Today we have some more Raging Heroes miniatures that I will be using for my Adepticon Dark Eldar army. Many of you read my earlier reviews on the latest resin Raging Hereoes, which have been remarkable. It is actually very hard to find the mould lines (if there are any!)
The resin is very solid for figures that are relatively skinny (unlike a certain other company's product). I was also amazed at how interchangeable the weapon arms are.
This is a second squad of Vestals (Wyches) that I have been working on.
You can put the arms into almost any pose. It is pretty ingenious the way that joint is crafted. In many ways, it is more flexible than the multitude of plastic arms from the regular kit.
There is a shardnet/impaler option, which you saw on the other squad. I have the figure on the right set up with an agonizer (also included), but razorflails and gauntlets come with them as well. Neat!
This figure, also from Raging Heroes, will be my Archon.
This one is metal, but all the pieces fit together very easily. Once again, mould lines are hard to find!
I forgot to snap a picture of all the extra bits, like the two alternate heads, weapons, and back piece. It is very customizeable. I will use those extra bits on a regular GW Kabalite warrior to make an Archon. I'll post that later today...
James did you have any trouble with getting the arms to stay on with the metal model? I for some reason can't keep them on her for the life of me. I've done superglue greenstuff even epoxy and squat. I haven't tried a pin yet since the joint is so small.
ReplyDeleteActually, mine was so good I could have put it together without a pin. I did do so , however, using one of our standard paper clips as a pin. It was the exact same size as the original hole in the arms. Best of luck with yours!
DeleteThey will be sexy when you finish with them ;) ...seriously i love Raging Heroes minis
ReplyDeleteThese are so fantastic. We are definitely going to ask them if it's OK to use their miniatures for those painting "how to" DVD's we will be making for our Kickstarter!!
DeleteJim I am charging the camera and have the tapes. I will be ready for the videos. Rich (PS I feel horrible about the car situation)!
DeleteIt sure has been bizarre, that's for sure. I'll try to let you know as soon as possible how all that plays out. If there is some miracle and it is only a lack of trans fluid, that would mean getting into the videos a bit sooner!
DeleteRemember for the painting guides, lighting will be the most important factor, battle reports not so much. Rich
