Hnng. I wants it, give us the precious.
Seriously though I hope it gets wheels or they put out a wheeled variant, but that model is pretty much exactly what I've been hoping these guys would produce ever since the first vehicle came out.
Oh jeebus, now I'm having visions of an INQ28 car chase game with an Inquisitor in one of the smaller vehicles accompanied by a pair of Arbite Patrol Taurox going after a Cult Limo with FW Tauros-based civilian "technicals", using the "random terrain conveyor" method from that GorkaMorka scenario...

Now we're getting somewhere!
Loving the fold up roof gun ports! Hoping those are separate pieces so that they can be used in the "up" position as well.
It is perhaps a bit long for game play purposes. I think removing one of the window sections would help. Would suggest making the rear doors double wide so that big things can enter and exit.

This limo will have optional wheels (or anti-gravs) and miniguns.
Also, it made from the three main pieces, so you can assemble it as long limo or as [un]usual two-doors civil car.

I love your range and have just ordered another necron model - absolutely loved the first one, such high quality!
Please can you think about some necrons which are toned down a little - suitable as female lords or crypteks, rather than as overlords? Your models are excellent, absolutely outstanding quality, but suitable only for overlords or special character necron crypteks. Since the royal court is one overlord, 1-3 lords and 1-3 crypteks, some slightly lower ranking models would be great! Trying to fit in say two female overlords, one female cryptek special as well as the two male overlords from GW into an army is difficult
Hope that makes sense! Thank you.

Three types of the conversion set,, one of the armoured cars also had bits broken off but I put that down to the mail.

Ok I haven't done any conversion sets so I don't know if it uses a different setup for casting or if there is some remnants of them switching from classical sculpting to digital sculpting. The only piece that would be considered conversion was the Imperial Mechanics alternate Kastelan robot heads. Those were top notch. Everything I else I have ordered have been multiple full models Tau and Imperial Inquisition which have also had no issues with.

That is the best inquisitor so far, speaking as someone struggling to paint the other two for a friend. The "standing on the rail" one's dress is a nightmare and armor has too much not quite right detail, while book waving puritan inquisitor has one arm that looks really short. This one looks much more paintable and seems very well proportioned.
Limo = very tempting indeed. Ok, awesome actually.

Because imperial citizens don't have access to what that emblem is/means. People are kept in the dark.....grimdark, and would not understand its meaning. Mishapen head isn't normal in 40k, but not out of place as the navigator houses have third eyes. So a common citizen would just think "well they are government and eccentric" plus marines wear skulls and stuff so not a big deal. Why do our cars have Jaguars on the hood, or horse emblems after all. The head could also be a trophy of a conquered enemy.

I like a lot of the things that have been added. Especially since, when I did play 40k, it always felt bare or weird that we would be playing in huge Imperial cities.. but all there ever was were these shells of buildings and rubble. With this type of stuff, you can set your games or RP scenarios in recently active (or even still active) Imperial cities. I know you can use a lot of this for counts as this or that but heck.. even just as terrain it's pretty sweet. If Quantum Gothic can keep their store up, you could really make a fully realized 40k type thing (that isn't all ruins or fortresses or whatever).

I know they've been mentioned but I haven't see a pic of them in this thread but they have a conversion set of female Necron torsos.
I'm VERY interested in them as "all" my armies are all female. Has anyone ordered them and can show some pics?
Will there be any more? These seem to fit Necron warriors? What about Immortals/Lych etc, their torsos are a bit bigger.
So if anyone orders these can you please put up some pics of the torsos next to Warriors, Immortals, Lychguards.

