Ikvar Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Alright, so I am sure that Wyrd are more then aware of what people think about the miniature at this point, so please keep this tread clean of negative comments about the current Nekima model. This is in all its simplicity a thread to find a good proxy for our beloved demon woman, as I am having very bad luck at finding a proper figure that fits her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikvar Posted January 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 I dont know if I am just to desperate to use this model, but what about the female knight in this box, and then put some big wings on her under the cape? ^^ http://shop.kingdomdeath.com/collections/in-stock/products/warlords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnternalVoid Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Well another option would be the Reaper Miniature 72mm Sophie model. Huge Winged Woman with a huge sword. I have seen the model before and it was about twice as tall as a Space Marine it was placed next too. Think it is the 25 buck range. If you are willing to convert and give it horns to it and goat legs it would be closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trax Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 What about the original metal one? To frail or something? Because I've yet to see a more fitting model. The model is still in stock in multiple places in Germany and will surely deliver the stuff to Denmark as well, if that's what's holding you back. The two mentioned models don't look Neverborn-ish to me whatsoever, not even Malifaux-ish, that is, and would stick out in a bad way (in my eyes at least). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sybaris Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 as posted in the now locked thread: Nalach, Evil Shadow from Andrea miniatures (nsfw) can fit the bill if you look for a much darker style (and older in appearance). As stated above, Sophie the succubus is quite decent for size and looks...maybe a bit too "seductive" looking like the lilitu, but at the same time, Nekima is supposed to be beautiful in her own way, i guess (bloody beauty). Also depending on how you paint her, i think it can be a close match. She doesn't have cloven hooves but lilith doesn't, either. The original Nekima of course fits too if you have the skill/patience to build it. I didn't have to pin anything myself and it never broke while being one of the most used piece of our collection.

Jimbobovalsocks Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Nalach is an awesome model, I'd be tempted to go for her. You could also try: Freebooters 'tits out' deamon! http://www.freebooterminiatures.de/en/catalog/53 JMD succubus if you can find her (now out of print) http://chestofcolors.com/jmd-miniatures-succube-review/ Games Workshop's Valkia the Bloody is a nice model. http://www.games-workshop.com/en-IE/Valkia-the-Bloody Ultraforge's Pleasure Deamon is a beauty, but it's huge! http://www.ultraforgeminiatures.com/?page_id=51 Of course you've got Forge World's stunning Keeper of Secrets but it's massive and very expensive! http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer/Warhammer_Monsters/KEEPER-OF-SECRETS-GREATER-DAEMON-OF-SLAANESH.html Eurylia from Mierce miniatures - I love this one! http://www.mierce-miniatures.com/index.php?act=pro&pre=mrm_dkl_ysn_kys_wld_001_000 Anyway, a few there for you to look at! Reaper, as mentioned above do many different models that would be suitable for a Nekima proxy but I'm not a huge fan personally! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiralngCadavr Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Umm, the FW Keeper of Secrets is 7" tall and 3" foot-to-foot. While being a nice model, it's not really the right size... Same with the KD mini, which is just going to be marginally larger than a Malifaux human. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikvar Posted January 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Anyone know exactly how big this one is? http://www.freebooterminiatures.de/en/catalog/43 Is it a good size compared to Malifaux figures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trax Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 The miniature is a kit consisting of 7 parts and has an overall height of approx. 65mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnternalVoid Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 As it says the overall height is about 65mm I am guessing it is including the hilt of the sword sticking up in the air. So she is likely bigger than a man size Malifaux figure but might not be that much bigger overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikvar Posted January 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 How big was the old Nekima in comparison? Also found this one, could be nice just adding a big sword to her http://www.andreaeurope.com/en/7/girls/701/girls/687/g-035-harpy.html#!prettyPhoto When it says 80mm, would that be the height again. with the wings included?

Myyrä Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 When it says 80mm, would that be the height again. with the wings included?Because it's 1/22 scale, I would assume 80mm refer's to the scale and not the actual height of the model. 80mm would be the height of an average male. I would assume that harpy is somewhat taller if you count the wings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikvar Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 So again how would that compare to the old Nekima, would that model still fit in Malifaux? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trax Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 From bottom of the base to the highest point of the model (right wing), the metal Nekima is about 80mm tall, if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EntrepeNinja Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 I ended up doing a conversion. It's made up of Rayne Wissenchafte, I think is the character's name? And the wings off of a Mature Nephilim. They make up both 50%+ of the surface area, and mass, so they're techincally "505 wyrd model", so counts as conversion in my book. :3 ENinja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absolution Black Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Anyone know exactly how big this one is? http://www.freebooterminiatures.de/en/catalog/43 Is it a good size compared to Malifaux figures? I used this one as an alternative Mature Nephilim way back in 1e. Need to dig it out as it was a lovely model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might try and do something similar. Both of Wyrd's Nekimas are horrible models. I hate their "Heavy Metal"-feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiralngCadavr Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Man, Heavy Metal is hilarious (or maybe just ridiculous). Kinda' want a proxy wingless Nekima with a pterodactyl representing flight. Hmm, maybe I don't- would be distracted by Devo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
