LunarSol Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Small, simple, well done model. My only issue is that I sort of feel like Dismounted McCabe better fits his concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hagisman Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 I've got a McCabe saber arm I want to give him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunarSol Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 It's more the pose of sadistically whipping something I think fits him well, not the weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trikk Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 I like the model! I painted it and tried it today in 3 games. Definitely one of the better models in Guild and a cheap Promises carrier! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Thanks for keeping up the unboxings! I'm definetly getting this guy. Too bad he doesn't come with promises for the poor fools who haven't realized the beauty of McCabe (although I prefer the suppossedly lower cost without it on account of being a firm believer of the gospel of the black sheep) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolution Black Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 I was waiting for the final model. I still find it bland to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Bear Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 Hm, I think I like some of the TTB Male kit proxies better, but I can still see myself picking this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had the TTB kit I wouldn't mind proxying from it. Abs: how to solve the bland? I could sculpt on a bulge in his pants and paint him like Bowie from Labyrinth had a haircut with some glittery eyeshadow. A Freddy Mercury moustasche might liven up the sculpt too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My beef is basically that Lucius doesn't have a free upgrade that makes Freikorps trappers count as having the guardsman characteristic and being native to guild instead of mercs. I'd even be prepared to pay a stone for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomezilla Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 This mini will make an excellent base for Raethford from Crossroads also.

Queeg has a nasty little pencil-thin mustache, yes, that needs to be painted on. As for the...style cues from the New Romantic movement, if you're going to glitter up Queeg I insist you bring Sonnia along. That jacket of hers, the cut of it may as well have been lifted from an Adam and the Ants video shoot. (I shall continue to live vicariously through this paint job until I learn to paint charvet.)

Just googled Adam and the ants and whoah! Sonnia and the dapper handler could rock that look like no tomorrow. The witchlings could have some sort of rainbow thing going on perhaps.

Bengt Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 He reminds me of a cartoony lion tamer, even though he really should have a chair instead of a pistol. But I guess one could fix that if one were to play Guild... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you could sculpt little (obviously fake) manes on all your guild hounds to complete the imagery of a massively delusional lion tamer! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the kneeling Guild Rifleman (I sit him on the "Secret Assets" card) to signify the hidden sniper. Since I'm usually using the other two along with Dashel & a Guardian, I had a spare Rifleman. I hate to paint a model and not use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoriangirl Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Have one this today and open my own box. I like it very much. I'v paint my Black Sheep box (except dismounted McCabe) and will paint them both at the same time may be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
