Abyssal Dwarfs just aren't the same. A bunch of companies make "Chaos Dwarfs", but they're either based on the pre-4th edition midget Chaos Warrior style ones, or a bland hybrid of the two styles.

Reset by Peer posted:I have no clue what all of you are on. Chaos Dorfs are loving amazing. I especially like the metal ones. The one above is from a very old plastic set of identical monopose models. But even those dudes had a strange charm to them. They are goofy as gently caress, but in a good way. I picked up a regiment of them for a ridiculously low sum last year - they normally go for a minimum of £10 a model or something stupid and I got them off ebay for an actually sort of reasonable for tiny plastic dudes price - but I got them as a bithday gift for a friend who GMed our WHFRP campaign with a Chaos Dwarf main villain. Took a lot of willpower not to just keep them for myself.

There's still some of the source material in the British Museum and probably other international museums. I guess that these priceless relics have not been exploded is sort of an upside of over a century of horrifying imperialism from the European powers.

Completely unrelated to the thread topic, but it's similar to China. Lots of their relics were destroyed during the Cultural Revolution and now there are far larger collections in Europe from all the looting that European countries did.

FWIW some of the most priceless pieces were conspicuously absent from the ISIS museum smashing video. One theory is that the "best of" collection was flipped on the black market to pay for more guns, bombs, and video cameras. There's an FBI warning issued about it.

Speaking of alternative Chaos Dwarves, does anyone make a good Llamasu? That's the one model I wish I got when it was re-released with Storm of Magic. Love that ugly thing.

I think they do still sell it but they had to make a head swap as a separate purchase.

Not to derail the fascinating Chaos Dorf conversation, but is this still the place to post uninspiring models? Ok, so here is a studio painted Arcanist model for Warmachine: This dude is useful enough to field multiples of him, but it's a mono-pose model so you usually end up to have two or more identical dudes your army. Most people distinguish them by painting their hair different color, or by re-positioning the tool arm... This dude however tried the good old gender swap, with predictable results: Unzipped coat, bare midriff and boob window. And also he loving put snow on the base, because that makes perfect sense with the amount of exposed skin on that model.

Better get your miniatures dressed in proper clothing when they're facing off Frost Magic Soviets, Burning Desert Christians and Dragon Necromancers. Don't want them to catch a cold or something. Catachans shouldn't get armor saves either.

Don't want them to catch a cold or something. See, female Catachan troops wearing tank-tops would be fine, because it would fit the theme, seeing how Catachan men go shirtless half the time. But in Retribution of Scyrah army capes, shawls, and turtlenecks seem to be the norm. For comparison, this is how most Elf women look in this game (tactical boob-plate + turtleneck): And let's face it, boob window has no combat utility. The sole purpose of that particular costume design is for titillation. Here is a "pro painted" Stormfront Lanternal and his weird dog: Check out the amazing blending on the cape (blue table painting quality): It can be yours for $90 US bucaroos, plus $10 for shipping.

I'm not that better, but I'd probably manage a better cape than that. Would be better at disguising a pile of rubber erasers as an ogre, too. And yes, that's some lovely painted Lanternal.

Well the model he modded it off has a tank top, but I suppose he was good enough to sculpt the cogwheel collar, he could've done a proper collar and shirt.

I'm pretty sure the gear was there already. I like that model but if I ever paint mine she is getting an undershirt for that bare midriff, I am undecided about the boob window.

Is it Drednought o'clock yet? Bubblegum Crisis: Mint Oreo: Chaos Tanknought: Bonus Round Trollminator: I don't even know where the head is supposed to be on this: Play-Doh Nightmare, aka "a competent sculptor can make disturbing nightmare faces using any medium": And last, but not least this great model labeled simply as: "Warhammer Space Marine Custom Made Emperor" Truly, one of the most striking Golden Throne dioramas out there.
