wtwest Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 How about some non-goatmen beastmen. I would suggest that Jason Weibe sculpt them. Jason has a knack for animal-man minis. As I mentioned earlier, I'd love to get my hands on both his Rhino and Elephant Beastmen. Never give up, never surrender!!!!!!! WTWest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtwest Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 I forgot to mention, I'd really really like a Warlord Sophie! Not sure about a sculptor, but Werner Klocke has done a nice job sculpting her in the past. Having purchased some several different Spyglass Succubus's, I need a Reaper Sophie to go along with my miniature collecting. So how about it Reaper? As you can tell, there would surely be an interest, after reading some other posts on a related subject. WTWest Heck with lurking, I've been in the dark for to long...................

Moderator Froggy the Great Posted May 26, 2004 Moderator Share Posted May 26, 2004 I'd like to see a little mummy familiar for the next Warlord Familiars pack. Little, cute, running way too fast, trying unsuccessfully to wield an overlarge khopesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlasherDan Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 I would like to see a few mage fighters. Maybe wearing a Chain Shirt with a sword and a staff or something along those lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laralu510 Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 Furniture. That would be great. I have seen alters w. candlesticks,devices of torture, and nicknacks.. but actuall furniture (chairs, table, beds!) would be so cute! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisler Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 I'd like to see a little mummy familiar for the next Warlord Familiars pack. Little, cute, running way too fast, trying unsuccessfully to wield an overlarge khopesh. Sorry, been done already. From Crocodile in their releases this week.

Bill_Adcock Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 A giant venus flytrap with lashing, thorny vine-tentacles, with chewed-through plate armor scattered around it. More monks (I'm dyin' for that one in the current set of greens to be released! He's holding a pair of kamas, which are my favorite martial arts weapons). Maybe one "in the air," on a pole like the Dire Bat, posed as if he's doing a flying back flip, holding a sword in each hand. And a crouching monk holding shurikens in a throwing sort of stance.

Painfully Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 If anybody has seen the Hasslefree mini of the female paladin with her hands in prayer, I thought that was a very different, and very cool pose. So, Reaper should do a classic pose of a full armored knight, helmet tucked under one arm, and kneeling as though to receive a knighthood from a priest. It's a classic pose, and deserves to be done well. ---------- I'd also like to see a wizard with a flaming ball in their hand, vs the boring crystal ball that just gets stared at, or looks out of place. Maybe people can sculpt flames easily, but sculpting flames is not something I want to spend my time on when I could be painting. Plus, the poses desirable for a wizard with a fireball are much different than the old men who are trying to look wise and knowledgeable. ---------- I'd like to see some variation to the body types of warriors. Big, barrel-chested warriors that don't have to look like body builders, and women that actually look STRONG, instead of pretending to be barbie dolls that carry swords. ---------- I know I've asked for this before, but...I still need some swamp creatures. Crocodiles or some crocodile-like creatures would be cool. Gimme big, nasty, pointy teeth! ---------- I'd like to see a stag with many pointy tips on his horns. It might be a bit more complex than is feasable to cast, but I know if it can be done, the Reaper folks will find a way! Head piece detachable, so I could make him into a wall plaque as an option too. The stag is also an impotant figure in "the hunt" from mythology, although I cannot recall which one right this moment, and now my brain is itching.

michel Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 does anyone miss some figures with the good old chainmail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Porsenna Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 does anyone miss some figures with the good old chainmail? Ah, I love painting mail! For some reason well sculpted mail is just fun for me to paint. It does seem like there's fewer new figures on the market just wearing a mail shirt... Damon.

michel Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 a friend of mine (an amateur sculptor) says that it's because they are more difficult to render than plate...so it's seems this is the plate era...but waht about encumbrance of my poor character??? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiritual_exorcist Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 Agreed Reaper needs more models that can be used to represent low level characters. I like the Reaper models being sculpted, but for the most part they really represent mid to high level characters. I'm hoping a good number of the troops being produced for the Warlord line might serve this purpose well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping a good number of the troops being produced for the Warlord line might serve this purpose well. that's what I hoped for when looking at Rackham range... the problem is that troopers look like...well...troopers...so they are very different from what I suppose an adventurer shoold look like: for example, a trooper usually holds a long polearm, has a sort of standardized uniform, no backpack, no torches, no cloak & hood... what do you think about it?

spiritual_exorcist Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 I would tend to agree with you. But while my scultping abilities are limited, I think I could probably do enough work with green stuff to turn at least 1 or two troopers from each type into a model that could be used as a PC or a standard Warlord troop model.

CripDyke Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 people have talked about wanting Mimics before. I have a mimic bed and a mimic chest but.... No one that I know of has ever done the Mimic as a Wooden Gazeebo!! How bout that?? People who wanted the Gazeebo for a laugh as well as mimic fans might buy it....
