So there are 7 Controllers to go with each of the 7 Sins?

I do like the Controllers shown so far.

Here's Adrian Smith's Artwork showing the Avatar, Abomination and Controllers




Yes 1 controller per sin

I did a quick montage of the others from the left Envy, Wrath, Sloth, Gluttony. EDIT: found a tiny Greed added to the end

Gotta say, Pride and Lust probably have the creepiest art. The monsters really do look like Necromorphs, though. I am really looking forward to this game.

Thank you very much for the clarification! The game is a lot clearer in my head now.

a Controller, some Lessers & a Greater for each Sin.

It all fits together, and I like it even better.

If Eric Lang is involved (which I'm pretty sure he is), the rules should be smooth like butter.

The dude makes some good rules.

Spot on and then you have the Hell club who are separate to the others (they're the S&M cenobite looking guys) they are also controlled by the others player

I love the montages - the Lesser Sins are simply adorable.

I really hope we get rules previews.

I kind of respect that they didn't go the Slaneesh route for lust - T&A and such. The lust controller is simply awesome as a creepy figure. Does 40K mutant better than GW. That said, the demons all kind of run together. They could have done a better job of making them distinct flavors, as opposed "creepy twisted mutant things". They are good as that though, don't get me wrong. Envy is pretty sweet!

I love Adrian's Artwork but none of the designs really convey the sins in any obvious way.

None? Not even Wrath?

I thought that Wrath and Lust and Gluttony came across pretty well?

Q2 might become Q3

Guillotine Games - We think June or July. The Others is a a time consuming project! And we want to offer the best

Make sure they get the shipping figured out.

I would have expected that lust and gluttony controllers would be reversed or is it that the religious dude is realy into small children?

The werewolf still looks meh, but the other hero models aren't too bad I guess. The first (not Hellboy) and the second ones are pretty nice.

In some ways this is a plus in my book when it comes to (re)designing the 7 Deadlies

Maybe it's just me, but the human units do not match the sculpt quality of the monsters. I think I'd have to replace these guys with some figures that are a bit more interesting.

The humans are pretty good. The mutants are not as good as the Controllers, but the tacticals are perfectly serviceable.

The werewolf is still terrible, and needs to be reconcepted and resculpted. He's a super huge, strong, ancient werewolf. He doesn't need a sword. He should be *plenty* strong and fierce enough just with his bare claws and centuries of fighting experience.

For how good the rest of the range is, the werewolf is such a hugely obvious letdown.

I wonder, did McVey not watch any of the Underworld movies? While Kate Beckinsale is incredible to watch, the Lycans would be great models for werewolves.

While I agree that these figures are "okey", they are unfortunately underwhelming considering who are behind this project. Okey are good for most companies, but here I expect more.

Thorley sculpt by Remy - http://remytremblay.sculpture.over-blog.com/article-the-others-_-thorley-125542021.html

I think they all look pretty solid.

I can see why people wouldn't like the werewulf, but he doesn't really bother me. If you're that turned off by him, there are a few companies making werewolf minis that would suit you.

What's with the guys with the guns - is this game compatible with Sedition Wars: Battle for Alabaster?

Does anyone know if the miniatures are in Sedition Wars: Battle for Alabaster Wave 1 28 mm scale or wave 2 28 mm scale?

Most of the humanoids continue to underwhelm me, but there are some gems among them.

The fantasy vampire lady looks out of place in this setting.

Thorley is nice, as is the tentacle woman.

The werewolf is still poor.

The werewolf is badly-conceived and badly-sculpted. I shouldn't have to hunt and buy another werewolf model to make up for a clearly sub-par model in this game. There is time to get it right, and now is the time to be voicing concern and criticism.

Thorley, the horned brute, is good. I like him. Great detail in the muscle & chain.

The tentacle girl is OK, although tentacles growing backward out of one's elbows doesn't make any anatomical sense whatsoever. This might need customization, but the key is that the girl and the tentacles are well-sculpted. Just not well-integrated.

I've edited the names in above - tentacle girl is Rose

.

I mean, he doesn't bother me at all, quite frankly.

I agree the pose isn't great the concept art was much better but it's not castable in one piece (all the characters need to be one piece) so it was changed. Several of the characters do suffer a bit pose wise being one piece. The sword was kept so it's obvious it's Karl so the sword needs to be somewhere but it's an odd pose. I very much doubt any of the sculpts will change now as they are to far advanced with production but no harm in asking .

If only boardgamers would have been OK with gluing an arm on to Karl's body!

We all would have been able to avoid the "Stepping on Sword" pose!

Snap fit the arm in. No biggie.
