Who is your favourite sculptor of 28-30mm miniatures in the world at the moment?

I have the genestealer magus, some hybrids, a couple of those Imperial Army troopers that look like Buck Rogers and some of the old Blood Bowl Ogres. Also some dachshunds and mutant scrunt hunters from the new website.
Also I want to buy some of his classic Iron Claw squats on eBay, but they're bloody expensive..

My second fave is Mark Harrison, whose Primaris Psyker I've bought 2 of already.
Interestingly enough Mark Harrison nominated Jes Goodwin as his favourite sculptor in this months White Dwarf (a regular series now), and the model nominated was the metal Eldar Farseer (the current one, not the older one which I have somewhere). Obviously I didn't nominate Jes because this is a DE forum and the rest of you pointy-eared eldar fanboys will obviously nominate him...

Okay, since we all know that I'll nominate Goodwin, I'll go a step farther and say that my favorite model done by him (or, to be more precise, set of models) are the plastic Wyches, although the rest of the range is fantastic as well.

But did you like the old DE plastic warriors? Weren't they sculpted by Gary Morley, or something?

[The Black Jackal]

Yeah, I do like them, but they just don't compare to any of the new models. The old Warriors were one of the three best models, in my opinion, of the old range (the others are the Raider and Reaver Jetbikes).

I'm going to have to say Goodwin as well...

[empirespy]

I agree Goodwin is my favorite.

I'm surprised Brian Nelson and the Perry twins have had no mention yet. Anyway I love the Cadian and Catachan command squads, which were by the Perrys. Nelson sculpted many of my fave kits - the fantasy giant, cadian plastics, orks..

[Walrus]

Ahh, the perrys deserve some merit... I can barely remember any sculptors anymore....

Mark Copplestone is pretty famous in terms of historical miniatures. His ranges for 'Darkest Africa' for Wargames Foundry are pretty awesome. Everything from European explorers to native tribesmen in the 1850s-1900s..

This is his own website. I know a shop which sells some of his minis. In fact I need a couple of packs of his 'Hunter Aliens with guns', in the Future Wars section.

Perry twins also have their own company. They make their own plastic historical kits : reasonable prices too...
