Well as you rightly say we should start seeing some Avatars of the masters soon (although this is still guess work it would seem logical). I am less inclined to clamour for alternate master sculpts but rather mini's which may need more use than the sculpts currently available. For example a different Teddy sculpt now that we may see many of them in a Dreamer crew. Pretty sure guild players have also mentioned that a few extra guild guard would be good. I'm generally happy with the level of sculpts put out by wyrd and it could be a lot worst. I have just bought a 10 man Zealot squad for WM Menoth, for the 9 grunts there are only 2 sculpts, 6 of one and 3 of another.

Also agree. I also wouldn't always sacrifice the numbers for the stones as it gives the opponent all important activations in hand.

Neverborn and Ressers duking it out for the win for me. Neverborn have it by 1 master at the moment.

4 Book 1's and 2 Book 2's. Only limited by funds and the knowledge that I only regularly play with 2 of them so far.

I am confident he is meant to be on a 40mm base and the card was a mis-print (Next LE miniature anyone, an arcanist propoganda print worker?). Also quite sure this has been discussed, had a quick look around the rules discussion for you but couldn't spot it. Pretty sure someone will be able to direct you to the confirmation shortly

Love the gunslinger and his wee hat.

It will be very interesting to see whats in the box for this one, given that many of us would seem to have the Nightmare LCB.

Thanks guys, I do agree about the ending. It was really supposed to be the first meeting in a columbo-esqe investigation, kind of putting her on warning but the ending did not feel right and was a struggle. I do think there will be more from the investigator though. Starting to form a full length story.

A very impressive piece of work.

Can you bring out bete from saccing? Can't reach my book to check. Sounds good to me and I'd0 like it more if it could bring the black dame into play.

That is some impressive details you have managed to get there. The facial expression of Seamus, the Nurse's fishnets and bubbles in the syringe are all quite fantastic.

It may be too late to draw me back in. I still have my Wych cult of space marine death and I will definately be buying the codex upon release though. It would have to be pretty special to draw me away from Malifaux, and to a lesser extent Warmachine, now.

Well, it seems like a lot of us here have deserted GW - at least partially - but as a Dark Eldar player of very many years, I felt it worth posting this in case anyone else was interested. http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/blogPost.jsp?aId=12800005a

Really like all of what you have done. Wouldn't mind seeing a shot of Lady J from the back. There have been a few nice Lady J's here recently.

Absolutely stunning work. Very much like your style. Lady J gets my vote.

Very nice work indeed. I may be another to steal your hair recipe.

Really like your Pere Ravage. He has a bit of Elvis to him.

I like that the story is told from the point of view of one of the Malifaux dispossessed. I felt the first half was stronger. I think it was that you managed to portray the urgency and fear well.

Really enjoying this so far. Can't wait for the next instalment. The conceit of the smart gremlin is so simple but so smart at the same time.

