Awh gak, my opinion on a model I think is ugly is incorrect. I guess I better go back to studying what makes something look good or like a [see forum posting rules] with legs.

I'm aware the thread says worst sculpted, but no one seems to be following the literal meaning of the title

Hate the entire thing, looks out of place in an Imperial army to me. The pilot is ridiculously unprotected (Terminator armour fails to protect the face when no helmet is equipped) and the whole mecha-suit thing was already fulfilled by the Dreadnought.

HANDS DOWN WORST MODEL AVAILABLE!!

Marbo...

Its so bad, people dont buy it they just make their own LoL

So so very true! I don't know of any IG player who uses the GW Marbo; they've all made/kit-bashed one of their own...me included!

I use one of the IG "Vasquez" models for my Marbo

As to terrible models... really pick and choose from the Sisters line... some of our visual design ugh... I really like the Repentia despite all the crap they get for being bondage smut in model form, but the Mistress of Repentance, the Dialogous, and several others out of the SoB range. *shudder*

Sisters of Battle... Most of them...

Welcome to the anime cliche scene Plum... unfortunately it was kinda innevitable. There was a demand and GW provided... unfortunately FW does better looking ones imo... what worries me is that its sorta leaking into other armies, the dreadknight, the penitent engine, FWs Contemptor dreads...

Seeing 40k as a ridiculous clash of various tropes in an endless war, I kind of like anime thrown in the mix. Those tropes/ ripoffs usualy recieve an grimdark/ awesome/ badass treatment though and for me often end up better than the source material. Can't say that about Tau sadly, firewarriors look ok but that's about it and there is no grimdark at all in Tau design.

There are even a few anime movies I really dig like Neon Genesis Evangelion for example, still XV8 is bad like closer to general Daimos or other kids anime sold to cheap TV channnels rather than any serious anime series and the latter btw often contain a lot more grimdark than Tau, what a shame GW. Yep FW Tau suits look better but current GW plasticCrisis suit is an abomination, you have to bath it in acetone and cut with large IKEA knife to make it resemble something meant to fight in only war universe.

**Decio**

Also, I actually think the Avatar of Khaine is badly sculpted for the flaming epic Eldar War God piece that it is supposed to be.

The other models I almost put up here had awkward poses or proportions, such as the Incubi, Grotesques, Sicarius, the Space Marines and Chaos Space Marines

I was kinda frustrated when I put a CSM next to a Cadian and the Cadian was taller. But then I converted everything.

You sir, need to chill out. I disagreed with your stance on a cool model.

I've been away from this for awhile, so my opinion doesn't really matter, but I have always disliked the Necron range. Just something about it I couldn't stand.
