So far, all we know is that it is a female authorized bounty hunter(called it!) that was seen in concept art form within a newspaper article about Corvus Belli a few weeks ago.
Here is the silhouette that we have, along with her name which is "Miranda Ashcroft":
Wonderful stuff.. now all that remains is to see which retailers are taking part in this pre-order scheme (I know Wayland Games did here in the UK with the last one)
'Infinity Week' starting on Beasts of War this week, should be interesting. Apparently they have a lot of stuff planned for it.
I hear they're going to be introducing the art book, looking through faction by faction at the art that didn't make the cut... concepts, design sketches etc..

Bostria has stated in the Spanish forum that the books contain designs of units still not available (I think he says this in the first video too) and also says that Ms Ashcroft is as seen in the pics, despite the concept showing a diversity of weapons, the mini only includes the CC one.
Edit: also, the mini:

They're going to be showing us art that didn't make the cut?!?
I hope some clever soul will figure out a way of presenting these things later on, as there's bound to be more than a few that we'll wish DID make the cut!

I fixed your typo.

The arm looks.. strange, like it is out of jelly. They should've stick to the artwork, which I would prefer pretty often (even though the Infinity figures are most often great!). But hey, no bare middriff
She looks nice I think.. dynamic poses are always going to be a little bit hit or miss, but I'm glad that CB tries them (most of the time). I've already seen one photoshopping version of her pole dancing, took all of 3-4 hours for someone to come up with that
Still early in the week, but I know in the past when they do the discounted armies their business gets crushed with orders.

To get the ball rolling today we have a wallpaper for the Ariadna.
The wallpapers are available in two sizes which will look great on any desktop or tablet like the iPad.
I'm going to change my wallpaper each day of the week with this (I'm so sad haha! )
Yes, but it's nice to have that high resolution if you have a big monitor.
Some interesting tit-bits in the BoW coverage so far....(Which by the way is really worth watching, especially the 2nd video with Carlos talking about the different design elements that have gone into the miniatures, and the philosophy behind them and the development of technology. )
- BoW is going to have an exclusive miniature reveal this coming Saturday..
- The Morats home world is an ice planet (the one pictured on the cover), and the one character is indeed the Oznat (the little beasties are Hungries - not Nids as I originally thought ) - they chose that picture in the end apparently because they liked the composition and style of it (must have been a hard choice to make!)
- the artwork they are showing this week is not actually going to be in the book.
Book is now up for pre-order on Wayland Games, given pride of place on their front page just as it should be!
