Mario the Miner - Citadel Dwarf Engineer (1991)



There's something funny about this Dwarf, specifically the way he's cupping his hand to call. It's a 1991 Perry Dwarf, so it's naturally wonderful, even if the flame of the candle on top of his head is gone (a single fall from the painting table was - sadly - enough).



For some reason, he reminds me of this Italian actor, legendary Mario Brega, who could (and should) have played a Dwarf at some point in his career.



I believe the words to describe him are loud and cantankerous, which fit perfectly the character of Dwarfs. 


The miniature is armoured in leather apron and head cover, with a helmet and a mail shirt. He carries a large hammer, more a tool than a weapon, and a short sword. His bag of money hangs from the belt, of course.

"We don't want to buy anything! One more step and Kurt, here, is going to shoot your hats off!"

  1. Perfectly done! I love these dwarves... Mario's friend Kurt has more than a whiff of the wild west about him, though
