viktorian vets... well the name viktor will get you away with always in a russian setting...

Dr H wrote:They're pretty cool models though. Nothing wrong with tall women. Obviously being tall runs in the family. Nice colour choices for them.

Yeah, they are all tall women for sure, makes you wonder what their Dad was like?

Viktor is appropriate yes.

I did show them when they arrived with a very nasty Ork Boss. But now they are assembled and paint as you can see is started. Teona needs blonde hair, Olga is a Redhead and Kat is white haired

I'm still not a fan of the kommisarettes, they are good, but I'm skipping their kickstarter because they just aren't drawing me enough.

Still waiting on the mechas grin.

They did show the troopers, and I likey them, just no cash to KS for anybody, I also see the new Capitol troopers as a good male match for the Kurganova troops so a mix of the two for a kind of Co-Ed force/

well if I ever stumble over one of the commisarettes then I will get me one...eventually^^...

Don't forget my fluff about Teona, the Ice Queen of whirling death

argh... I need to get my fluff of all my friends in line^^... I have postponed to read everything for quite some time now... I guess that´s what holidays are meant for then, eh?^^

I joined it after seeing some early renders, but now they are talking of adjusting them, they were going for a more heroic scale rather than their usual slim tall look which for me was great.

However most people expected them to be more like their usual range and so were unhappy and voiced this, so now it's a bit in the air as to what is happening which is a real shame.

So depending on your preference of scale i would wait to see which route they take before committing.

See, that's the other reason I'm staying out of it. They not have their act together. They talked about the kickstarter six months ago if not more saying they were ready, but waiting on getting a bank account set up. Everyone on here voiced what they wanted, and hey said were good still waiting on the bank account. more waiting, oh were doing three ks, more junk, they just seem unprepared/clueless. Now they're in the middle and thinking of changing scale? I can't figure them out. Not going to try either.

To be fair I think the issue was that a lot of people joined initially expecting the models to fit their original format, however they were heading towards a model that would fit in with the mass market scale.

Then all the backers kicked of after seeing the renders as they were aiming more towards the heroic market, so they crumbled to peer pressure and are looking for a fair alternative.

Which to be fair is a good thing as at least they are listing to the backers, however I joined due to the renders being shown so now I feel I have been cheated.

I think they should have done some pre launch research as they had plenty of time to do so, at least that way every one would have known the scale up front.

I realize, now, what all of your tanks are missing. I'd really like everything to be washed in Secret Weapons Miniatures' "Soft Body Black", straight out of the bottle.

--B.

Well, I have a lack of funds so no more washes except what I can afford at the moment when I do get some.

Yeah the gals they are experimenting with some in between their uber leggy scale, and the heroic, as long as they do not end up like female cadians I am okay as I also want to mix them with the MC/WZ Capitol minis that just got shown off recently

You can stretch to a wash

I hope they aim towards the Escher scale myself that way they should blend with most ranges.

Hmm your tanks with a wash would look good. I support this idea. Legs.. i like legs dont you?

Legs are good, and my finished tanks did get washed. am just about out, so I have had to wash them, and then watched as the washe does not show as much under the flash as it used to having thinned it to stretch it our. I need to see if they are loading me money or not.

Found more of my old Kommissars

You'd need to order a 55 gallon drum from secret weapon to wash all your tanks

Industrial grade amounts of the wash eh? I now have 7Kommissars.

Shaso could lays do the parade of strength at he nearest car wash, clean off the mud while blocking the traffic on a beautiful day. You just better make sure the car wash allows dualies first.

@Theo: Nah, too many peeps felt the models too sterile with the showroom finish, hence the MUD.

@Vik: Well, for that, some teasers then!

It's never a good thing when I giant mecha is smiling. Usually means something just went boom, or is about to , either way it looks great.

Kommissar Popov, he prefers keeping his hands clean when he dispenses punishments, so just his bolt Pistol and crop, if he could, he would do so from a cyber-horse mount than on foot.

Not what any trooper wishes to see in his direction! Especially with Poppin' Popov around.

Now Raging heroes makes fantasy versions of the sisters in case you want to use them as heroes in Warhammer or other games set in an era where blackpowder guns are high tech, and I really wish the Kommissar version came with dual pistols as well as


Now for the cheeky Katarina Zvedvedova, younger sister and also Kommissar due to the Officer status of their parents when they died during a campaign. With gasmask at the hip, power sword over her shoulder and her tongue out, she aims and fires her Makarov M-49 pistol firing .50cal bolts. Due to her penchant for firing in volume, and her white hair, she is also known as "The Blizzard"

Here is the Oldest of the Zvedvedova Sisters, Olga the Red, named for her fiery tresses which she has flowing and is just as much a Kommissar as anyone else can be. Much more collected and calculating as a older sibling is expected to be to watch over her sisters growing up, Olga had a natural talent for watching over and spotting her charges about to violate the many rules of the Military, and has been very good at keeping the soldiers in line.
Here she has her power sword off and belted, and is surveying the field for transgressors or enemies, holding her own Makarov M-49 pistol,

Normally on a ship, or in a relaxed zone, she might instead hold her smoke holder and a Lho stick instead of the M-49

And now, Kommissar Teona Zvedvedova, who first made her presence known alongside Father Orlova and Vasily in the fluff, another hero of the Konfederation, and also able to go ice cold, hence "Ice Queen" when in combat, and starts her ballet of death with pistol and sword,,,power sword that is. Unlike her sisters, Teona is also much stronger so sports the more massive Makarov M-55 drum fed pistol firing .50cal bolts and she snaps off rounds in combat with it as if it were part of her arm.

Rasholov is actually my Yarrick mini tbh

Like Theo said, smiling heavily armed walker is not bringing happy times your way!!

Ah, thanks, and to think, I still have a lot left to do to finish the Kommissars!

holy gak.... that walker is freaking creepy... the "face" reminds me way too much of aliens... creepy fether...!

the commissars looks very cool... and I wonder if you got some brokerage for showing the raging heros stuff so cool here... eventually I need to get them all... and that fantasy lady too... definatly conversion potential for 40k there!...

commissars and dreadnoughts are my additction in secret... I try to get what I can ... I have a gaunt by the way of which I am rather fond and proud *punches the air*

Well, I have yet to do the black paint for the eyes of the walker, but that smile is unsettling eh?

Thankis, once they have the fine details painted you will see Olgas' monocle, and Kat's sticking out tongue as she shoots like a boss. But I did do Teona as described in the stories.
Teona=Blonde\
Olga=redhead
Katarina=white

Gaunts, especially now the metal ones are Out of Prints, so they are Gold amongst the collectors of such minis, them and the one GW female commissar.

my gaunt model I got extra cheap... I was rather lucky then...and that real oop female commissar is also on my to get list... together with the female catachan trooper...

Oh yeah, the female catachan with the support weapon. Another good one

So, for this new update, the paint of the eyes on the walker, and the targeters and scanners are done. Now, less or more creepy faced?