Hello all. Given the very high standard of painting on this site, there seems little I can input on that front and with that in mind I decided to write a short story. Decided is probably not sufficient. Waking up in a cold sweat compelled to write about the first meeting of two such gargantuan characters would probably be more apt. :hmmmm: Given this is the first piece of fiction I will have written since about primary school, comments and criticism will be gratefully received. I have a thick skin. Hope you enjoy, as I already have ideas for a good few other stories in which the character, which I will at this point simply call the investigator, could and would appear in. -------------------------------------------------------- A World of Truth The music had faded, the song ended, and all that could be heard were the sounds of ballgowns traversing the dancefloor. She loosened her grip from her dancing partner, but knew it would be mere moments before she would have to deter further advances from the enthusiastic young guild officers. They swarmed her as the insects of the swamps swarmed the funny little green creatures. She could hear the hushed whispers in the room as clear as the voice to her left imploring her for one more dance. She ignored him, and soaked in all of the ill feeling emanating from the rouged debutantes, grotesquely trussed up as if one of Collodi's dolls. They knew not the object of their hatred. His eyes had been upon her for some time but she could detect no hatred, lust, or even fascination. She turned scanning the room for the source of her disquiet. Her eyes passed the stage where the 8 piece band were preparing to start the next worthless ditty. Candles flickered in the corner booths where more senior guilders had taken claim of any women socially - or financially - motivated enough to join them. Eventually her gaze fell upon the buffet table with its array of breads, sweetmeats, and guady cakes. She had no time for human food, it did not provide the sticky sweet flavour she craved. Their eyes met. He raised his hand in greeting and a wicked smile crept slowly accross her face. This was who had been assigned to investigate the death of her latest victim. She had been concerned, since allowing her young student the opportunity to breach the officer's residences, that the blood of the pious and arrogant that had spilled that day would result in the probing of the damned Ortegas, or at the very least some high ranking official, but no. It was clear from his crumpled appearance and lop-sided smile that their victim had not been highly thought off among the judicious heirarchy. She took him to be no more than a lieutenant and with the smile remaining on her face she crossed the floor towards him. "Good evening ma'am." "Good evening. I assume you are not here for the festivities, perhaps it is the food that has brought you here?" "Oh no ma'am, too rich for my digestion. I'm a simple man at heart, at least that's what my wife always tells me. Give me a bowl of chilli and crackers and i'm happy." "Your wife? Is she here?" "Oh no ma'am she is looking after her Aunt who seems to have caught this illness that has been spreading recently." "Well either way, I don't believe we have been formally introduced. I'm.." "Oh I know who you are ma'am" he interjected. She knew it to be true, but despite the nervousness of his demeanour she felt that fear formed no part of it. For the first time that evening she wanted to laugh. "Walk with me lieutenant" She set off across the room towards the balcony where the stairwell entered the room. He shuffled behind her nervously. Concerned that the rapidly moving couples on the dancefloor would knock or trip him. Despite his fears it seemed that time and movement seemed to obey the will of the beautiful woman beside him and they made it through the high arching glass doors to the balcony with ease. "So what would you wish to discuss lieutenant?" "You may have heard of the death of Officer Reynolds ma'am?" "I am aware of it" "Well after some investigation we captured a young nephilim. Some of my more persuasive colleagues have stated that he has implicated someone of your description as being the commissioner of the crime." "Oh come now, look around you lieutenant, how many woman here meet the same description? Or it could of course be that the nephilim is simply trying to implicate anyone but himself in an effort to minimise the pain he will feel when he leaves this world." "That's certainly a possibility ma'am, in fact that makes perfect sense of course." He turned and made his way towards the top step. Just as he reached it he turned." "Just one last thing ma'am, I notice two of your fingernails are broken, can I ask how that happened?" "Certainly lieutenant" she replied as she raised her left hand for inspection, "coach door caught them on my way here. A very clumsy footman." "I thought it must be something like that ma'am." He turned again to leave. "lieutenant" she called after him. He turned to face her once again. "You say you know me. If that is true, then you must know of the magick and motivations that form this world of ours. Look around you. You see all of these wretches as well as I. Eeking out their existance, seeking to form empires of stones and sins. There should be more - or indeed less - to this world of ours." "That may be ma'am, but they may keep their empires. That is not the world I seek." With that he turned and descended the staircase. She looked over her shoulder at the ballroom and suddenly felt very bored with the evenings frivoloties. -------------------------------------------------------- So there it is, my first effort. A bit far fetched I know. I don't imagine Lilith would go anywhere with cracked fingernails. Hope you enjoyed. If so let me know as I have an idea for a full length story starring the investigator. If not, you had best let me know too, as I would likely post the story and end up cluttering up the place. Thanks very much if you made it all the way down here.

I spotted that train on another website but i'm never sure on scales. It is very nice indeed. If as you say the scale is right I may have to remember it for after Terraclips are released.

Signature sizes thread about 6 down from this explains all.

I don't know if you could hand pick anyone more likely to completely demolish everything that was good about Paprika. Not unless he goe back to Das Boot form and I don't see that happening after so many years.

Which could of course lead nicely down to the sewers...
