I just purchased the GW Garden of Morr terrain piece, and I am pretty disappointed in the sharpness of the details. It basically looks like some of the old efforts of WGF or Mantic Basilean Men at Arms level or detail (the roses or flowers are just little plastic blobs on the wall, melty looking skulls, building details are very shallow, gargoyles are just little blobs with barely defined heads, etc.) I would just like to know if the detail is pretty soft on all of the Garden of Morr sets or if I just got a bad one.

Looking at my GW Maurader Horsemen sprue, the difference in detail sharpness is very apparent.

Do I just call up GW and tell them I got a bad set or something?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Do you have pics so we can see?

Okay, looking at my Garden of Morr, I won't cosider the Gargoyles blobs of plastic but they're not sharply detailed. I reckon they have to work with undercuts and for it to stay in one pice as opposed to a few tiny pieces, some detail sacrifice has been made.

Some of the skulls have extra plastic on the eye sockets, but once painted up I couldn't see the difference when viewed from a not-too-closeup distance. I wouldn't call them melty-looking. The building details are shallow but I wouldn't call them soft, either.
