The base looks like it skews things a bit.

I'll be losing that when I put mine together.

Not to mention his sculpted base is him standing on a big inquisitorial symbol, which is a little too on-the-nose for me. Definitely ditch

Got the model, pretty decent overall. A very good cast with few moldlines and virtually no casting issues (a tiny bubble on his earlobe (which is obscured anyway) and his left cuff. All of which should be pretty much invisible when Im done.

As to the proportions - hes not more disproportionate than the art. except, the art shows him with a tiny pin-head, while the model gave him a heroic head. Its kind of necessary for him to not stick out like a sore thumb...

Generally though, very happy. A bit expensive ofc, but not more than other character models. And the rules arent too bad either...

Does anyone have any decent ideas for a base model I could convert Cherubael from though? Ive been considering Flagellants, not sure though...

I assembled him last night along with some Scions, a couple Deathwatch marines, and an assassin. The Deathwatch marine is clearly about half a head taller than the others, and Eisenhorn is essentially the same height when standing on about an extra base width of terrain. If I put a base under a scion they're the same height and it makes it pretty clear they're about the same head to toe. Basically the same as the assassin. Also, his head doesn't seem nearly as large in person as it looks on the site. Not sure why exactly. It's also a separate piece so you can easily tilt it to the side to reproduce the look of the art better. He's a nice model, though I still don't love GW resins.
