Greetings everyone, first post on Dakkadakka here!

Picked up this gal from an online discount Reaper Miniatures shop, mounted her on a rock I found in my driveway and replaced the cartoony-looking blade with a proper one from the Skaven Clanrat set. She needs a few touch-ups, but I'm happy with her enough to show you all Amaranth (named so due to the fact that I listened to "Amaranth" by Nightwish multiple times while painting her)!

That may be the most disturbing mini I've ever seen on these pages. Did those boobs come on the "foxy lady" or were those implants (read conversion)? I don't really want to know, actually. Welcome aboard anyway chum.

Nice.

Digging the Hendrix Reference, nicely painted mini.

I'm against furries though. But who isnt'?

I'm a survivor of a furry infested roomate situation. Great, now I'm having flash backs.

NO! KEEP THE PEOPLE WEARING COLLARS AND TAILS AWAY! STOP EATING MY RICE CRISPIES!!! WOULD IT KILL YOU TO WASH A DISH!?! YOU NEED TO EMPTY THE LINT TRAP! IT'S NEON BLUE SO I KNOW IT WAS YOU!

Its sad. Why can't you focus your hate on something worse, like the my little pony crap that keeps resurfacing.
You guys are gonna scare him away.

Why can't everyone get along?

I think you did a great job!

Very well painted mini. Better than I can do right now.

@DOD-This is a miniatures forums, not just a 40k forums. So he can post what ever mini he wants here.

Yeah, the furry hate keeps spilling from 4chan...

sigh...

Yes, he can post any painted miniatures he wants here, but he must also understand that furry-hate is an autonomic reaction that only a brutal regimen of horrible, horrible abuse can overcome.

Actually, it's a general miniatures forum, so I can post whatever I like. And who said it had to be a "furry"? What of werecreatures from the MANY RPGs? And in reality the Furries would be winning there in that battle. Loyalists AND 4channers? Double fail.

You think THIS is disturbing? I should show you the Orc Cheerleader my friend made! And they came on the mini. Don't worry, I have PLENTY of Chaos to post soon.

I'm not, being one. It's just a stupid meme 4chan started 'cause some people in my 'community' are wierdos, Every group has them, even 40k (the stinky rules lawyers who kill the fun of the game, for example), so it's not really fair for one party to judge another. Just be glad I'm not a wierdo like the guy below mentioned

I'm sorry that you got one of the sorry excuses as a roomie, but I'm a decent guy; don't pretend to be an animal in real life, I don't scream "yiff" every 5 seconds, I'm an avid gamer (Retro video games, XBOX 360, Warhammer, RPGs, etc.), and I'm intelligent. And no, I don't own a fursuit, though I do plan on making a set of Death Guard armor later on. Also, why do people keep ASSUMING that I'm a furry just 'cause of this figure? By that logic, ANY 40k of Fatnasy player who owns a mini with an animal in it is a furry.

Trust me, they're not gonna scare me away. I'm not a dramawhore like people make furries out to be. And agreed on MLP. Or Sarah Palin. Or the Kardashians. or the new MTV. Or anythign Jersey-related.

...I'm gonna stop now, I'm getting sick to my ass.

Thank you, Fallen! Whatever I am or am not behind the screen really makes no difference; the fact that I can convert and paint miniatures very well does, though. If I happen to enjoy furry art/RP as well, well...that's irrelevant! XD But yeah, thanks for sticking up for me and the mutual love of minis!

I'm considering adding scars or tattoos when I do the touch-ups; any suggestions, guys?

I would blur out the nipples a bit in your photos, as nudity isn't allowed per se, but the model looks very nice. I love the eye. The way that the green in the eye contrasts just enough with the orange to make is stand out, yet the orange still holds your focus.

And nay for tattoos, because of the fact that Tattoos are for the skin, not the fur. But "Brushed On War Paintings" would be fine by me!

Also, a last note: The hand looks very awkward. Was this done during the changing of the blade, or did the model come with the hand like that?

Once again, great work. I hope to see more of your stuff!

NSFW should be added to the title.

Otherwise, good job.

You will see more, VERY soon in fact! (I'm going to post my Kharnversion here soon!)

And yay, someone noticed the green in her eyes! As for the blurring, I may do that on my laptop; don't have access to good art programs right now. :( For the hand, it came that way; the wrist is turned, she's holding the sword blade-down but her hand's turned if that makes more sense I was going to replace it, but I had no hands that are the right size. Gal's tiny! XD

And tats/brushed-one, it's the same in application And perhaps the tattooing process (or even dying?) causes it to always grow back dark in the tattoo's pattern? Need to look for some designs...

Friend as long as you bathe at least bi-monthly and dont blast anime tentacle rape porn in the living room at 3am, and dont clog the dishwasher and leave it for a week until I get home from vacation( I always assumed that's what Nurgle would smell like) like these two, you've got nothing to worry about here.

1: I try to shower at least ONCE a week XD
2: I have the decency to wear earphones
3: I can fix basic stuff, and I actually wash dishes

So I guess I have nothing to worry about!

Wooohoo!

Really? Do we really need to see fox woman furry nipples?


Reported.

Really? Would it ahve hurt so badly to just click "back" instead of replying in a manner that wasn't constructive in the slightest?

EDIT: Also, no one NEEDS to see it. The title already alludes to it, and no one's holdign a gun to your head and making you look at it. At least I HOPE not...

Yif

No thanks Seriously though guys, what of all the Slaanesh models with suggested breast exposure/suggested nipples, or even actual nipples! Seriously, grow up.

How are furries disgusting, hm? How? Why all the hate? And really, like many Slaanesh and other 40k models are SFW, what with the gore and such. Also, youre personal dislike of furries has no bearing on what I can and can't post; you can simply not look.

And also "in reality" I don't think 4chan space marines would be fighting furries, but if they did, and you see it in the picture, that's exactly what would happen

Nope. Loyalists suck hard. Check out Deathwatch; one-on-one in a fight true to the fluff, Chaos Marines > Loyalist Marines.

Um... because they want to have sex with dogs with bewbs?

Nooo, that's beastiality. "Furry" covers a wide range of styles; it's all aesthetics. The vast majority of furry characters are more human-like in build, and are sentient beings as well. Your argument falls flat; also, not all of us are just in it for the sex; most of the people you're thinking of are pure sexual fetishists, not true "furries".

Nice job there man, as already pointed out the hand is a bit weird but overall nice mini.

For those angry over this, there is MUCH worse than a fox with boobs.

I MAY still replace it, time will tell. Thanks for the compliment!

And THANK YOU! Ever heard of "two girls one cup"? Furries are just an aesthetic difference; think catgirls from anime if it helps! As one person said: "A nice ass is a nice ass, even if there's a tail attached" (Given it's still a human-like ass. XP)

Dakka is not 4chan. Further flaming of OP will result in suspensions.
