Sleeping Dragon are a newcomer to Hereward, and we’re delighted to have them.

While there are plenty of miniatures companies plying their wares, and more than enough companies selling laser-cut MDF kits nowadays, there are very few places that a wargamer can get hold of decent quality modelling and scenic supplies – that still seems to be the province of model railways enthusiasts. Sleeping Dragon want to change that by bringing those products to the wargaming market, giving wargamers a place to fulfil all their scenic modelling needs.

A newcomer to Hereward and a local, Creative Painting and Models supply an ever expanding range of tabletop war gaming miniatures and scenery.

In addition, they are sculpting their own miniatures at the moment: Saxon, Vikings, 3rd & 4th Century, crusaders and some Fantasy. Check them out at Hereward!

A welcome back to Hereward for another year for Ironclad Miniatures, with a variety of ranges in 15mm, 20mm, and 28mm scales, including WWII terrain, Victorian Sci-Fi, Very British Civil War and more. Lots of original pieces you won’t see anywhere else.

Their models are supplied unpainted and some may require some assembly. All of the products are cast in either a high quality resin or whitemetal, providing excellent detail and requiring only the minimum of cleaning up and assembly. They can be painted with acrylic, enamel or oil paints as required.

They are continually adding to their existing ranges as well as bringing out new ranges so make sure to check their website regularly for the latest news.

The Pit Gaming Shop is a friendly gaming shop run by gamers and collectors for gamers and collectors. They provide a fast, efficient service with a wealth of knowledge, experience and excellent customer service.

The Pit sells all types of war gaming miniatures and games, role-playing games, modelling supplies, action figures, board games, card games, trading cards, books and comics plus many more geeky, nerdy, awesome toys and collectable things! For Hereward, they will be demoing some of Mantic Games newest games.

Our next trader should be familiar to many of you – it’s Sarissa Precision, purveyors of artistically burnt offerings in MDF in many useful and interesting shapes and scales, among other goodies 😀 (That means they make buildings and stuff, folks!)

This year, they’re also carrying our sponsor’s (Footsore Miniatures) products, and have promised to run a demo game for you all as well. Win win, in fact.

Continuing through our list of traders for 2019, we welcome Firepower Games who will be bringing a range of interesting products for your delectation and delight, including Dust 1947, Wings of Glory, By Fire and Sword, Battlefront Miniatures (Flames of War, Team Yankee, Nam & GF9), Hot & Dangerous, Anno Domini 1666 and Sails of Glory.

Our next trader is our Friendly Local Gaming Store, The Rift.

The Rift stock a wide range of miniature gaming products (including GW and Battlefront), as well as (lots of) boardgames, roleplaying games, CCGs, collectables and memorabilia. They’re another stalwart of Hereward, having been along to every show, as well as sponsoring a number of our show tournaments including this year’s X-Wing Tournament.

Newline Designs produce a wide range of detailed figures from Ancients through to ACW, in scales ranging from 10mm, 20mm, 1/72 and 28mm. This is their first time at Hereward, and we’re looking forward to checking out their ranges.

Scotia Grendel are another newcomer to Hereward (although club regulars may recognise at least one face behind the stall!).

They produce a large variety of quality metal and resin models and scenery in a number of scales for wargamers, miniature painters or collectors, from 1/300 micro armour to 28mm sci-fi and fantasy miniatures, vehicles, monsters and scenery. In addition they stock a number of other harder-to-get ranges of interest.

We’ve been trying to get these guys to the show for a couple of years now, and finally succeeded. Sphere Products do a wide range of hobby aids in laser cut MDF, such as paint stands, workstations, bottle holders, display stands and other things too numerous to mention, as well as stocking LifeColour and AK Interactive paints.
