The new front end of our Web site is now live. I hope you enjoy this new look. This has been a very long time coming folks. The first step was getting the new store created and live. And now we have the new front end to our site live as well. Welcome to our new site!

Dark Sword Miniatures Inc. was founded over 11 years ago with the single purpose of creating extremely detailed gaming scale fantasy miniatures for both miniature collectors and gamers alike. We also have a small handful of 54mm pewter miniatures in our ranges as well. Fantastic realism is the best description of what Dark Sword Miniatures has become known for over the past 11 years as we approach 500 miniatures in our ranges.
Our pewter fantasy miniatures are in the newer heroic 28mm gaming scale which has become the industry standard over the past 10 years. In addition, we think you will be VERY pleased with the subject matter of our first four fantasy miniature lines which are based on the artwork of Larry Elmore , Keith Parkinson (RIP), Clyde Caldwell & Jeff Easley. All four artists have been gaming industry icons for the past 30 years now and their artwork needs no introduction.
In addition, Dark Sword Miniatures is
also producing premium pewter miniatures based on the works of
New York Times best selling author George R.R. Martin called A Song of Ice and Fire which is now also a hit series called Game of Thrones on HBO.
Dark Sword brings our miniatures to life in a style that can best be described as Fantastic Realism. To accomplish this, Dark Sword works with a very select core group of sculptors that includes: Tom Meier , Dennis Mize (RIP), Dave
Summers, Jeff Grace, Patrick Keith, and Jason Wiebe. Other wonderful guest sculptors will jump into the fray from time to time with a piece or two as well. We also have some of the very best miniature painters in the world painting up our studio display models for your inspiration and viewing pleasure. Marike Reimer, Jen Haley, Jessica Rich and Matt Verzani have painted up the bulk of the Dark Sword studio collection. Jumping in to lend a brush here and there when time permits are other award-winning miniature painters such as Susan Wachowski, Rhonda Bender, Alison Bailey, Michael Proctor, Aaron Lovejoy, Jen Kaufman and Zach Lanier.
Bookmark this Web site and come back often because we will be regularly updating these pages with new information and new pictures of our fantasy miniatures - both painted and of course in pewter. Take care and enjoy our multi-award winning pewter miniatures!
