In the meantime, we at least have the green (and grey):

That's a 30mm base he's on (and the barrel is a separate piece) so he should be just fine, size-wise. Looks like whenever I finally get around to my Necro team, I'll be getting a couple of these guys!

Good looking fig, but i have issues with it. The head looks more like a rat than WW. And the tail is all wrong. They've done it like a horses tail, a bunch of long hair, not a proper canine tail.

Wait to see the one we are working on now.
Just to make sure our model will be 35/36mm to the eye. To show bigger in the team and will go on a 25mm round base. Is that correct?

I really like the dynamic pose of the miniatures, but I think it wont work well on a playing field, but it would make awesome use for a Blood Bowl diorama, apart from the fact that it looks more like a rat than a wolf

As soon as the model progress I will post some images, for now we have an armature done and some body shape. That is all we have not much to see. But the head will be much bigger and mean.

Damn - a sensible and correct post from Hoomin.

Right, the world's about to end - I'm off to get pissed.

*runs ouside to check the moon isn't blood red and the seas aren't boiling*

I'm thinking of getting one. Replace the tail, and it'll make a damn fine rat ogre

I weep for the future.

Back on Track... I'm content to wait for the final sculpt & paint to see what happens.... I'm told that, while the hand is on a barrel in the work-up, that you can have him vaulting anything.... Depending on how far off the ground the back feet come, I've a GW, dead skaven that would fit near perfect on a 30mm base....

We'll see....

Digger Goreman · Post by **Digger Goreman** » Thu Mar 12, 2009 8:42 pm

I've figured out what part of the wolf vs rat thing is...: the fangs! In the concept art, the werewolf has pronounced upper and lower fangs that seem to be missing in the sculpt (right now, at least)....

The artwork is a front, hurdle maneuver, snarling sideways (which I like), as opposed to a side-wise maneuver in the sculpt, snarling forward....

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm............

hoomin_erra · Post by **hoomin_erra** » Thu Mar 12, 2009 8:54 pm

Yup, the fangs are a main part, but i think the head and snout could be a bit longer, and the ears a bit longer too. It's just that in it's current state, the head just screams skaven.
