Have to say that the more I see some of these guys (especially the big chaps), the more I am interested in getting a couple. Perhaps in another 50 years when I have finally finished my other projects

Come on, you know that new miniatures acquisition does not abide to this logic. We hoard more and more, regardless of projects or anything else

All right ladies and gentlemen... our last Krull teaser before Friday's "big reveal" should show you what he's all about.
There's more of a background on our website. Enjoy!

Probably bigger than the Wrastler, but they'll fit on a 50x50mm base. That's all I'm saying!

Oh! Hello gorgeous! Aren't you just a pretty little thing?! I love what you did with Krull's head. That is just a divine arrangement. It calls to mind the LotR Balrog with a little bit of Diablo: Lord of Terror for good measure. I highly approve. Good work!

Good news. This is the best time in the hobby. Full of promise. GW lets us down each time and we know it but secretly we're hoping that this is the edition that GW gives us a balanced game that can also be played competitively at tournaments. I'm loving it.

Just wondering when the eta on the Jotun is? Just about to start a norse army so would be eager to get one if it matches my thoughts.
On that note, is everything released going to be a monster or "character"? Do you have any plans to do regular "grunts"?

Hi guys
Glad you like him! Wait until you see the painted version...
Virtruvian XVII,
The Jötunn will be released in the first quarter of 2012, all being well.
Yes, our wargame will include all sorts of troop types - not just monsters and characters. Watch this space!

Love this guys stocky look, his head is much better than I could've hoped for. Shame he has a weedy axe, would've been nicer for another fist dagger type blade.
I can see him charging like a boar or rhino and then goring & slashing away in a frenzy.

I had the exact same thought.
I make no claims on the the accuracy. It was the best I could manage from the little scale silhouette on Krull and the space marine scale shot on the Thirster, thrown in with a hefty amount of photoshop eyeballing. Regardless, I now desperately want to play a megabattle with both of them.

terrainguy,
Scarily enough, you are about right in the size comparisons. We've already had a shot of him next to a Forgeworld Bloodthirster sent to us by Dan, but I think it's prudent not to show that, really...
Earthbeard,
"Weedy axe"? You wouldn't say that if he was coming towards you - it's about twice as big as you are...
Zedmeister,
No Eirik today, I'm afraid, but I have unveiled Maru and Ckaarakk. Eirik tomorrow.
I'll put some images of both Maru and Ckaarakk up here shortly.
Cheers
Rob Automatically Appended Next Post: Okay, here's two more releases for December.
First up, Maru!
Oh, and don't worry about Maru's mouth - Tim "Sausage Fingers" Fisher has managed to stick the teeth/gums on incorrectly, but this is the only model we have available at the moment. The painted version (should be ready in a couple of weeks) will show the correct tooth/gums.
On to Ckaarakk, your friendly neighbourhood Tain of the Tarvax...
Enjoy! Remember, the 16% sale on the Maelstrom Games webstore ends tonight!

Woah!! The minotaur is just AMAZING!!
Maru....hmmm , I don't know , the problem with the teeth makes it harder to appreciatte , but the nose is looking a bit wierd to me for sure, I mean it have too much curve , if you look at the concept by Stephan or even a real dog or cat , its just a straight line from nose to the eyes , can be on a fallen angle , but no curved that way...
Hope this may help :  , more similar angle as Maru  ,
Also the fur looks a bit "stocked" more similar too feathers than a mane , couldn't it be softened a lot? Make it look more like a "whole" mane instead of small groups of hair?
The body looks great.
What do you think?

For the same reasons the Maru model is not working for me:
The bloated nose looks wrong, the mane is of the Trish school and has no resemblance to real fur (both correct in the concept sketch). And the leather strap on the hind leg is a fetish thing without any purpose.
On the Minotaur: My guess from the concept sketch is that the fully armoured Minotaur has his wang hanging unprotected for everyone to see from behind.

Im guessing the strap is to hide the leg join, but i agree with you on all else, except i dont mind the nudity
Why is the Maru's top lip protruding outside the nose?

.
I agree on that too.
Anyway I think all things named are not so difficult to be corrected, and if you Maelstrom guys still in time for this, in my opinion it will make a much better miniature.
Edit : Taking a new look at Maru I just discovered other thing that looks out of a tiger/lion look creature, and its the foots. Specially the legs looks too meaty and thick on the last 2 parts, looks more like a human on 4 legs than the legs of a cat or dog. Even a bit of reptilian/dinosaur on the nails too. Some pictures to illustrate what I'm saying :
Anyway I'm to trying to put down the sculptor or anything , I'm all over constructive whith my opinions , hope no one feel blamed out there
