Popular Post Nathan Caroland Posted February 22, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Fun piece coming across my desk. I think Curtis is going to enjoy applying some paint on this one. That is all ... 27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippodruid Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 That's just gorgeous. I love all the little details at the belt, and that texturing is amazing. I wasn't certain I was gonna pick this guy up as soon as he came out, but now I may have to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guslado Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Very cool to see something in its initial stages! Also, I don't play Ressers but I strongly feel the need to paint this model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice_cat Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Some models makes you want them even if you don't play their faction. This however I'm lucky to be playing! The wings are so gorgeous! The overall texture on the "bird" looks great Can't wait to own it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lusciousmccabe Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 I have to say I'm very impressed with how much the head alignment with the wings looks like an actual crow rather than a man with wings sticking out his back. Didn't get that from the renders and think it makes the model look much less generic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yool1981 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Still a very nice mini. I am really looking forward to seeing what Curtis will do with this one. As seen on the render, I am surprised the robe did not get more work (wearing and texture) while the feathers got so many details. It creates a small imbalance in the aesthetics. Was it due to technical constraints related to the injection moulding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobayashi Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Nice, but still no tattered robe ... D:? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absolution Black Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Yeah, the effect on the feathers etc is very good. But its a shame there is nothing similar on the robe, whether it be tattered or some kind of detailing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Math Mathonwy Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 I still like the head, I still like the wings, I still dislike the featureless robes. The wings are really nice, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solkan Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 As a Wyrd model, I think we're required to speculate concerning how many of those feathers are going to be separate pieces. I mean, I think we're looking at at least two pieces for right the wing, and some of those features have their ridges underneath other feathers... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeJones Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 That is a beautiful piece, and it makes me happy that I just committed to (that is, actually started assembling & painting models for) Ressers as my 2nd faction.

Rob Lo Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Love this model overall, would be getting it anyway if it was halfway decent but this is an easy buy. The robe I'm fine with, there are loads of tutorials out there on roughing up the texture in various ways (Tabletop Minions liquid greenstuff comes to mind right away) if you're looking for a rougher look, and I'd rather have to make it rough than have to make it smooth. The part I havent' decided if I'm liking or not is the belts with the small surgical equipment attached (somehow?) to the underside of the wing. It an interesting embellishment, I just can't help but wonder why those bits don't dangle downward with gravity. Can't be unseen and all that (sorry). I have a feeling that's grow on me as I look at it more, we'll see. One way or the other, box it up, take my money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniello_s Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Is that the new type of plastic or my eyes are decided to play tricks on me after long day at work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like its a 3D printed rapid prototype. Probably very different from the mass production in terms of material and assembly, but created from the same render. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wargames101 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Kudos to the concept artists and sculptors—No one does a better job with creating *dynamic* sculpts. Other lines are so static—these models pull the best practices from classical sculpture. Thanks for sharing! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moxypoo Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Man that thing is gorgeous. Too bad I don't play Ressurs. The detail on the feathers and tolls hanging from the belt is fantastic, and I'm excited to see how Curtis and the other great painters around here attack this model. I'm waiting for Nathan to troll us all and make every single feather a separate piece that has to be glued to the wing in a specific order; otherwise the feathers all pop off and you have to play with a bald crow.

Nathan Caroland Posted March 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Heh ... just might have to now. If I can only figure out how to have him with a surprised look on his face afterwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HtUnliving Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 What are you waiting for? Just take my moneys! ... Despite the rather meem-ish reaction, just loving the Emissary the more I see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagash1959 Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Really excited for all the Book 3 models. Any chance the Forgotten Marshal can be choking a Necropunk like Homer Simpson choking Bart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
