I still say putting tendrils over the sharp cutting edge of the bonesword is a bit silly.

Sorry, had a busy day.

Some general Fluer shoulders, combat corsets and vaguely robed and armored legs would be great. In general some sort of crusader nuns would be cool, just remember: Robes and Corsets, not habits.

You mentioned about the art for Sisters of Silence (which would also rock) being owned by someone else. Isn't pretty much all of what you do related to art owned by other folks? Or is it more of a question of upgrades for model X, not an entirely different model Y?

When it comes to Inquisitors, I would say various sci-fi armored female torsos, proportional legs and arms and the like would be plenty. Maybe some fancy microwave shooting pistols, mind bullet guns and the like too?

Sorry but what does that have to do with the new heads and lashwhips?

I think we can touch sisters of battle and silence, Ill have to think up what to do for them.

And I still say that I'm a artist with silly ideas... nothing we can do about our, so diferent, take on these concepts right?

Edit: checked pics of lash on Chapterhouse and they have a cool image of bended lashes and on critters... bended they look just like I imagined them.

Nothing a file or Dremel can't fix in seconds
BTW I like them as they are. For everyone else there are different options.

I'd touch some Sisters of Battle and Silence. Rawr!

:-P

Seriously, if you could rock a torso with ball and socket legs and arms, and shoulder bits, I would be in hog heaven.

True but all these things require alterations and the bigger/more detailed a concept already is the more and more careful alterations are needed, that means involving legal and that means coughing up a ton of money for it.

Besides a torso need legs and arms since a female torso wont go well with marine arms and legs...and that means a special head as well etc etc.
All of a sudden we are talking about one whole standalone mini AND then some since who builds whole armies that consist of the same mini all over again? (unless you play tau that is hehe)
All this require further legal research.

But I´m not saying we wont do it, the idea is definitely good and I guess Nick and I are going to have a serious discussion about further sculpt project priorities (arent we Silent Bob?).


Nick:
Where have you dropped of the skull helmet?
lol




...gah, damned cold, my head hurts.

Ahh cool, thanks for the explanation. I didn't mean to come off snarky (I hope I didn't,) I am just really curious as to what the different rules about such things are. My job is pretty much to know how systems work and how you can game them, so I am always curious to find the little tricks and hacks to deal with rules, whether natural or legal
I look forward to seeing what you lads come up with though. Your power armor and now eldar are really impressive, and I am itching for some things that I can buy for my armies

And suddenly that Jetbike Eldar army is one step closer to completion...

Although I'd sell you someone's soul for some good looking female Inquisitors.

How about sculpting female Guardian/Warlock/Autarch bodies. GW seems to think that male and female bodies only differ in boobs.
There is also a market for female Cadians BTW.

Only for their Elves. Males and Females in their other ranges differ considerably more.

The problem is that, with how slender the current Guardian bodies are, making obviously female bodies (as in a body shape that stands out from the male version) is difficult without making them wasp-waisted caricatures (See Dark Eldar Wyches).

Given that Elves are often portrayed as being reasonably androgynous to human eyes, and the slender (compared to their humans) design of the current Guardians, just adding boobs is more or less sufficient.

Awesome stuff guys!

Just ordered my Lashwhips! These are great bits, and you guys keep up the good work!

Expect some orders for the bikers from me!
The jetbike side pieces seem a bit large to me, but I'll wait until I have them in my hands before making up my mind.

Have a look at the current Banshees, first Eldar models to have a female hip. The Wyches have an extremly narrow male hip. Let the wallets decide if people want female or male bodies for their female Eldar

And how about a male/female Eldar pilots? Or female Tau?

Are there any news about the spore pods?

Navarro is having fun with private sculpting projects, so my guess is: No!

Those Gas Mask heads are making their way to my Crimson Lance Marines.

Speaking of which, is it possible to get a shoulder pad for meq and termies with the lance emblem in this pic on it???

Yes. Contact Nick about it.

Probably, I´m busy with other helmets at the moment but to make Mk3 helmets would be hard without violating the IP of their looks as they are very distinct and the slightest alteration would make them not look so mk3-ish any more.

As always guys, awesome stuff. Especially on the DG helmets.

Is there an update on that skull helm? My mareenz need their Chaplin.

Your siggy is ******* awesome! It's got some typos tho.

One of our local stores has started carrying and special ordering Chapterhouse items. I love it, just picked up my special order of 20 jump packs last week at the Ard Boyz!

Yeah, that is convenient for you gamers It may be more common in the future (I will not use wholesalers though, I am happy to deal with retailers).
