tidoco2222 Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I love the Minotaur that is right up my alley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincegamer Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Awesome! I love the females who haven't been to the surgeon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Love these!! The women actually have bodily proportions that look believable for fighting women! And the minotaur has very suitable bodily proportions as well! Gonna have to get these! :peace: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I like the girls, nicely done. Also the big guy, but what is with peoples addiction with the filigree!!! Sort of ruins it for me, has gotten too "gimicy" and just does not make sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Minotaur isn't quite my thing, just isn't working for me. The ladies are nice and yes, I agree they aren't hugely endowed (though I'm about to eat that considering one of the next ladies about to come out - heh).

Spacemunkie Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Hehehe! Another filligree hater All nicely done, but there's too many bits I don't like. Those girlies are nice, but the gauntlets really spoil the look of them for me. They look fat-handed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 ... and none of them have guns!! : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I agree about the gauntlet thing, it also doesn't help the the color change to white there makes the detail harder to see so that it just looks like they have fat hands.

vincegamer Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Don't know about fat, but the one with the sword over her head has an awfully long forarm. Still, these make my wishlist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gi6ers Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I like the girls, nicely done. Also the big guy, but what is with peoples addiction with the filigree!!! Sort of ruins it for me, has gotten too "gimicy" and just does not make sense to me. My thoughts exactly, I like the minotaur but the filigree ruins it for me.

tzor Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 OK I give up. Right girl's left hand. What's she holding? Looks nice. Would be an interesting set next to my set of Nubian warriors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 OK I give up. Right girl's left hand. What's she holding? Nothing. She's giving the universal "come-get-some" gesture. Which is kinda funny coming from a virgin. That minotaur looks awesome! Who cares about filigree, barbarians probably don't even make their own, just loot it off of all the paladins they kill. I just got the Barbarian Champion dude. He's awesome, now just gotta get one of that barbarian chick with the severed head for a matching set. *sigh* Must go sell my soul again! :thumb: :thumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Paladins wear minotaur sized gauntlets? :stupid: To me, it really just seems to be the sculptor now yelling "look what I can do, isn't that so neet and cool looking." And I'd rather the piece didn't have that editorial ego boost from the sculptor attached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I love painting filigree so the sculptor can boost his ego all he wants to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Yeah! I'm with Ritual on this one! :tongue1: Resin is pretty easy to file so you can file down the darn filigree if it bugs you so much. Filigree or no, my new barbarian is still pretty damn cool! @ Eric - Aren't you forgetting it's a fantasy world? Not all paladins have to necessarily be human or of a "normal" stature. :bootyshak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drake Farstrider Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 That minotaur is cool. To bad they are a pain to get here in the states. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 That minotaur is cool. To bad they are a pain to get here in the states. Drake, try going to Starplayer.fr . I placed an order with them on Monday the 13th and just got it today. That's pretty darn quick coming from France, imho. Good prices too! :tea: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art-de-Vivre Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 I like the minotaur : it is actually better done than the recent releases from Rackham (Minotaur of the plains and Drune minotaur) and would blend in perfectly in the Confrontation game. Also, the filigree has a distinct Rackham flair...did Illyad borrow some sculptors from Big R ? The virgins (what a name !) look alright but I wouldn't know where to place them : for historical games or dioramas, they could be Native American girls, since the haircut and loincloth would fit but the swords look out of place. For Fantasy gaming, they look too much like historical figures IMHO. Anyway, those resin figures are probably very expensive like the rest of their ranges, so they won't fit my budget... Cheers !

green stuff Posted February 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Also, the filigree has a distinct Rackham flair...did Illyad borrow some sculptors from Big R ? As far as I know : no. JAG is one of the founders of Ilyad and I don't think either he or Allan ever worked for Rackham. Allan does freelance and Rackham only takes inhouse sculptors.

Pr0fane Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Hmm...those girls - with some minor conversion that'd make sweet Necromunda Escher extras. Prolly too big for Juves though. I love 'em because they look the role of Berserkers. That minotaur - just awesome. Had the same effect on me as the first time I saw Rackham's amazing dual-sworded Minotaur. Only better. As for the filigree'd gauntlet...my first thought was that it was the breastplate of a slain foe that he just twisted round his wrist...pretty pretty.
