For some reason, a lot of miniatures of women have fugly faces. I imagine it's hard to get it right at that scale.
But in your opinion (with pics), which are the 'prettiest' faces on models?

Anything by Reaper's Werner Klocke.

Of course, "anything" because every female he's sculpted has the same face.

Here's my favorite:

@ Ghidorah : There's a slight difference between becoming sexually attracted to your model and going "if she were real, she'd be pretty." Or just finding a model as being good looking rather than pug-fugly.

Just because anyone agrees with anyone, doesn't mean they are correct. Beware the thin line between what is "Correct" and what is "Popular."

Jesus Christ, those aren't breasts, they're balloons! I bet she never has to worry about sinking when she falls in the water.

@Ghidorah: Jeez, overreaction of the century right there. Think you made your point yet, or do you want to post one more time just to reassure everyone that you're normal and don't think of models in that way?

Anyway, for everyone who isn't a hyperactive lunatic, I've found Reaper probably has some of the better sculpts.

I have to agree, if you are looking for good female faces Reaper or Confrontation are some of the best, plus of course Werner Kloch.

GW don't have that great a track record in general, their sisters of battle are a little too stern looking for my taste but this inquisitor model is nice, although 54mil of course.

Prettiest. As in attractive.

Anyone who finds a miniature physically attractive has REAL problems and needs serious psych help before they go human hunting in McDonald's or a shopping mall.

its just a pointless post that for some reason is ment to be smart? funny? or just annoying?

Well you'd better be glad they aren't real, cause if they were your face would be ripped off, eaten, and your ears would be bleeding from the cry of the banshee. But they are a very nicely made model, and I want one.

"I.. I know my time has come" Tethesis said with a gasp, a torrent of blood flowing from his lips.
"No! Hang on brother!!" Altharius could feel the warmth slip away from his dear sibling's hands

Tethesis's reached out his bloodied arm to Altharius's face.
"I..I have one final request"
Altharius leaned close to listen, tears welling in his once bright eyes.
"make sure th..they put my soulstone in a tank... it'll be... real fethin' cool"
"Yes, you're gonna be the most fethin' cool tank!!" burning hot tears streaked down Altharius's face, as he held his brother's soul in his grasp.

Whilst I'm sure Gidorah can trash a cardboard city in some obsure, dire monster film, I'd advocate taking your negative impulses and directing them at the nearest wall. Bricks and mortar will surely give you more sympathy than other viewers on this thread.

Yeah but she has to worry about falling on her face constantly because she can't support the weight.

And so, due to rising costs of maintaining the Golden Throne, the Emperor's finest accountants spoke to the Demigurg. A deal was forged in blood and extensive paperwork for a sub-prime mortgage with a 5/1 ARM on the Imperial Palace. And lo, in the following years the housing market did tumble and the rate skyrocketed leaving the Emperor's coffers bare. A dark time has begun for the Imperium, the tithes can not keep up with the balloon payments and the Imperial Palace and its contents, including the Golden Throne, have fallen into foreclosure. With an impending auction on the horizon mankind holds its breath as it waits to see who will gain possession of the corpse-god and thus, the fate of humanity......

I'm such a nerd that this annoys me. Orks don't have sex! They spore. GW be consistent!

Eve and the inquisitor have Elfish features, not sure if that is by design

I'm thinking I like giant boob woman's face the most. All the other models have overly large facial features (eyes, mouth etc), which is prob what you want on a miniature, along with other heroic proportions, but I like the more proportional face of back-problem lady
