Well after going for a long car ride today and looking through the GW catalogue 2010 for an extensive amount of time I came to the conclusion that the most vilest, disturbing, sickest miniature in WHFB is definitely the Vampire Counts Corpse Cart.
I have no affiliation with them. I own only a small group of beastmen minis, but whenever I look at that model it creeps me out. I see it and it remind me of the holocaust or some gak. All the decrepid, decaying bodies piled up, eyes open staring at nothing. Creepy man. Cept ts even worse cuz there is some guy/demon riding the effing thing.
So ya I don't think there is a model than can compete with this level of macabre!
*This is just an observation. Does anyone agree with me or is there something more vile than this in your opinion?

You have broched a subject that has been trod many times.
Sadly you are wrong.
Brace yourself for the most disturbing models GW has ever made.

he is the one model that actually had the sculptor personally apologize for how bad it was.
BTW, thats a 40mm he's on. Kinda disturbing how large and attention getting his ugliness can be.

Orc and Ogre Cheerleaders. Disturbing is soooo many ways.
its so bad that GW didn't even put the painted Orc cheerleader up, just the unpainted photo.

I've always seen it as more like the dead carts that made their way round cities when the Black Death struck - makes sense for an army of the undead to me...

You're spot on. That was the inspiration. But in true Warhammer fashion, they're been magicised.

possably, but the grinning skull face is a little OTT.
Considering Nagash's fluff, you think he would look like a dread overlord of the undead and not like he should be kicking around with Harliquins.

Personally, the thing I dislike about that Nagash is the amount of skulls. I know it's GW's thing, but even outside of the jokeface that got approved, the skull quota is ridiculous.

He does have more skulls then an imperial cathedral.
You could outfit an entire marine chapter with his skulls.

The pajama party is a burden on my soul, especially knowing what the previous models looked like in all their puffy sleeved glory. And yes, the one on the right has no shoes...

They are historically accurate. A few months of campaigning can really mess up a uniform.

They never said they were state troops for a rich province. Shoes? Pfft, not required equipment. They're probably going to be walking over grass anyway.
High Elf Spearmen are disturbing, look at the guy on the left, HIS INDEX FINGER IS THICKER THAN HIS NECK!

Yes the cart they drew around in england during the good ole' plague days. That is what it looks like. Very creepy and very real. Its just sickening to imagine. I love Vampire counts soo much. They are soo damn cool!

The cart is a pretty decent unit too. I painted on up a while ago, used every dead flesh color I could find.

I suppose it isn't any comfort that there actually are spiders that large in the world?

There used to be 6 feet tall wood lice and the like.
I hate spiders too, but that Arachnarok, I dunno it just looks more like some kind of crustatceon, maybe it's just the lack of hairyness, but still looks crablike to me
