Our story
Victrix is one of the largest hobby miniatures companies in the world with our products enjoyed by wargamers from over 100 different countries. Players, painters, collectors and modellers can be found across the globe/in every corner of the world. Whatever one you are, you are also part of this truly international community.
So, how did we get here?
The story of Victrix began over 25 years ago in London. Our founder, Julian Blakeney-Edwards started out by designing, creating and selling plastic miniatures from his home. Julian drew inspiration from his career as an officer in the British Army to create historical wargaming figures.
The Victrix one-man army soon expanded when Julian met Stephen Hales. Steve's background in art and video-game animation design was the missing piece in the Victrix formula, which now combined military history with digital design expertise.
Julian and Steve set out with a simple mission: to make highly detailed, historically accurate miniatures which allowed people around the globe to re-live history on their own terms.
After years of pop-up shops and attending wargaming events, Victrix established a home in the Lake District, England, where the whole family got involved!
Today, the Victrix community is in the tens of thousands. As a result, it’s fair to say we’ve outgrown our current premises. When walking through the office is like navigating your way through the minitours labyrinth, its time to move.
As of June, we will be moving into our new premises, embarking on the next chapter of our journey. Although a lot has changed over the years, we are still a family run business, and we are still dedicated to bringing you the highest quality miniatures.
It has been an incredible journey so far and we hope you will continue it with us.
