My guess is direct affirmative action by P.E.T.T.! These Monster Rights Activists are dangerous people!

Get into it!

Hey... It worked in 300.

The way they explained it was that Skorne ethics allowed for the torture of titans, therefore,
PETT was all about promoting the torture of baby titans. I got a button from Gencon a
couple years ago.

Yay - the site is back up.

My verdict on Rasheth:

I really like the model, its characterful of a man who is totally decadant and has let his wealth and power get the best of him.

So what does he do???

My money is on that he is the long awaited Skorne Warlock for Beasts. I can't see him being any good in combat and he is going to be slower than a sleepy hutt and really easy to hit. He'll have a ton of hit boxes though. Expect his beasts to get really nasty.

I propose that his name from now on should be Biscuit Boy, in light of Pearl from Blade.

No way, Gnoblars are awesome sauce.

Way cuter than your elephants. Which, BTW, look like naked Gnoblars.

Yeah, gotta say the Ogre model is way better. Much more personality and doesn't give me a headache looking at it.

The agonizers don't bother me. I think they're ugly, but the concept of a ficticious beast being tortured by a ficticious culture that makes Mike Vick look like the Dog Whisperer, doesn't bother me.

The dude bothers me. Skorne are supposed to be this martial culture with all sorts of in-fighting and assassinations and double-crosses. But, no one has bothered to kill the powerful fat guy? Don't buy it. Morghul would make him cry to just eliminate a potential rival.

And why is the dude pointing? Those agonizers can't see him!

Maybe he's in his palace and telling his servants to "GET ME MAH CAEK!!!"

I think the idea is that his power has allowed him to fall into decadence.

It's like how the Kayazy Assassins that survive combat turn into Mr. Clean.

If I had another hand, I would give that thing three thumbs down.

Jabba anyone?

Hell princess Leia choked his ass out in 30 seconds yet he had somehow built a long standing massive criminal empire...

That Ogre model is a big pile of steaming poo...

I think the Ogre would be decent if given a spectacular paintjob. As for the Skorne guy... I can... kinda... see, what they were attempting, but the actual design of the model doesn't work at all.

Not my favorite model, but the 3d rotation on privateer's website shows that it's not that bad from other angles.

Apparently their photographer occasionally likes taking pics of models from the worst angle possible.

When Warmachine first came out I thought the miniatures pretty awesome. I even played menoth and cryx for a few years. I don't know if they have contracted new scuplters or what but a lot of the latest models are really just not too good.

If people are typing with one hand because of my avatar, I just don't want to know it. TMI.

Thumbs are not what's up here...

The question is where those thumbs are.

I love that JHDD's avatar is actually pointing to the bewbs, as if we don't notice them....lol

Fat Guy on Disk=Epic FAIL

Ogre and Tallyman are both light years better. Perhaps if the disk were a bit bigger?

I think the design is limited by base size limitations.

30mm
40mm
50mm

They don't have size categories beyond that. So Fat Guy on Disc can only be so wide.

I like him. Gives a Baron Harkonnen vibe while staying in the Iron Kingdoms universe.

Plus the abilities he must have just from the Agonizers!

Tallyman is a crap sculpt. THey seem to confuse lazy sculpting with Nurgle

Greasus would benefit from a better paintjob, but I agree it is done better.

Aha! The guy isn't fat enough, the elephants are not cute enough nor tortured enough, his 'skirt' is not short enough (can't see his knackers) and the tin tray is way too big! Oh, and the paint job is to subdued... More colour!!! RAAAAA!

Sweet Beelzebubs juicey fruits your avatar is hot! Errrm, I mean, her t-shirt is not blue enough, nor wet enough and her ninnies are too big. Oh and she looks like she is smuggling peanuts.

Let's see....I AM in the news and rumours section.....Right?

Where's the MOD when you need him?
