Without being funny in any shape or form, you need to go and spend a lot of time watching near naked woment move. Watch how their hips moves and the general mechanics of the hips, legs and stomach area work together. The hair looks like a wig I am afraid.

2014 will be the year of zero GW purchases. Kneadite instead of GS, no paints or models. 2014 will be the year I finally make the move to military models and away from miniature games.

Is it bad that the first thing I noticed was the cameltoe.

It says bad things about where you look first. But I think it says worse things about the sculpts. When the safe for work bits are bad you shouldn't already be adding in potently NSFW details like that.

Miniature painters have a bad enough reputation, we don't need badly done women like this. If we really want objectified amazons Reaper has us covered. They may have awkward, gratuitous poses but at least they show a greater understanding of anatomy.

this thread has me a bit confused, with all do respect to the OP, i'm not sure what the point of the thread is, are you just showing off your sculpts to try to get some funding interest or are you actually looking for feedback on the models? The feedback here on dakka hasnt been super positive nor has any of the feedback been spoken to. Maybe if some of the feedback or comments where listened to more people would be interested? Models aside i'd also be a bit worried about throwing money at a campaign that goes to the first week of April, and the pledge levels have a ship date of april. Whats the actual ship date projected to be? I cant imagine your going to go from being funded with 3d sculpts to production and shipping out actual models in a matter of weeks. I get most campaigns are always delayed but i cant see any way this would actually delivery on time

Who needs shoulders when you have breasts and cameltoe?

You really need to do yourself a favor Miniforge and follow some of the advice in this thread, your posting updates yet seem to be paying zero attention to the people who are actively trying to give you genuine advice in order to both improve your products and not end up funding a butch of miniatures that won't be producible "if" this funds. Also just to back up what everyone is telling you here, that as a sculptor myself both large scale and miniatures I can safely tell you that those miniatures need serious alterations in order to be cast-able, not even mentioning the anatomical issues that need fixing on top of that.

So in order to be helpful here's my personal advice for both you and your sculptor:

1 - Get your sculptor to buy some amazon miniatures similar to yours, study the size and formation of the details, undercuts, how the miniatures break down into multiple parts, what level of detail is
even possible on such a small scale. Actively tell your sculptor to put a ruler next to the miniature and study how big the face, a hand, jewelry or an eye socket really is in miniature scale, it may help them
better understand the space they have to work with since by the looks of it your sculptor just doesn't understand the scale at all.
2 - Get your sculptor to study other 3D miniature artist's work, learn from them, look what they did right and how your work compares, apply changes as necessary. Here's two great if not two of
the best in the miniature industry: http://hazardousarts.deviantart.com/ and http://hecm.deviantart.com/ you can learn alot just by looking at their work.
3 - Get your sculptor to double check and re-study the anatomy on these figures before he/she commits to the details, having the basic shapes, forms and muscle groups in place
is 80% of any anatomical work you do, details and refining is always secondary, your sculptor seems to be skipping this. You don't have to be a grandest artist ever to understand anatomy, you just
have to take your time and make good use of references.
4 - Your figures currently have ugly anatomy as a result of poor anatomical choices, if the intention of your project is to sell sexy boobie lady's for nerds to buy (as your title suggest) then having decent
well sculpted and attractive feminine forms should be your top priority, not just big titties (you add those later), currently your miniatures fail at the very thing their being made for, think about that for
a little while and plan how to improve it.
5 - Go and look at Raging Heros and Kingdom Deaths work, tons of attractive female miniatures, get inspired and get cracking on improving your stuff.

Hope that helps.

Officially, this thread is about an Indiegogo campaign that wants to send out its products in April!
But then again, it only has gathered $225 of its $4.000 goal so far (but will get the money even if it doesn't reach $4.000), with 17 days to go.

This is flexible funding, so they do indeed keep the money.

(Campaigns that use fixed funding refund you if they don't reach the goal.)

Jesus Christ. On one hand, I'm having a difficult time believing OP could be serious about that. On the other, I'm having a harder time believing people actually pledged for this.

Well if you look only three people have actually pledged anything to their campaign, one of which pledged $150 for the $225 total they currently have. So its hardly getting much traction.
