

Some 40k players may be familiar with their daemons, and they work for Fantasy too, but the stand outs for me are the dragon:

And the treewoman:

Sadly I heard someone bought the company from the sculpting couple who started it so I'm not sure what has happened to them but by all accounts the business is still functioning so that is the main thing.

Painted Ultraforge dragon, shamelessly harvested from Sinz' abandoned DE plog on Warseer:

They use to be available locally and I got the giant and treewoman. They are very very nice models, its too bad they sold the company but at least they where successful enough that someone bought the company.

While some of their miniatures are out of stock, CoolMiniOrNot still lists most of the Ultraforge stuff in their store.

I am uncertain as to whether Out of Stock in this case means, "Never to be filled again". Usually though, CMoN takes down miniatures that it can't get new stock for.

Ultraforge have added their first new model in three years to their website:

They are promising more in 2013. Not sure if it is the original Ultraforge husband and wife team back or not, regardless it is still nice.
