Ludvig Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Hey everyone, question of the utmost importance! What breed is the dog in McMournings starter (not the chihuahua obviously)? I have the old metal canines and I can easily identify them but the McMourning one isn't as easy for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old chubby metal one is obviously an english bulldog but the new one looks far to shaggy and long-furred to be one. The old metals are easily identified as english bulldog, pug, rottweiler and dobermann (at least I think so based on laymans knowledge of dogs). I guess it's just some mutt.

Myyrä Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Both the render and the art look an awful lot like a bulldog. The painted models often not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 I think I'm going to go with whatever the Tramp in Lady and the tramp is. Greyish will be different from the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bengt Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Now I'm confused, I thought we were talking about the dog in Body of Evidence? And the Tramp looks like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Hmm. I always thought of that one as bulldog as well. If you think he is too shaggy, remember he is rotting and likely moldy at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 @Bengt Can't fit it into any dog breeds I know and I figure the pattern from the Tramp will look good since I'll already have a bulldog. Meant I'll go with his colours, not that the sculpt was very similar to the tramp. This will be my bulldog. The thing from body of evidence will be a grey mutt.

Bengt Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Oh you meant just using the coat. Though I must say that the body of evidence model looks a lot like it's a redo of the one to the right in Canine Remains 1 (and the left looks like one in the plastic Canine Remains box).

Hound Grey Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Does look like a Bulldog, mot likely an English bulldog or possibly a Victorian or Dorset Old Tyme Bulldog, pretty much any of the Bulldog breeds with the (somewhat adorable) jowly frown. I do like the fact that the Malifaux dogs do tend to be a breed rather then then the usual 'generic dog' you tend to get in games. Now to convince Wyrd to do a Border Collie somehow, maeby as a miss model Miss Herd perhaps? XD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 I'm sitting with the models in front of me right now and they might be based off the same koncept but they look nothing like each other in the "flesh" so to speak. The head is all wrong, it might be some other variation of bulldog or the artist just took some liberties. I don't dislike the new one, it's just not similar at all. The new plastic 3 dog set I can't really stomach, they look nothing like any dog I've ever seen, two of them don't even have necks. One shares a pose with the old one but they seem to have gone more WH direwolf than trying to get them to look like dogs which I'm not a fan of. Went back and read my Tramp post, I didn't make it clear at all I only meant the coat Bengt so I can see how you were confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
