Don't know anything about the thing in-game, but I like it because it looks dangerous.Tinweaselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04293563894232746690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6512361133352726489.post-91527056058247225942010-05-07T22:49:40.349-04:002010-05-07T22:49:40.349-04:00The hand has always bothered me but I do love the ...The hand has always bothered me but I do love the line. As for the posture variation, I always attributed it to making the figure feel alien. <br /><br />The Avatar is quite beastly and the Caskuda as well. Both have a little problem with making it onto a base properly.

Still a cool figure and fun to paint, though. She's positively dainty compared to Chaos Marines. If I go back out to the store where I found they sell these, maybe I'll pick up one of the "Avatar" models from the same company - that one was cool-looking, too.<br /><br />Yeah, I know nothing about the fluff for this one other than that she is a shapeshifting assassin with a monofilament blade. She's from the Infinity game line by Corvus Belli - it's been out about a year or so, and the one store I mentioned has a ton of figures but is about an hour away from my house.Tinweaselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04293563894232746690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6512361133352726489.post-20535408771562358762010-05-07T13:49:09.648-04:002010-05-07T13:49:09.648-04:00The shading's turning out quite nicely--I'...The shading's turning out quite nicely--I'd say the paint job is coming together amazingly well. My only complaints would be about the sculpt itself. The upper torso (armor?) and hand on the thight have weird proportions that I never noticed until it got to this stage of painting. I'm surprised because the bare metal figure looked awesome to me.<br /><br />Perhaps it's just fluff from the game making it's way into the model, though? What game did you say this was from?Warhammer39999https://www.blogger.com/profile/14530221677814466120noreply@blogger.com
