Tom Meier is truly a god amongst sculptors...



Yes, that's a 30(ish)mm miniature...

More pics here.

that woul make a great imperial noble..... i might have to pick that up just to paint tbh.

Tom really is the "old master" in the miniature sculpting world.

Love his stuff.

nice, i got to get me one of that, change the laser to a fancy cigarette or small blade, and I have a posh vampire

I may, no WILL have to get me one of those... purely to paint... I love Steampunk dammit...

So they put the engine on the caboose? do people not sit down in steampunk? Other than the strange placement of the whatever, it's a nice sculpt!

Any idea when this will go on sale? I love the detail work on the bodice and the generator. This could easily stand in for an Inquisitor. Hm...

Wow, that is a really impressive sculpt, concept and execution, seems tough to get both ends these days. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, very interesting model... well done Mr. Meier!!

I'd have to say it's a mini steam/boiler/coal furnace type of device.

hmmm... maybe a WH inquisitor? I hate the queen bee female one they have.

Actually- where the power pack is, makes for good composition. If it were placed on a hip it would throw the balance of the model off- and ruin the hourglass waistline silhouette.

Also- with that type of skirt- its not for sitting since that would flatten the ruffles. He may have also been going for the shape of a 'bustle' with that power pack.

Its a very well done sculpt.

Ah, beat me to it. Very well put.

I'd love that in necromunda, and I'd love it even more as a 54mm model for Inquisitor.

Reminds me of Back to the Future 3.

This is a gorgeous mini.

Its high on my buy list.

Wow, I want that so hard for a Rogue Trader mini... maybe even a Rouge Trader!

It's an excellent mini. The real Jen Haley looks alot like Inara from Firefly in her pic.
