Something a bit funky for a Friday evening. If you're looking for some 25mm paper miniatures to use in your skirmish wargames and roleplaying games, have a peek at Zhu Industries' Vlätkrig collection.

The Vlätkrig collection feature figures in paper form which are illustrated both front and back with pen and paper. They are then scanned in and turned into the digital offerings that you see here. If you're looking to do miniature gaming or roleplaying without having to deal with loads of plastic or metal figures, this might be the way to go.

For example, you have the Gnorf Wardens Of Legend above which would be brilliant options for those wanting to play as or indeed encounter Dwarf-like folk on the road. The illustrations are great and give off a great Oldhammer vibe.

If you're looking to come at things from the other side of the coin when you might want to fight with the Haemogoblin Konkerors who are ready to rampage across the land. Or, just keep their homelands safe.

Already, we're seeing a neat little narrative arising around this where those Gnorfs could end up going against the Haemogoblins on the tabletop! The miniatures themselves are produced in 25mm scale but you can go up or down depending on what you want to do with your printer and the games you're playing.

You also have some sneaky folk in the form of the Kobling Hudraeth here who are all blades and grinning shields as they come through the undergrowth and get ready to stab you in the back!

One of the newer sets is for the Vackreth Deorghast who are undead animals that have been wronged in life and now seek some revenge! These are based on endangered species from the British Isles that need to see their time in the sun once more!

All of the miniatures feature guidance on how to print them as well as how to them build the kits once you've got them in front of you. You'll need some scissors and perhaps a craft knife and of course some glue!

I like the idea of mounting some of the miniatures on bases as you can see here. I also love the variety of illustrations which have been turned into these paper miniatures. You've got a good set of three fun Fantasy warbands to play with already and then something very different in the Vackreth Deorghast.

Could you be tempted to pick up these printable paper miniatures from Zhu Industries?