This is a comparison against a lychguard sprue. Please ignore photo/camera issues.
The torsos are thinner in terms of chest size (ignore boobies ) and much thinner shoulder width. They are about the right length, shoulder to rib. However it's worth noting I'm building these into lychguard. I don't have a spare warrior sprue to hand, I'll try to put one up later.
The casting is excellent, though the "hair braids" at the back are very thin and some of the sharp detail will be difficul to pick out - but then I'm a dreadful painter!. On the whole I am really looking forward to this. This is my third purchase from Wargames Ex and the first two, both phaerekhs, are simply stunning, and I can't see a single thing wrong with the torsos at all. Also, there's no ank. I assume for IP reasons.
Edit:
These torsos are great but a few things to note:
They are designed to fit warriors. I've tried them with the legs of warriors, immortals/death marks (which are a little thicker) and lychguard/triarch praetorians (thickest of all). They look best with warriors legs proportionally. In the end I went with lychguard legs (S&B) and cut the little cape things down so they are sort of wearing short skirts. Don't judge me.
The holes for arms need to be bigger. They aren't concave enough and needed ot be drilled in order for the shoulder socket to fit 'in'.
Lastly, I now have female pilots for my ghost arcs. Be afraid

Flamer Car is out. http://wargameexclusive.com/shop/imperial-inquisition/female-arbitrator-with-flamer-heavy-car-28mm/
The door is also the driver's shield, which is neat. I know some of the others are more to everyone's comfort, but I really love asymmetrical vehicles.
The door is really the only part with the hard Inquisitor iconography, so I'd probably end up sanding and greenstuffing the door into a Sororitas logo to proxy the car as an immolator. It's a separate piece, though, so theoretically WarEx could sell different/replacement doors.
You can also get the driver without the car, if that's what you're into.
And as long as we're talking cars, here's the prototype sculpt for an upcoming one that reminds me of a dachshund. I can't unsee the resemblance.

I am in love with the door-shield. Makes all sorts of fun, cinematic 'car screeches to a sliding stop, occupant leaps from the vehicle in a dive roll holding the door in front of them' things happen in my head.
13192
Post by: Ian Sturrock
I like the door shield a lot.
At first I was (perhaps foolishly, in a grimdark OTT future) thinking of practicalities, mostly along the lines of "but you would surely want thick heavy vehicular armour on your door whereas you want light high-tech thin armour on your shield so it's easy to manoeuvre". Then I remembered what a faff it is to have a shield in any kind of confined space; if I take one to a larp event it has to go on the roof or at least on top of a big pile of kit in the back, and it's non-trivial to get it out of the door in the latter case or unrope it in the former. Whereas here you just grab the handle, push the quick-release, and you're out and fighting. Perfect.
(And of course you can have a balance between light and strong... spend a load more cash/resouces on rare materials for the shield that you might not want to spend on an entire array of vehicular armour... etc.)

You're mixing up "making sense"(ie, internal logical consistency, the setting has this or that quality or makes this or that claim, and subsequent material acknowledges and proceeds logically from said quality or claim), with "practicality"(ie, "a flamethrower that large would never exist in RL blah blah I love joyless pedantry!") - I suspect most of us in this thread are probably not big fans of the latter

The use for the flame car is to park it on a board for a "scenario" and make the players nervous that the owner may show up.
I keep thinking the driver does not need to see when they take a right turn because anyone on the other side of that flamer can see it clearly enough to get out of the way.
It would not do to surprise the driver who is in charge of the trigger either.
I am thinking apocalypse template for that one.

I just had a vision of a Greater Daemon of Khorne busting through a warp breach.
A box with a long tether is launched, snaking to his feet.
He looks down in confusion as he is hit by four energy beams that taste of nuclear waste.
"Don't cross the streams! What happens again? It would be very bad... Nurgle may drop by for a visit."
The Daemon screams in frustration and anger as he is sucked into the box.
A boot kicks the box, swearing in multiple languages is heard in a tiny angry voice from within.
Suddenly some very large marines all in grey burst into the room...
"Sorry guys, too slow again. You have to learn that poking them with contained psychic energy is inefficient and just sends them off to sulk for a few years."
"<picking up box carefully by the cord> Yeah, this little guy is going into an alter-dimensional matrix where even if it experienced a breach it would still take a few thousand years to find the exit."
"Plus if you have any ideas of poking us with those brain-picks, the nuclear packs breach in a far more exciting way and MAY let the daemon out of the box... just let us deal with him and he is one less you will ever have to see again. It's been fun! Toodles!"
Oh, I could have big plans for this car...

