The space rats woud make for a cool Clan Skryre army too (cheaper than buying GW jezzails!).

Warsmith is no longer producing truescale marines (cease and desist from GW I believe) - shame because they looked ace.

Does anyone know if the Vermyn are plastic or metal or if possible you can kit bash them with Warhammer Fantasy Skaven?

the above WWI Germaic Goblins are from Black Hat Miniatures they were designed to be used against:




These WWI Halflings can be found here Hasslefree Miniatures

They make me want to get a WWI Imperial Guard Halfling squad to fight against a Grot WWI squad.

Those are some interesting models.

lol I know SO tempted but with everything else I got to do, I don't need another distraction....

But Still SO DAM TEMPTED!!!!!

LGW

AWESOME! Love the Gretchins... ALWAYS!!!

Da Bank-The veer-myn are hard plastic on sprues. I think they look very interesting. I would like to build a squad of them but I definitely have enough other projects on the go!

I worked out I could do a squad of the German Gobbos for £30.00

1x commander
2x NCO
1x battle standard carrier
1x Gobbo medic
2x LMG Gunner
2x LMG Ammo carrier
2x Rifle firing
4x gobbo walking rifle

that give me 15 gobbos, the standard bearer and medic will be officers and NCO's
LMG will be special weapons, it could be a sweet army and if you have the Halfling versions could be a FUN game.... Dam I am talking myself into buying them AARRGGHHHHHH!!!!!

LGW

if you don't want the WWI helms then have a look at these WWI Gobbos
The lads

NCO

LMG

LMG Ammo Carrier

Throwing Grenade

Sniper

HMG Team

Some Cool shit from Raging Heroes

That Ivanka model is ace only the gun/sword/thing is a bit too big imho.

If you are looking for some old school goodness - this might provide some options (very cheap too!). The heads are in sets of three and very cool too!

Forgive the necro and multi-quote.

You are right. Proportions of Corporations soldiers are a little weird. It doesn't matter when it comes to alies but humas should have the right size and proportion, otherwise people will notice. I actually had the same feeling about their elves... They have many interesting ideas (both corporation and elves) but the sculpt is killing it. Corporation models look a little bit stiff and their legs are too thing and too short, I think. But it's still an interesting alternative to GW models - especially price-wise.

I think the issue is less the proportions on the Mantic models, but that we've gotten used to GW's 'Heroic' (grossly deformed) scale. The Corporation models are much, much closer to human proportion. Forgive the hideous paint:

Resin/plastic mix without sprues. Super glue needed, unfortunately.

Useful info s4dfish - thanks!

No such thing as a necro on this forum - so don't worry about that - if you have something good to share then do!

WOW! I can almost hear the Astartes and the Cadian saying at the same time...

"Does this guy makes me look fat and deformed?"

HA! Great pic... I can finally see the difference. Thanks for ruining it for me... now I don't like Cadians anymore. AGGGHHH!!!
