    Yeah you are right She looks bigger than 28mm from some of the photos. She'll definitely get a Goth Queen makeover from me.

    I am loving all the asymmetry going on in the designs too. Makes me wonder what other crazy looking armies are to come in the future, very exciting!

    just backed a kickstarter for the end of the month so I will probably just stick to Alarielle and box of hunters with the book for now, then add bits later as I go.

    Alarielle's huge. I mean, both in terms of "she's like 12 feet tall" but also "she doesn't skip leg day, does she?"

    Alarielle is currently out of stock on the UK website, for a pre-order model?

    The Tree-nought/Tree-knight seems a bit... odd. If they want to copy the concept, I think it'd still work better if they didn't copy the entire idea, including an exposed driver.

    Otherwise, only real criticism is Alarielle is overdone, a problem they've had with a lot of their large models, where there's "detail" that isn't needed just to claim it has more detail and should be priced higher. Not sure what's going on with her "wings" (they seem to have tried to combined multiple ideas there), and the Beetle has a lot of stuff randomly tossed on that I'd need to take a Dremel tool to correct. I see what could be such an amazing model... But I guess they know their audience, because their audience seems to eat this stuff up, so maybe having cleaner, better models isn't as important as "LOOK AT ALL THIS STUFF ON THE MODEL." (I probably should remember not to approach them from the POV of someone wanting to do "real" models.)
    Critical statements above are not intended to promote negativity or dislike, they are meant to add to a discussion where the positive points have likely already been stated.

    "Alarielle the Everqueen has already proven to be one of the most popular Warhammer models in history." (from AOS fb page)

    Well, thats promising! hopefully that will translate to more female models!

    Not surprised, she's a fairly prominent background figure who has been without a really outstanding model for a long time, and the new one is astoundingly good and not even overly sexualised.
    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

    Certainly better than this monstrosity of a waste opportunity...



    It's like an impressionist take on Sarah Jessica Parker.