Two rogue ordo malleus inquisitors, an adeptus mechanicus tech priest and a vet guardsman they picked up along the way using highly dangerous technology to trap demons and store them in a spaceship sized vault that both confuses and traps the demons and powers the ship's systems. They do this across the stars, slamming down on hive worlds, in the middle of chaos cultist uprisings and all manner of crap, bagging and tagging the demons.
I wonder if I could get a Rogue Trader or Inquisitor campaign rolling for that...

Statistically speaking women tend to prefer the fit/athletic look with visible musculature but not to the extent that literally every muscle on the torso is bulging out like they all have their own gym coach. Obviously that's not universal, but every time they do those statistics-driven composite renders the results are the same; fit-but-willowy - where do you think the whole angsty vampire fad came from. Men consistently overestimate how attractive the heavily-muscled look is to women because they're judging how much muscle definition is "good" based on their own experience in which muscly = big & strong = masculine.
Which was the point; you can't use "big musclebound heromen" as a counterpoint to "skimpy boob-support-machine", because those are both(in a statistically average sense, again, obviously individual people can have tastes that disagree) male fantasies, one of power and self-image, the other of sexual desire. When we start seeing hairless, toned, brooding, pouty, Edward Cullen-lookin' gits in model form, that my friend will be equality in action

I have to admit the the flamer car would make a great alternative to a chimera with a heavy flamer.

To my eye, these don't look as wide as a rhino chassis. Probably not a problem for friendly play though. Hmm, could maybe be bulked up with spare fuel barrels on the sides, but that might spoil the look...

The Chimera can still swap out both the hull mount and the turret mount for a heavy flamer / heavy bolter, but it boggles me that the Hellhound is unknown to you, as this kit more or less came out around the same time as the Chimera back in the day.

Move over Raging heroes! These are the true not-sisters (can they even be called not-sisters of battle when they're even sole as "Battle sisters Sororitas" )
They even have reasonable footware and not even boob-windows or such silliness!
While they quite obviously look like they're stepping on a few IP-toes, that goes for a lot of their existing stuff as well (including previous battle-sister models), and those hasen't gotten taken down yet so perhaps GW don't bother getting embroiled in these legal battles anymore.
It they haven't taken action against the Tau or eldar stuff, I wonder if they will for the Sisters. It's not like GW has cared much for their own sisters line in the last decade or so anyway.
EDIT:
Those battlesisters aren't sold through Wargame Exclusive though (not yet at least). It's from some russian dude. But they do have the WE feel to them for sure.
This seller have been selling *possibly* recast forgeworld stuff for a long time so I don't think the store is going down anytime soon due to these. If you can survive having products like "20 Stormtrooper heads Star Wars 28mm" up without being killed by the Disney legal team, I think you're safe selling some Sisters of battle knockoff.

WGE has posted on their FB page that they're doing a contest. You write a little fluff description in the comment of one of three images for the Tau minis (O'Katana, Big Shas, and Gunslinger) and if they select it as a winner, it'll go up on the website in the mini's description. As compensation, you win one of the minis. Three minis to win, and so far I only see one submission. Results announced June 3.

I thought the same thing when I first saw it, and still think it actually. Compared to the color granularity and tones on the base it is super bright and even, including on the undersides of the legs. Possibly it is just painted to look like that, but I suspect it is a digital painting over a picture of the render. You can see the granules and texture of the base lip clearly, but nothing on the model itself, for instance.

Why would you even think they are the same just because they are Poland and use the same rendering software? That makes absolutely not sense at all. Has there ever been any other link other than Poland and renders? There are quite a few sculptors and in Poland and none of them are even connected to Prodos.

