Maybe a Naga?
Asura with Multi-Rifle. She's exclusive to the starter box.
The nipples aren't painted on either, they're actually sculpted on for whatever ridiculous reason.
Not really sure about that mini, looks kind of weird.

Think the Aleph faction have got some of the coolest sculpts in Infinity, this guy is one of my favourites..
And really like this guy, think it's an example of really using terrain as an addition to a miniature sculpt well

While IM not that into his style, you have to give it to Tom Meir for his technical ability. I mean, super good sculptor:

Nocturna models, its roughly 75 mm scale so its pretty friggen big and should be up for pre order now or within the next few days.
They also do a slightly smaller version with legs that's available now.

They were from the Fractured Dimensions KS that ran last year.
The company's blog is here: http://fractureddimensionsnews.blogspot.co.uk/
Some of the miniatures are already for sale in their shop, I assume this will increase after the KS stuff is finished and released: http://fractureddimensions.mybigcommerce.com/
But yes, absolutely lovely miniatures! Can't wait for mine to arrive

For those interested, the mierce kickstarter 2.5 has started and has some spectacular concept art which generally seems to translate well into the minis....

Yay! Two of my sculpts made the list!
If I had to pick I'd put most of Tom Meier's sculpts at the top followed by the Flower Knight by Thomas David.
I wish I could sculpt cloth as well as Tom does. I wish his WW2 models would go up for sale, I'd buy them.

I was lucky enough to grab a limited edition Sgt. Centurius back at the Apocalypse 100 event that GW held many moons ago, I love the model (not my paint-job, he's currently being stripped to a re-paint)
And a more recent favourite is Andreah from Hasslefree (this one is my mini, hence not any where near as well painted as the huge majority of the models linked in this thread!).

I'm mad at Privateer Press right now [for the dozer and dragging on a sucky April fools joke for TWO weeks], but I still love the new cavalry casters:
So cool.

Picked up this miniature at Salute from Hasslefree at the weekend, absolutely love it. Like the minimalism, not too OTT.

A few samurai I really like wouldn't go as far as to say they are the best ever though.
the guy on the very right. Full of character well sculpted and very unique.
Andrea miniatures Takeda Shingen it reminds me of a Japanese painting in minuture form.
Not a samurai but I love this next model being a huge fan of the game it is inspired by / it's ripping off.
Andrea minitures "not" Geralt of Rivia (the witcher)
