Mutual consent, did he walk away, did they drop him as they moved more towards digital stuff
or did I just imagine it?
Maybe it's the mantic "Almost" exclusive gig (sorry must be channelling bobtheinquisitor) .

Yep, the humans aren't wowing me (nice, but nothing huge), while the monsters (the grendlr was by far my favorite SW mini) and everything I've heard of zombiecide has me very interested in the game
Not sure if anyone noticed, but Mr. Black is already teasing about their upcoming Ron & Bones kickstarter campaign.
I'm wondering which will drop first.
Same thing happened with Arcadia Quest and Dogs of War (which is actually supposed to be getting ready to ship soon!).
Also way more a fan of the monsters than the humans. If there's a way to skip the humans entirely, and let the monsters duke it out that'd be a lock for me.
Poorly lit photos of my ever- growing collection of completely unrelated models!
Her poor hip , what was she doing for it to be that far out of socket .so far the models are mostly misses to me, and he bios are enough to keep me away.

The Others - 7 Sins
.
The Others is a board game. Not a miniature game. However, as you know, we all love miniatures at Guillotine Games and Studio McVey. We asked Vincent Fontaine (former head of Rackham painting crew and actual Dust Studio member) to paint our beloved monsters. We will showcase them during Gencon and... great news we were able to produce and assemble many of the plastic miniatures that will populate our game. The miniatures in The Others will be pre-assembled and unpainted . Here you can discover two of our 7 deadly sins: Pride and Sloth.
Come at our booth 1829 and check and see what we have prepared for you...

The question is, are those painted resin figures, or painted game figures?
Also, while the designs are very neat, there's nothing that says "pride" or "sloth" about the design. I have no idea which is which, unlike say, the Hell Dorado demons.

Sadly everyone (or most) seem to really like the monsters for this and not the heroes. Maybe they should of shown them off as painted figures instead. When this kicks off I would like to be able to purchase the monsters separately as I'm not liking the heroes at all.

Beautfiul painted figures. But I agree that I have no clue which is Sloth and which is Pride either. But I'm sure it will be clearer as more information is revealed.
I'm also guessing that the first one is pride but that's only because it reminds of the fungus that feeds on adulation from the Futurama episode "Thief of Baghead."
The second one reminds me of Dead Hand from Zelda's the Ocarina of time. Don't know how that fits either sin though.

Right, but its the same kind of BS that lots of abstract art is. You paint some random crap,throw a title on it, and people project the meaning into the piece. You could easily say tentacle head is sloth, everyone would nod and say "I get it". You show the same piece to focus group B, say its pride, and you get the same reaction. The teaser for Lust had nothing that implied lust. Just more of the same "weird monster" that the other 2 have.
I LIKE the designs. I'm definitely getting some to use as obyriths in D&D (pre-humanity demons that the tanari kicked out of the abyss). They're fethed up and alien.
I just dont think there's anything that makes them thematically feel like a demon who is iconic of one of the 7 deadly sins.
Like the Hell Dorado gluttony demon - a cavernous mouth monster that gets fatter as it eats
or Pride, posed like some Adonis, face of marble, admiring itself in a mirror.
