Vlad the Impaler sure cast up easy! I don’t have much experience with home casting 28mm figures, but this one didn’t even need any venting. There’s almost always problem areas – sword tips, hands – where air pockets block the flow of metal. Not in this, for whatever reason. It was a great cast the first time.
Almost as if… he wanted to be cast! Spooky!


After a little bit of cleanup, on to painting.


I’m planning a snow base for him, but more on that later. Next up are finding some opponents and allies, plus making some suitable terrain for skirmish games in 15th century Wallachia.
Came pretty well matey🤓

Thanks! I’ve got a listing on Ebay up now, it’s for Vlad plus the prisoner and two guards.

I’m (very slowly) working on more figures in this range.