Cheescake subject nature, very much in line with their boob plate models from Space Crusade. The style of sculpting is fairly signature as are the renders, yes a lot of people use zbrush and many of the same rendering programs but even when people use the same programs they still have a personal touch and flare. It's the same way you can look at a mini and have a good idea if it's Bob Olley sculpt or Perry Bros sculpt, most everyone has a fairly signature style. Based on the style it looks like it's probably done by the same artist as the style is very close despite being different subjects. Previously the renders from Titan Forge struck me as being in the same boat and after doing some reading on BGG it turns out that Prodos did the models for that KS line as well, they have done plenty of models for other companies so it's not like that's a impossibility.
No, not every artist in Poland is working for Prodos, but the style and rendering on these it seems to match very closely to other projects that Prodos has done. Additionally I haven't seen any other companies doing digital paint overs of models in their advert pics, which is something that Prodos has previously done.
Do you know the identity of sculptors? If not what's your criteria for assuming they are different artists?
There's no info about their company, or artists on their website, Prodos attempted to secretly operate under a different name with LOAD and has numerous business names and addresses connected to owners of Prodos & Archon so it's not much of a stretch that they could have yet another miniatures company under their wing. Does anybody have any clue who the WE people even are?
For the record I like their models and sculpts but there's no indicator of who actually makes them.

Well you can strike that part off your list. This has happened in with Bloodbowl miniatures a couple of years ago, with some people kicking up a stink that the images were digitally painted over actual models.
Just for the record they were a Spanish company (It seems Spain is to Bloodbowl what Poland is to the 40k at the moment) so very unlikely to be Prodos in that situation.

Once you've initially created your lightbox and settings, it can easily be passed on to others for renders or they use the same render farm. One of the 3d sculptors I use who does classes passes them on to students. The settings are all the same or almost similar.
For the sculptors you can find a couple links to their sculptors on Facebook, from their the portfolios. They are buried in a few places, but that was essentially how we've found a portion of the miniatures from Wargame Exclusive. As for the digital painting it isn't new. It however isn't actually a digital painting. They are painted miniatures, photographed, then utilizing photoshop essentially utilizing the dodge and burn tools. There are a couple other methods but it is simply photoshop.

Sorry I have to come back to this, it really irritated to me and I may have taken it a bit personal. Even though it should not have, it struck a chord with me. I have a few renders done that could be mistaken for Prodos renders because of how they were done, so the fact that someone would just say "It looks like something so maybe it is" without doing any research or looking up of evidence, which is fairly easy to find. Does that mean someone is going to accuse me of being Prodos under another name. It reeks of a type of racism, it is like a new type of racism, company-ism or Prodos-ism, whatever it is that the only assumption was based on look. (It doesn't matter if the company was Palladium or Defiance, my answer would have been the same. When the only justification for an accusation is "look" and "feel", with no hard or even soft evidence is just wrong) Which for the record the majority of the renders don't look the same as the Prodos renders. But since they look similar and digital painting, must be.
Here are links to their facebook as well as to the websites (half are in the original post). Their paypal uses a Coasta Rica contact information, but that could be because of paypal. The item location on their Ebay says they ship from Coasta Rica. I've never ordered from the ebay, I only ordered from their online store which uses the same paypal as the ebay based on the location. When I have purchased from the online store, it ships from the Ukraine.

Maybe they are in Ukraine, currently it's impossible to tell where they are as there's not one snipet of information about them on their website and as somebody pointed out their ebay store is being handled out Costa Rica (their shipping page says they won't ship to Russia so I'd assume they aren't in Russia). Most other online retailers tend to have an about us page that contains a basic profile of where they are physically located. Not having any information at all raises some red flags and I'd prefer to know a bit more about a company that I'm interested in doing business with.
How is having boobs discrediting? I made the connection of WE models to Space Crusade because they have a similar sculpting style. RH has plenty of cheesecake models as well but they are clearly done by a different artist as the sculpting style and proportions are distinctly different. I didn't make one comment about cheesecakle being bad or slam them about it, like I said I like these models. I am curious to know who did their sculpting and design work and who's making this stuff as it seems to be under a complete information blackout other than the company name.

