I thought that was an intentional feature.

even if it's intentional, it's still disgustingly ugly.

Yeah, its hideous, but at least its supposed to be hideous. Which could be considered some form of art, even if you don't want to look at it. Methed up marines with vox-amps on their gobs should look like that.

Truly horrific models are the unintentional ones, imo.

Hey, while I do love that model I'll wholly admit it's a goofy relic from the 80s - that's why I love it!

What? I love the old flying castles, so much more interesting than generic boxy aircraft.

As for the Dreads, man the angry washing machine design has to be anyone's list.

How does this thing even walk?



I can't believe we've been saddles with this design for almost 20 years.

Great model, except for the bone beard.

No they're not. It's just the 'Eavy Metal paintjob exaggerating the skin shading that makes them look excessivly muscular, the actual unpainted models are great.

THIS! Though the muscles are a bit overdone, they're not as bad as people make them out to be.

In 6mm that model looks excellent. The reason the Armorcast ones look so... off is because they simply scaled up the Epic 40k versions leaving large dearths of detail at 28mm.

The baneblade does look amazing and also functional, and I live in hope that one day gw reworks the Russ to make it look like a mini baneblade. The derpage of the Russ actually put me off starting a guard army for ages but now you can get the same firepower from a knight crusader for the same points as three russes and less $$. Never mind how the giant gravity stricken robot walks dammit!

I don't quite get the hatred for the Russ. I was always under the impression that they're supposed to be ugly, boxy things. The Imperium has long since forgotten how to make good tanks, so they just crank out these WWII era looking boxes with thick slabs of armor on the front.

If that's the case, I think they nailed that look.
