Something people have forgotten; is that for up and coming wargames to take its buisness...then they are gonna have to actually offer armies that people like. I don't like Warmachine or anything because they don't offer a single army that I even remotely like (the quality of most in fact disgusts me).

**Mr Hyena**

Really? That's a shame..

Yeah, I'm sorry, but that looks just too bright and WoW like.

ArbeitsSchu wrote:Bright and WOW like? Are you including the Winterized and heavily weathering machine at the bottom in that? Because if you are then I have to tell you that every piece of real military kit that ever got used in winter is "Bright and WOW-like" as well.

Also, are you not confusing the sculpting/posing of the miniatures with the entirely optional paint schemes? You do know that PP say you can paint your figures any way you like, don't you?

As for "disgust".. need I point you at the lammassu, or the Morris Dancing Chaplain fiasco for actually physically repulsive figures?

insaniak is right. Its the combination of the paint scheme and the proportions of the model that make it look VERY WoW like.

In order to earn my purchase; models have to be pretty grimdark or at least gritty; with slightly realistic proportions. Until a company does that (apart from GW); then my money will go to GW only. Aesthetics can mean alot to people.

**Mr Hyena**

LMAO... GW... Realistic Proportions? Please.

Have you seen Warmachines stuff? It looks more like a cartoon in terms or proportion. It blows all immersion out of the water.

No more of this here please! ~Manchu

**Mr Hyena**

Whatever. But all the anti GW stuff is derailing threads too.
