For a perfect blend of customisability and affordability, it's hard to go past unpainted miniatures. Suitable for both player characters, bosses, or just hordes of creatures to litter the battlefield, there's a reason unpainted has been the preferred way of expanding your collection of heroes and battlefield fodder for decades of wargaming and tabletop roleplaying games.
How? Well, of many reasons, unpainted miniatures provide a consistent "look" without the need for complicated 3D modelling and fabrication, and yet offer enough customisability through paint choices for a unique end product that exemplifies all that you want them to be in your game. You don't just have a generic elven ranger, you have Belanor, Warden of the Silver Cloak Rangers. You don't just have a generic knight in full plate, but an order of knights hospitaller, complete in the raiment of their order. There's nothing generic about your unpainted minis when you bring them to life with your own painting hand.
