Hah, I knew it

And here the Tiger:

That's not her day job

Indeed that's something I had in mind. I might try HLJ first though and see if I can get a proper super-deformed tank.

Maybe you get a bobblehead Obersturmbannführer for free

That there's going to be the name of my new band if I ever start one. Or learn to play an instrument.

**Illumini**

That commissar is awesome. Really pushing the edge a bit too close to stripper, but still really awesome. She's going in my guard army

**Kroothawk**

Commissar and SF Asharah are now in stock and shipping.

Raging Heroes Blog wrote:The Dirty SEVEN

September 17, 2011

Sometimes, bad is not enough…
Sometimes, you need something that truly embodies evil.

That's why we are starting the 7 Deadly Sins collection:
Seven mean and striking characters who embody the worst traits of the human soul.
And yes, you can count on them to burn, to rape and to rampage, well, to make war in the good old evil way.

Above are two of the early designs we've just done for Lust.

So what can we tell you about these despicable guys?
They will be seven knights of Evil, in full armor and heavily armed.
They will come in Fantasy and Sci-Fi versions.
They will come in Heroic and Legendary Sizes so that you can use them as human-sized heroes or as large size Demons.
They'll personalize Lust, Wrath, Gluttony, Pride, Greed, Sloth and Envy.

We are still in a design phase on this project and we will be very happy to incorporate your ideas and suggestions in the sculpts. Would you like some of them to be female characters? Do you already know how you would use them? What kind of designs or ideas or visions would you have for Wrath, Sloth or Gluttony? Let us know.

**plastictrees**

Slightly more excited about this when I wasn't paying attention and thought it was by a different company, I can't say I've loved any of their "look at these two weapons I have!" characters.

Lust appears to be the fantasy equivalent of those guys that hang porn playing cards from their rear view mirrors.

**Amaya**

I'm late to the party, but the Kapitan is fething awesome.

Edit: Bought a Kapitan, hope to see more of your work that is usuable by the Imperium.

**Amaya**

Anyone that has done business with them know how long shipping takes? I'm bored and what something to paint. Hopefully it will get here this week.

**BrookM**

I pre-ordered my darling Kapitan and got her two weeks ago I think. I pre-ordered it back then when she was showcased mind you.

**Kroothawk**

Another concept sketch and appeal for feedback:

Raging Heroes wrote:Wrath is rising

posted October 09, 2011

Here is a work-in-progress concept for one of our 7 Sins characters: Wrath.

There is still some work to be done on this one, mainly on the head.
Wrath will be posed as a warrior running at full charge, swinging his axe.
This version is the Male SciFi version.
There will also be a Fantasy version.

Both SF and Fantasy versions will be available as Heroic (that is, human size) and Legendary (that is, large demon size). This means that you'll be able to choose your Wrath mini as a Hero for one of your unit, or as a big Demon towering on the battlefield. The demon version will come with a set of wings.
Which one would you go for? Heroic? Legendary? Both?

Female Wrath anyone?

Some of you as expressed some interest for a female version of Wrath, as a Fantasy model. But would you be interested in a female SciFi version?

6 other Sins

We'll post other concept of the other Sins characters in the next few days.
In the meantime, you can find Envy and Gluttony in the French magazine Ravage.
You can also see Lust here.

Feedback wanted

As always we are most interested in your feedback, especially on the various versions you would like for these characters.
Please don't hesitate to comment of this post or on the other posts in our blog.

Wrath is going to out skull Khorne Champions!

**Padre**

Very impressed with the concept art for Wrath... could see many uses for him (or her, eventually) indeed...

Love the NOT-KHORNATE-AT-ALL concept for the axe...

This could be a very good series of miniatures...

Padre^.

Well. It's Kind of Khornate. And by "Kind of" I mean "really".

**Grimstonefire**

The feet look too big imo. Or rather, the greaves are too long, they virtually touch the ground!

**Illumini**

Bought the capitan now, couldn't hold back any longer

Does she come with two heads or one head + gasmask?

She comes with one head and 3 gas masks, so she can easily be customized...

**Kroothawk**

Small revenge for the Lammasu head

Here the new project, a cyber wolf:

Raging Heroes wrote:Cyberwolf mount coming soon!

"Conan! What is best in life?"
"To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the deafening howl of your Cyberwolf!!"

Take Conan's word for it, nothing beats a giant Cyberwolf to ride endless frozen wasteland, howl at the moon when you've got the blues, and shred your fiercest opponents to pieces.

Our Cyberwolf will be a giant wolf made to stand on a large base and meant to accommodate a rider on its back. The armor plates have been left blank on the concept but they will be decorated with Celtic ornaments on the final sculpt.

The Cyberwolf should be available in about one month. It should be made of resin with fully customizable posing, allowing you to make each wolf different.

Also some painted pics of the commissar:

**hubcap**

I'm not one to bust on GW.

But the lack of a poseable, non-painfully expensive Thunderwolf model after two years is absolutely baffling. (See also Tervigon, Terrorfex, Harpy.)

Makes no sense.

Anyhoo, that one looks dope. If it's as good as the art, it'll be first Not-A-Thunderwolf that I've actually liked (instead of, "well, that's certainly good enough for the price.").

**Worglock**

The paintjob makes the Commisar chick look even more like she fell out of a Genitorturers show.

**mikhaila**

Just traded emails with the folks at RH and they were very easy to work with. I got my store account set up and have an order already on the way. Very happy to get this line in.

There is a show about torturing Jinn?

**Azazelx**

I was about to get the 2-pack deal with Ivanka and Asharah. Unfortunately with shipping it works out to over $50 for two heroic human-sized figures.

Sure, they're very nice and all, and have a bunch of extras. But they're not $26 nice...

That's be New Zealand $, right ? In Australian $ or US $, the cost (shipping included), is more like $38...

**Azazelx**

Nope, Australian. (which is worth a bit more than US at the moment.)
Ah, I see my mistake. I accidently put the 3-pack of Ivanka into the cart instead of the 2-pack of Ivanka and Asharah.

My fault, all good then. As you say, it's about $39-40 (with exchange fees).

Though from my perspective, I'd have loved to see a triple-pack with Fantasy Asharah added to the other two - she's also good enough to easily fit into almost any sci-fi DE or Chaos army.

Done! We aim to please ;-)
Save 10% on the requested triple-pack: Fantasy Asharah + SF Asharah + Ivanka, supplied as always with our low flat shipping rate!
Remember, this is a Flash Sale that ends this Friday at midnight.

**Boss Salvage**

Seven Deadly Warriors have my attention, great concept art thus far. Definitely more CSM than CSM, which is a lovely thing

- Salvage

**GiraffeX**

The seven sins model concepts are looking really interesting so far.

I also really like the cyber wolf concept art, do you guys have a rough guesstimate when we can expect to see these?

**Pipboy101**

I just received my kaptain mini in today. Fantastic quality! The detail of the model rocks. Now that I have the mini in my hands the larger sword doesn't look out of place. I think the close up picture just made it look too big. But now it fits just right especially since I am going to use her to proxy eIrusk or eSkorcha.

Great work guys!
