    Keep it up! Having seen your other work then obviously you have the skills to finish this convincingly. A WIP is a WIP after all.

    The fur is a good look for a dwarf queen! And I never realized how much Sanguinius looked like my grandmother.

    If this the case I’m sorry to report your Nan looks like Leman Russ 👵🐺

    Thanks it is still cery early days - Has beena total Marmite of a Miniature in terms of reponse. 
     

    More to come.

    My 2 cents, Great Box. 
     

    Surprised just hownmuch I like the Stormcast, I think this a really well defined and refined concept, having Stormcast with Major Flaws really is interesting, I’ll repeat something I said a while ago - It what Makes Thunder Warriors Interesting, the First batch of proto-astartes begin to “decompose and break apart”, in this case, the Proto StormCast of the First Generation. Hope to see more Flaws as the range expands.

    Skaven are decent, strange as gribbly things are usually my bag, but I’m not taking screenshots or drawing up plans to buy any - Possibly down to them being Skaven in AoS and I’ve not yet developed a Lore Love for them, possibly because I’m getting Older and Shiny Stuff doesn’t grab me like it used to.

     

    My quibble however is the Preview - there’s something so un-organic and forced about this preview style. It feels like I’m watching the QVC/Tele sales channel instead of Warhammer. Not Sure why they’re chatting on sofas, I want to see someone holding the miniatures around a table chatting going “Korr, Look, it has a little hidden Vial here, look a rune on this side of the helmet” - yh know while someone else doe s a little lore break down. And then showing the same video near on Repeat, I think the pace needs to be different, and the couch interview really needs to move to a table with the minis at hand. 
     

     

    tldr - Stormcast Amazing, Skaven cool, Preview Show weird and  oddly paced. 
     

    Now back to work where I can’t really explain to anyone that I was up until 2:30 AM because Plastic miniatures were being shown in an American Timezone but if it was NFL or Basketball everyone would be like ah cool, hope you enjoyed the game, well take it easy - Grumble 😂😩

    Wondering if someone could explain, because It may be a gap in my experience.

    What is the overlap between Wrestling and AoS. I’d rather see some in depth interviews with the design team, concept artists and game development team. Even a Game with some of the Warhammer TV usuals. 
     

    But thats just me.

    My Log for my Dwarfen Holds. Some canonical and some Homebrewed Ideas and conversions. 
     

    First Up one of my Favourite Warhammer Characters. The Myth, the Legend, The Living Saga that is -

     

    GROMBRINDAL THE WHITE DWARF

    Still in the early Stages. But Happy with the look so far, Maybe its because I grew up with the older illustrations of the White Dwarfs where his Beard  overflows and really captures the Eye, Equally, there’s something quite outstanding from the 300 White Dwarf Design. I suppose I’m trying to make a pastiche of both concepts.

    Your First White Dwarf Issue?

    in Age of Sigmar Discussions

    Posted

    Inspired by the recent article on WarCom, and with The Fabled Hobby Magazine coming to a 500th Issue celebration - What Was Your First Issue?

     

    Its probably not the case much anymore, but for my experience and Possibly that of many Grey Beards, we started the Hobby simply buying the cool looking magazine on the shelf (A devious Ploy by James Workshop). My First Issue was 231, 8 Year Old Me didn’t realise a core character about me was about to be born. I actually didn’t buy my first Warhammer Model Until I was 11! I Remember reading that Magazine until the very pages fell off. I Clearly remember being in Awe at the Releases of Scylla and Dechala, The Beautiful Chaos Army Showcase and the Tyranid Battle Report.

    Looks like "chinese plastic" to me. New terrain, Endless or Incarnate?

    Colour me intrigued, how can you tell this, what are the “signs”. Is it casting detail?

    4 minutes ago, Ejecutor said:

    If we didn't know that the Celestant Prime is not being renewed I would say new Celestant Prime, but as Nezhil said, I would go for the new generic Endless Spells (which I just figured out that if this is a thing it has to be revealed shortly after the box as it would be needed from day one).

    Well, this is assuming this is even for AoS and not something Psychic for Agents of the Imperium.

    Malerion and his Aelves are just a couple of editions away? Nah. It should be a rumour. What is more important is... What happened to the HH Clan!?

    The Horus Heresy Prime IP was lost in the Strife. A brave last stand for the Single HH employee left. Shame because they were just about to do the 50th Weapon Set for SoH.

    The Year is 2074, 10 years after the Civil strife in Warhammer World HQ. The Warring Clans -   Warhammer the Old World, AoS, and 40K have destabilised the Peace Treaties due to a disagreement on the Spelling of “Snotlings”. The Neutral Faction of “Specialist Designers” celebrate their first release in decades, “Bill The Pony- Get Back on the Road”. The internet brays with excitement at rumours that Malerion and his Aelves are just a couple of editions away.

    Brilliant work, so creepy and imaginative, really expands the boundaries of the hobby

    Thanks ! ❤️

     

    Work Starts on Vashanesh, Mortarch of Shadows, Usi g this Blanche image, and a lot of Vampire tropes, as inspiration. I would really like a think mane of hair on him. I Really like How bestial his Face is in the Blanche Artwork.
