Ok, I admit it. I don't know old e new Glorantha's ( Runequest, HeroQuest ... ) worlds. ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glorantha ). So I never paid right attention to fan sites, resources, history and evolution of this gaming system. But there are many enthusiasts and productors who offer theirworks and keep definitely alive this system ( moondesignpublications.com/ ). Dario CORALLO is an italian artist, designer, well known, not only in this area. Today he, with Paolo Guccione, formed Alephtar Games ( www.alephtargames.com/index.php?lang=en ). His paper figures don't have back (  ) but, Imho, their images' style is very excellent. Some free ( but i think that all, or most, his sets are free ) sets are in: - "Dark City Games" downloads ( www.darkcitygames.com/downloads.php ) - "The Fantasy Trip" pieces ( www.thefantasytrip.org/pieces.php ) - In "Etyries" "Paper Wars - Heroes for Glorantha!" page ( www.etyries.com/dario/index.htm ) - In some free adventures for "Stupor Mundi" setting ( www.yourgamesnow.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1941 ) And in the web ( with an images' search on "Dario Corallo ).  |

O... really great job - check Orc's (From Fantasy Tripe's), Skeletons and Giants - simple yet stylish! And indeed, pity that there is no back - especially that with his art style and mostly front view/perspective it should be fairly easy... But... beware - some female characters (Dryad, Tribal Warrior) got breasts and... nipples!  Thanks for sharing! |

A new fantasy avatar ( pic ). Beautiful. Free avatars? ;D My avatar...err... "FREE"...?! Man, it sounds even worse than "CHEAP"! =>It's NOT free by all means... it's, it's... it is simply PRICELESS!!! (LOL - for me at least)  Bow (Bow= But+Now) seriously, it's taken from project code name "Dark Fantasy" (+suffix Heroes and/or Warriors - err... in fact you can add here everything which sounds appropriate and better than boring "inhabitants" or "citizens" . This particular one (avatar protoplast) is known as "Warden Of The Eternal Fire", or "Flame Warden" - both tittles, you should agree, sounds much better then Fireplace Officer...? It was planned (set, not fireplace!) as moderate collection of (max!) dozen figures for Cardboard Figures (60mm Paper Soldiers in other words). But then I started messing with it, adding some "Lizard Riders", "Flame Horses" with Skeleton Wizards (or Mages - I newer knew difference which ones are on Path of Light and which on Dark Side (forgot "of the Moon" in this case! and... well, eventually it ended as project in "endless progress" state... so, LOL, everything I got so far are spreaded unfinished sub-series (often even not thematically linked) and overall dozens of figures and couple of mish-mash collages as the linked one... Whatta waist of time and effort - good thing is that I can at least count fun on the bright side! Anyway, I would love to get back to it and, who knows, maybe even considering it as a challenge and reworked for 30mm - although not sure if this kind of "art" style will be good - it might be too dark or too detailed (or both from 3 feet "table top distance") when scaled down... The realistic approach might also turns for bad cause smaller scale sometime needs exaggeration, at least in some parts. Well, if it would be sound interest I might consider it both interesting and worthy to try... not mentioning the fun factor:) |

Yes. It can be, King.
But there are so many posts and so many links that I may have forgotten them. Sorry.

No need to be sorry. This is wonderful. I for one am very thankful for the sites that you find. I would never have known about the other two Dario sites if it wasn't for this thread.
Thanks
