Ratty Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I actually wonder if the model was actually finished, it looks like it's half way through painting. Remember when Pandy originally went up she wasn't there, but was added when people said they wanted to know what she looked like. If you look at the clothes they are just different shades of grey, the face has no definition. The hair looks like mine does before I've added the final highlight and toned it down.

Q'iq'el Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 (edited) This is an extremely bad picture. For all we know, she may be a stunning beauty under this pixeloza. Nothing sure can be said, based on the picture, but if it is a Candy having grown up to be a teenager in a Japanese style Sailor, then I'm loving it to no end. It'd be the evil-lolita spin on the model and I think it suits her fluff perfectly, while making the theme only slightly more adult. (After all it's been mentioned in the older fluff the original Candy preys on the men looking for her company, hasn't it?).

thetang22 Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I know that Wyrd's quality can vary quite a bit in the range....but that doesn't even look like a Wyrd model....that looks like a model from a VERY amateur company trying to make it into the hobby. Pixelation aside...it just looks uninspired, has no dynamic quality, and is just plain boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omenbringer Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 The model isn't as bad as the camera phone picture thru the glass makes it appear. Also she isn't hunched over as much as she appears, it is an awkward camera angle due to the depth Candy was in the case. I'll see if I can get a up close and personnal photo of here tomorrow. @Ratty- I am pretty sure it is done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that the paint job is lacking, which doesn't help matters. This is an extremely bad picture. For all we know, she may be a stunning beauty under this pixeloza. No candy for Candy? And the stance blows chunks no matter how you slice it.

That pic is from the store. Glad to hear the picture being bad might also be a contributor. I look forward to more favourable photos...

Rathnard Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 She doesn't look very good, but she's also very pixelated too so I'm not passing judgement on Candora until I see a real pic of her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yazza Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 i do have to agree the pose is weird, maybe a giant piece of candy needs to be attached? otherwise i think we wil see a lot of alternate cadies popping up on tabletops everywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q'iq'el Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I'm almost worried if I should say that, but not all is candy that is wrapped. This is the jail-bait Candy and in Malifaux that means a dinner date with hungry Tots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigkid Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I don't think any amount of 'camera angles' or 'blurring' can disguise the fact that it sucks. The pose is ridiculous (it looks like someone stole her horse...) and the paint scheme is beyond bland. Maybe it was a conscious decision to make it rubbish so that the Pandora Avatar looks better by comparison?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T3tsuya Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Gentlemen, Through great personal effort, time, and dedication. I have come to an extremely elegant and affordable solution that can help all of us in this time of need. I feel my improvements might warrant an entire resculpt. But until then. I will be selling these "Model enhancers" in resin for $20 a piece. I think you will find the price is fair. SEE HOW THE HIGH-QUALITY PAPER CARESSES THE HEAD AND HIDES BLEMISHES. In all seriousness. I agree, I dont really know what they were thinking with this one. I want the Pandora avatar too much to not get it, so the price is right. Comes right with it. Guess we'll have to cross our fingers and hope this picture was taken through an "ELDRICH HORROR" filter. Otherwise we all make a gentlemen's agreement to pretend old Candy stands in just fine for new Candy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatnicguy Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I can't remember where i saw it but i read something that said that the dead lady j box all counts as other models, I think it's in the maelstrom preview bit, death marshal A counts as drowned dead death marshal B counts as samurai punk zombie etc, it had lady j counts as dead doxy? At the time I assumed this would be a new resser master but with the spoilers it seems like she'l be a belle and not a master at all!? I think people are gonna be pissed if that's the case? That box sure looks like a crew box, can anyone confirm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see why people would get pissed for getting BOTH a full guild started AND 5 resser minions, 3 of whom have not even been released yet.

DangerousBeans Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Hate it, put me off getting a Pandora crew. There's just SO MUCH they could have done with this instead of this characterless wad of excrement. I don't think a different paint job will really help matters either. I envisioned something a lot more sexy and sinister, kinda like Harley Quinn in Arkham Asylum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratty Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Are the big cogs part of the model? enquiring minds want to know... especially as I reckon that the cog makes up 75% of the model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dire Hoarcat Snuggler Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 A few things from my mind... 1) Wyrd was probably overtaxing themselves on the production end of things and didn't put their best work into painting it, or... 2) Terrible picture of a rather mute and low-contrast paint scheme, or... 3) She has on her TRUE face (one of those Pink Floyd "The Wall" faces) that just blend in but look way too creepy to be human 4) ??? 5) Profit ~J~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
