Persians!

No word yet on whether or not these Persians have a clandestine nuclear program...

Tallarn?!

That was one thought I had, at least the heads on Cadians with some sort of GS smock. Or maybe on the new Empire archers.

Oh and if you don't know Wargames Factory only makes multipart plastic sprues.

It's odd how sci-fi/fantasy modeling/TTGs seem to be incredibly close to, and yet a million miles from the historical scene. I really have no grasp of how many historical mini collecters/gamers there are around.

A lot, I guess, or has plastic production cost only recently come down to levels where it makes sense.

Looks like they've got a somewhat better grasp on naturally hanging cloth this time around. Oh, and nice to see they can definitely do human faces, pity it looks like they have a flat neck joint.

I think these have more IG potential than the zulus, mostly due to the fact that cloth is much easier to Green Stuff than skin. The problem is that Lasguns are just too big on wargames factory stuff unfortunately, due to the more realistic scale. A lasgun 25% smaller would open up many, many conversion possibilities with various historical plastics out there. Maybe I should work on that.

I might get some for use as "counts as" Ungors in my beasts of chaos cult army.
