TheAuldGrump Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 On 4/16/2017 at 2:03 PM, Pingo said: I wouldn't mind seeing cute orcs of both genders, like those found in the art of some more modern games. But that's not what I was asking for. What I object to is the depiction of female orcs as a simple binary: either sexpots or grotesque jokes, and if you object to the grotesque joke it is assumed you want the sexpot and vice versa. Female orcs ought to be capable of being depicted -- as male orcs generally are -- as capable, dangerous, scary tough warriors. Serious opponents, in other words. My all time favorite female orc is the one from the Sensible Shoes Kickstarter - swaggering, axe on shoulder - large and in charge. I love that figure. Reaper also has a female orc pirate that is pretty good. But, at heart, I think that female orcs should be neither sexpots nor grotesques - I want to see some that look like female body builders - warriors, and just as hard as their male counterparts. Though... I am reminded of a She Hulk cover, with She Hulk in a bikini, painted by Julie Bell - and the complaint someone gave that no one could be built like that... only to find out that Julie Bell had used a photograph of herself as the model, and, yes, she is built like that. (Her husband, Boris Vallejo, is just as bad... dammit! fantasy artists are supposed to be skinny dweebs! They should not look like barbarians from the cover of Conan! ) I would love to see more more defined female orcs as well. (I would link to a certain Elfwood image... but Elfwood seems to have gone away. ) The Auld Grump 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valthorn_Illian Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 How about a one off figure, like a Sophie, in honor of the 100 year anniversary of the end of WWI next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the Chronoscope stuff with the Wizard of Oz and would love to see similar things with Wonderland (I ordered Alice already). So far I have Reaper minis only. They are by far my favourite in selection so please keep the great stuff coming! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I'd like to see the Hellborn (Tiefling) selection filled out a little more. I think we have a Rogue(F), Wizard(M), 2xSorceress(F), Paladin(M), and Warrior(F). There's obviously a lot of classes and genders we could use. Likewise, we have a handful of Half Dragons (Dragonborn) figures, (two males and a female IIRC, all fighter types). We could use some more variety in classes, here too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtrmp Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 kobolds, especially rogues and wizards hobgoblins, especially shamans/druids/witches dragon-people, especially spellcasters orcs and goblins riding wolves and swine dwarves, halflings and gnomes riding dogs and ponies knight or wizard riding a giant eagle wizard/witch/etc riding a dragon centaurs, especially knights and spellcasters monks and martial artists in general more hirelings and other not-quite-adventurers, like torchbearers, squires, heralds, and civilian scouts more rat-people (not necessarily wererats) relatively larger mouslings, more or less dwarf-sized (they could be chibi mouslings - but if they were, could we tell the difference?) Final Fantasy-style mages, dragoons, and chocobo-riding knights duck people (more like the Glorantha/Runequest ducks than the Disney ducks) different dog breeds (and maybe a Bones sprue of smaller breeds) undead versions of animals like wolves, horses, bears, big cats, giant bats, and giant ravens (again, maybe smaller skeletal animals could fit on a sprue) dinosaurs that could be used as familiars or companions, like velociraptors, deinonychus, or immature versions of bigger dinos like triceratops or t.rex different sizes of mimics, which aren't necessarily disguised as treasure chests standalone furnishings that could also be used as bases or terrain, like crates, altars, pillars, or tree stumps huge monsters or animals (like dragons, dinosaurs, elephants, treants, or elementals) with flat/clear spaces on their backs so that they can be used as bases or terrain clockwork automatons (not necessarily steampunk, more like the Dwemer machines in Skyrim) sci-fi/fantasy and cyberpunk/fantasy characters - with Starfinder coming out soon, I expect there will be more demand in this sector shortly dullahan (with or without its mount) redcaps, quicklings, and similar evil fey creatures 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Bedlam Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Slender Man could be interesting. I'm really liking the new Space Marine Mouselings... and I find myself wondering precisely who they would mix it up with on the battlefield. Mouseling space orks? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mimics need to be sold two to a blister. Disguised form paired with attack form. So a plain chest that matches the existing mocking beast needs to happen. Then gtrmp's list of plain items could all use a counterpart mocking beast (mimic) form. Pair them in blisters. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are already a female half-orc barbarian (03019), paladin (02946), ranger (02708) and wizard (02831) in Reaper's Dark Heaven line. I'd love to see a rogue, cleric and even some generic fighters. Treiflings are even more underrepresented than the half-orcs so I'd love more of them in any class. There are at least two packs of aquatic familiars (03612 and 02948) already, though. Was there something else you were hoping for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator OneBoot Posted June 8, 2017 Moderator Share Posted June 8, 2017 More fully clothed cat ladies. I can count the number of such available from Reaper on less than one full hand; all of the rest are...not well suited for portraying player characters. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StygianBeach Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I would like to see tribal Gnolls armed with short broad bladed spears (like from the classic TV series Shaka Zulu) and wearing simple Kilts, or Toga like clothing. No armour, just fur and cloth and maybe some beads or necklaces and pouches for decoration. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fey dragons with butterfly looking wings or something with multiple pairs of wings, like a bees fore and hind wings. Not asking for silly looking dragons, but some outside of the box thinking when it comes to design. Such as the paintings by Dragon Lady Art Studio? Her style is very often butterfly+dragon, and her non-insect dragons are somewhat fey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
