1. Hetz, the rude imp - by Dave Leigh

This imp is sculpted in protest at all the 'cutesy' cherub sculptures you see decorating ornamantal ponds and fountains all over the world.

The intention of this sculpt is not meant to be offensive, but rather a display of cheeky, adult humour.

He stands at 20mm from the sole of his feet, up to his eyes.

2. Redcap goblin - by Snuurg

A Redcap, goblin who chucks boulders at folks' noggins...

3. 'Newton', custodian of all things lost and shiny - by Kev "Hasslefriesian" White

4. The Travelling Court of the Brownie King - by Michael Thorp

The denizens of Fairyland vary hugely in size, from the mountainous Storm Giants down to the tiniest of fairies. One of the smallest of these races are the diminutive and mischievous Brownies, or Brunaidh. These spiteful little creatures are strongly linked to the residence to which they are bound, and they can never stray far. After missing out on one too many parties a particularly enterprising Brownie King came up with his own solution...

5. Over Weight Elf Chef - by Steve P. of Fantization Miniatures

He's about 32mm roughly and very comparable in size to any Reaper figure.

6. The Hanger Gnome - by Tony "Nym" Robillard

7. Peach - by Ming-Hua "Minimaker" Kao

There isn't that much like a Brownie in Chinese legends and the dwarfs from this pic are closest I could find. So I made one of the little people and two foo lion cubs helping themselves on a few imperial peaches.

It is at this moment three parts and free standing (so it can be glued on any type of diorama thingy like a box or a table).

8. McGee the Brownie - by Ming-Hua "Minimaker" Kao

McGee the Brownie. Ever since he found that book he is famous for his haggis. Pixies don't seem to like it though as you see fewer and fewer of them around him. What was the title again? Fairymeat?

Not too clear in the pic but he's holding a bound-up pixie in one hand and drags a cage with his hunting goblin in the other.

9. Goblin cook and cleaner - by SylvainQuirion

Obviously those 2 figures are a shameless tribute to some of the juges in a deseperate attempt to attract some attention. They are respectivly 17 and 19 to the eyes (19 and 20 overall).

A lso you can see on some pics the 2 figures can make a little diorama (even though that wasn't something I had in mind when I started but I like improvisation).

10. The Wild Hound - by Herr Sven

The Wild Hound is an absurd animal.
As a feared member of the Wild Hunt this fairy dog bears several terrible names: the flying Beagle, Flint, the Pegadog, or just the Wild Hound.
He is a cunning predator. When you look into his disturbing face you are done....

11. The Flying Gnome - by Brad "fps" Shier

Sven, a gnome inventor, got tired of all those fancypants fairies flying around and giggling at him so he decided to beat them at their own game and create wings of his own. His creation is a Rocket Fairy Glider, powered by 120 proof shroomjuice. The other gnomes laughed at him, but who's laughing now as he's zipping by giving them the finger? Sven, of course as he chases those pesky fairies down!
