That would be a nice model if the waist was two or three times as wide... Just my opinion.

If you assume it was grown up from a captured Tau warrior, the waist size kind of makes sense. Has anyone ever bought from Paulson here? They have some great looking stuff on paper, what's it look like in hand?

I picked up some of his Tyrant sized Boneswords a couple weeks back for my Swarmlord. Took about a week after I paid before they shipped, then they showed up in just a few days. Had a lot of flash, but it cleaned off really quick and easily and they were then top notch. No defects that I saw. I've since ordered two sets of the Warrior sized Boneswords.

As for this model in question... What are the odds of you doing an alternative to the kit of giant power fists? Warmachine Cryx have a model called a Brute Thrall, which is pretty much this but with giant steam powered fists. The problem is that while you can have up to nine of them in one army, they have only a single posed metal fig.

bought blood talons from Paulson not long ago, had excellent communication with me and shipped quickly and arrived nicely protected and packaged, good cast little flash but that's to be expected but was easy to clean and they fit together perfectly! I will definitely buy again

This model reminds me of batman Arkham Asylum. I be DE players would be pleased.

Damn right we are !

God i wish i needed some Grotesques....

That's pretty cool. Good job on making ball joints that aren't super-obvious.

Great figure - have just ordered one for fun. Any plans for any more in the unit?

I purchased the Warrior-sized boneswords. A lot of flash, but as Aduro pointed out, they cleaned up easily. The quality was ok, but it looked like the two halves of the mold were offset a bit. I was able to use about half of them. No warping, though.

It looks like something appropriate for Warmachine/Hordes. The base even furthers this.

Doesn't it!? Like I said, just need a pair of big ol` powerfists and !!!

I picked up two sets of blood talons, 4 of the monster boneswords, 12 of the smaller boneswords and 12 lashwhips............I'm very very pleased.

I like the sounds of that! I'll move my Mechani Thrall plans down the priority list (not that they were That far up to begin with) for awhile then and see what you come up with!

I have ordered the Dread Claws and am ordering three of these (along with a few other things), so I was obviously happy with the first order. My only complaint about Paulson is that they need to come out with more stuff faster!

I ordered boneswords and lashwhips and what really impressed me (aside from the quality) is that they were shipped in clear plastic cases lined with bubble wrap. No way were those going to be damaged in shipping.
Is there any ETA on the Librarian dread conversion? That's the one I'm really drooling over.

I believe the Librarian Dread Conversion was canned over concerns about getting too close to GW's IP. Guess we'll have to hope that the rumored plastic Furioso kit includes bits for a Psyker Dread as well...

Real pity too...

I ordered the Giant Wolf heads, and I love them. They are awesome sculpts with alot of detail, just unfortunately not quite the right size for what I originally planned to use them for. Still very nice sculpts though.

Unfortunately the libby dread isn't going to happen, just no way I can produce it without getting snagged up in IP issues.

A lot of work went into that piece and it was an exspensive comission, I love it and if there was any way I could get it produced it would already be released. I was pretty torn on that one as it's a killer model and it really is the sux not to be able to produce it.

I am debating about having it painted and holding a raffle to give away the original sculpt, but I have to hammer out the details for that (possibly at adepticon?)

Oh, cool, so I'm not the only one who thought that? Anyway, I am strangely attracted to this model. Iunno why - there's nothing I'd really use it for - but I want to get it to paint it. Maybe when I next come into some money.

I'd like one or two, but its going to be after January.

Great looking biofreaks, got any alternate heads, or some arms?

That's epic. It's got Phyrexian (Magic: The Gathering) written all over it.

EDIT: Color!

That thing looks really cool. Might have to get one for the kicks of it.

Looks like a Privateer Press model.

Excellent model. Screamed DE the second I looked at it.

I can see the cryx reference, but even more so I am seeing a strong resemblance to the Neo-Sov Cyclops from Vor: the Maelstrom.

I really love this model...I just wish I had an army it would fit with.


On the libby dread, what about the possibility of creating a bits conversion kit based on your design? I think you can probably slide by with that, considering some of the bits kits I've seen out on the market.

DUDE! LOVE the grotesque... uh... Bio-whatever.