Comparing it racism? Are you serious? I think you need to climb down off that cross ser knight.
Why are you so jumpy about Prodos? The only thing I was asking is if there's a possible connection due to the way their stuff is presented. Nowhere did I say that being connected to Prodos is a bad thing, they are a company that has built up a business model based on designing and producing lots of miniatures for other companies and seem reliable to deliver when it's not a KS. I fail to see where it's suddenly "morally wrong" to ask if they might have done the models for WE because contract work seems to be the current cornerstone of their established business model. Prodos/Archon has repeatedly mentioned how much work they've done for other companies so please explain how is it "wrong" to ask if they are involved in something that has no other company information being provided? There's more information given about the LOAD "creator" than what is being provided about WE, which isn't saying much.
Maybe I'm overly cautious but I'd like to know who I'm actually dealing with before I just throw money at a random in cyberspace.

I linked to you quite a few snippets of information. There is also information in this thread from people who have purchased from them. You should have some general knowledge and understanding about things like ebay and paypal. For example until Feb 13th 2016, people in the Ukraine had no access to Paypal. They could not create or receive funds from paypal due to the banks. They can now do so, in order to do sales outside that requires a different address and location setup, similar to offshore accounting. Except instead of doing so because of a low-tax jurisdiction it is because they need it to do business.

They aren't similar at all. In fact that is what spawned a whole different topic in General Discussion because of the different sculpting styles. This line along with Raging Heroes and Kingdom Death were compared to Prodos models because the Prodos ones were bad sculpts vs sexism and other things. I'm not going to hash into that topic since there is another thread devoted to that.

I did apologize and state it struck a chord. No you weren't asking if there was a possible connection, you flat accused them. There is a difference between saying:
"I wouldn't be one bit surprised if these were being made by Prodos and being sold under an alternate name."
and
"Does anyone know anything about this company, the style reminds me of Prodos so I wanted to make sure they weren't done by the same people"
One is asking a question in a somewhat polite manner, the other is just flat out making an accusation.
I am not jumpy about Prodos, but I am jumpy about people just making accusations without properly doing anytype of research. Within less than 5 minutes I found the above links I already linked. Within 10 minutes I was able to go through the accounts, see where they came from, read posts from the sculptors. Like I said it is one thing to ask a question ina query manner.
Also the infromation about Titan Forge is also wrong. Prodos did do some 3d printing for masters and some sculpting however the majority of them are not from Prodos themselves.

That's great I've already read each of those links, none of them contain any information about where or who they actually are. All of their posts are done by the nameless page manager of WE company or by the artists handle Grim-Skull (who once in a while cites being female, or "we", or "team" indicating multiple people). But a handle is exactly that, not an actual name or identity.
Here's literally what the About Me pages read as on FB, which provides nothing to their identity or location. Outside their shipping policy there's absolutely no company info on either the store website or the blog. Ebay is useless for information as you are not privy to who you are buying from in advance of the purchase the only information they give upfront is the supposed country of origin and feedback. People buy from a seller listed in Costa Rica and items apparently arrive from Ukraine, so the upfront address is "flexible" at best. (I'd prefer to say false) It may be a workaround for not being able to use paypal in country X but I fail to see any reason why they can't provide some detail about who/where they are unless they feel they need to purposefully conceal that information and that does not lead to establishing trust as a potential business partner.

Post by: Dark Severance
Since everyone else isn't staying on topic. In my defense it was meant as a comparison, not actually saying it was racism. When the only deciding factor used to determine something was something else was "look" and "feel"... nothing else. It wasn't even stated in a question but was accusing.
Might as well just accuse another company, that someone can't find out their sculptors because... they use the same "looking" resin and the miniatures "feel" like Prodos.
The initial sculpts that Wargame Exclusive did were actually traditional sculpts, not 3d sculpted. They semi recently made the switch to digital as you can tell by comparing older miniatures to newer ones, you can spot the differences and improved quality.
But enough about that. They are not Prodos. As with anything else, buying does buy a risk. There are multiple people in this thread who have purchased and purchase regularly without any issues. I have yet to hear an issue. That doesn't mean there won't be one, but at this time we haven't encountered one.

You know, Eastern Europe and Russia have some cool miniatures coming out of them, but I have never ever, ever had problems with people there. I have had more problems with UK companies.
I have a feeling people tried the sexist card, now they are trying oh so corrupt card. whats next?

