[edit] Replacement

I have uploaded a new image, Image:Dungeons & Dragons Miniatures 2.jpg, that I believe is better. It has less glare from the flash and includes two stereotypical D&D creatures: a beholder and a red dragon.

[edit] Summary

A set of six miniature figures from the Dungeons & Dragons Miniatures Game photographed on top of a Chessex brand Battlemat. They illustrate the diversity of creatures in Dungeons & Dragons and the Dungeons & Dragons Miniatures Game.

The large humanoid figure in the back left is identified as a "Cloud Giant," figure 62/72 in the "Giants of Legend" (GoL) release. The large brown thing in the back left is a "Otyugh" (27/72 GoL). The four creatures in the front, from left to right, are "Valorous Prince" (10/60 Deathknell release), "Bugbear Footpad" (42/72 GoL), "Red Wyrmling" (58/72 GoL), and "Kobold Champion" (37/60 Aberrations release).

I took the photograph myself and am the sole copyright holder. I hereby license it under a Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 license. I also license it under the GNU Free Documentation License.

(I'm also the owner of the battlemat and figures, but I don't think that matters.)

The Chessex battlemat is just a grid, and is only a small sample. I can see no claim of copyright from Chessex. The figures themselves are copyrighted by Wizards of the Coast. These are, on suitable articles, fair use as they 1. illustrate game pieces (these are specifically intended to be used as game pieces in Dungeons & Dragons and the Dungeons & Dragons Miniatures Game.); 2. Have no reasonable impact on the market value of the figures (a 2-d image can not replicate the value of the original 3-d works). (I'm not sure if a fair use claim is necessary in this case, but I'm erring on the side of caution.)
