Hellcome aboard !

Welcome to this blog over my passion of collecting, constructing and painting miniatures and figures, for wargames, roleplay or showcase, including Warhammer 40K Tyranids, Chaos, Daemons, Cthulhu Mythos, and also various mechas like Gundam & Super Robots, etc...

Privateer Press is slowly unveiling models for their upcoming Kaiju table game Monsterpocalypse. This time a new kind of Cthulhu (the same as previous shown but this one has legs), a kind of Cthulhu spawn, and a Tripod from War of the Worlds. This games is more and more appealing to me as it features big robots, giant monsters, aliens, and ... of course, Cthulhu :oE

Here are the pics :

The highly expected Codex Daemon is to be released in May by Games Workshop. Nearly all the new models have been unveiled @ Games Days, so here's a summary of what to expect:
Here's the Soulgrinder, a new version of the Defiler, a the very good surprise of the bunch :

It's a plastic kit which comes with mainly Slaanesh and Khorne options.

Then some lesser daemon are redone :

Bloodletters, Daemonettes, Plaguebearers, fleshounds of Khorne, Beasts of Nurgle, Fiends of Slaanesh

We also have a new kind of demon, between Daemon Princes and lesser Daemons, called Daemon Heralds. Here they are :
The Masque of Slaanesh, Epidemius of Nurgle, Skulltaker of Khorne. I don't know you, but I was disappointed with those releases, mainly by the lack of new greater daemons and daemon princes, but also by the designs of the heralds, who are just chaos champions mixed with lesser daemons, quite uninspired.The greater daemons only get new packages ! I don't understand GW's policy of NOT making a plastic daemon prince and/or greater daemons. They would sell a lot of them, as for the Carnifex kit, because it'd be much simpler to convert them, I wonder why GW did choose this low profile attitude when renewing the daemons range. All lesser daemons are cool though, they are quite a step back to the early glory days of Realms of Chaos, I like that. Another reflection is that the minis don't seem so well painted, check the Fleshhounds for example. Other miniatures companies present way better painted minis now...

After months of suspense, the wait is finally over, the mysterious monster of the successful Cloverfield movie is unveiled. There had been many rumours that it's be Lovecraft related, or that it was even the Great Cthulhu, but no, it's a brand new design. I wouldn't say original, as it's just a big hunched quadruped, I have to say I'm a bit disappointed with it. 
Anyway, it's a 14 inch figure with 70 articulation points, it roars like in the movie, you have two heads, the Liberty statue head and 10 parasites, so we may say you have for your money as it's sold 99 $ (65 EUR)...

I think I'll wait for a smaller version, as I don't have too much place for this one :)

While surfing around, my mouse was caught on a the website of a new maker of nightmare miniatures. This one is called Ultraforge, a small company  based in Canada, and run by a couple of young nice people, Sophia and Jeremy. But the most interesting thing is that they have a rare talent that should appeal to many wargamers and collectors of beautifully crafted fantasy miniatures. The details seem amazing, but also the ideas a great and these minis really seem to have a soul and style.

click here : http://www.ultraforgeminiatures.com and check their dryad/treewoman if you want to see wat i mean with inspiration and style...

Here are some WIP shots of their upcoming demons, that's of course what caught my eyes first :)

There are two demons of pestilence (and plague), one of war (Khorne anyone ?) and one of desire (who said Slaanesh ???). These should come out in a few weeks or months with wings options and maybe alternate heads. They should fit on 50x50 mm bases and tower on tabletops, they are cast in resin, price expected in the 60-80 $ range. Which is quite cheap considered that Ultraforge is more in the scope of Forgeworld than your usual GW.

 

Now I beg for a Cthulhu, please Sophie ;)