I keep checking but yeah waiting for the not-warp spider and the rest of the Samurai Tau before I make another purchase.

I wish they would have pictures of the pieces. Some have heads separated and others don't, not that it is too difficult of a mod but would be nice to know what the individual pieces were.

That's great I've already read each of those links, none of them contain any information about where or who they actually are. All of their posts are done by the nameless page manager of WE company or by the artists handle Grim-Skull (who once in a while cites being female, or "we", or "team" indicating multiple people). But a handle is exactly that, not an actual name or identity.
Here's literally what the About Me pages read as on FB, which provides nothing to their identity or location. Outside their shipping policy there's absolutely no company info on either the store website or the blog. Ebay is useless for information as you are not privy to who you are buying from in advance of the purchase the only information they give upfront is the supposed country of origin and feedback. People buy from a seller listed in Costa Rica and items apparently arrive from Ukraine, so the upfront address is "flexible" at best. (I'd prefer to say false) It may be a workaround for not being able to use paypal in country X but I fail to see any reason why they can't provide some detail about who/where they are unless they feel they need to purposefully conceal that information and that does not lead to establishing trust as a potential business partner.
All I can say is that I've ordered WE stuff through their website and through ebay (user montastore), although I'm not sure whether or not the ebay user is theirs or a reseller. All orders arrived from Ukraine within a reasonable time and in great quality/condition.
Why exactly does it matter to you whether or not Prodos is behind them and where they come from, though? Their products are of high quality, and I've yet to hear something negative about their (= WEs) business. Even if there would be links to prodos - how does this affect anything?
Prodos' and WEs styles are different, either you like both, dislike both or you like one or the other. If you dislike Prodos and WE that doesn't mean they're the same style or company.

That sniper is great. I wonder if it'll take a Firewarrior/Pathfinder head?

There are a few people out there doing it... not sure why, as it looks awful.

But some companies can't afford to hire a professional painter and since their sculptors are good n the computer they just multitask them to tweak the paint job with photoshop. They should just find a painter in the community who would like free stuff and go that route, but sometimes they just want a pic on the website fast.

it can also be a significant saving time wise if they need a 'painted' picture for packaging
you can theoretically have your box art being printed while the mini is still in the 3d printer queue instead of waiting for either prints (or even worse time wise) final casts
not ideal and I'd rather see actual painted examples (of the final cast) but I suspect we'll see more of it in the future

Those new models are much improved - the breachers are now something I might buy, instead of something I'd be horribly embarrassed by.

Love the Tau and Necron models especially. Already received my shipments:
http://wargameexclusive.com/shop/necrocyborgs/10-necrocyborg-female-warriors-conversion-set-28mm/ and http://wargameexclusive.com/shop/greater-good/female-tau-network-hacker/
The quality really is fantastic from the level of detail to the material itself. Some of the best models I have seen. Kind of sad when this is compare to say.. finecast. Really none of the GW models compare to these.
I'm really surprised thought that there are no Daemonette models. The current GW ones are abysmal, so it would be amazing to see. I am also surprised there are no Eldar models yet. The current Eldar models by GW are extremely hit or miss. I can only imagine what many of the aspect warriors would look like (especially the howling banshees )

I finally sent an email to them about the Warp Spider figure from a few pages back. Their reply:
It was work in progress. We'll sell this miniature among with some others in a few weeks.
Thank you for your interest
So hopefully I will be ordering soon!

They've been quiet recently because they've been testing their new 3D printer for prototyping and whatnot. The release schedule should be picked up again sooner or later.

Why don't you order directly through the website instead of ebay?

Post by: swampyturtle
ebay is in USD and eaiser IMHO

Post by: Dark Severance
That is fair. Technically the website is cheaper given exchange rates but I can understand how it can be easier depending on how you buy (paypal, credit card, etc). The advantage is I don't have to wait for ebay restocks or relists though, just buy whenever.

I asked about the status of those eldar models including both this banshee model and the warp spider one, and apparently they are going to be avialable some time early this month. Granted when they were revealed, they were apparently going to be available within a couple months. They look great though.
