They look good. It would be nice to see a picture of a base of them next to a stand of old warmaster GW skeletons for size comparison purposes.

Good stuff!

I'm sending a stand or two to Bob for comparison. I'll ask him to post some side by side photos. Honestly, I don't think it will be a huge deal - WM stands aren't really 100% in scale with each other anyway. I'm good with "close enough" at this scale.

Frankly, I'd been without interest in Tomb Kings, on all fronts, yet, these desert dwellers are looking pretty neat!

The shiels are removable I guess? Otherwise I don't see way how he would be able to cast them.

They look fine from the pic, a few might go into the depth of the mold but I don't see any undercuts.

Hey guys - I know it's been a long time, but I've got an update! I've received the sculpts back from Bob Naismith, and they look pretty cool. I've attached a few photos from Bob - I tried to take some, but wasn't able to get any good images before I brought them to the caster.

Which brings me to my next bit of news - they're at the caster! The first step is to get some masters/samples cast up. This should take about a week - once I get them and they are approved I'll get some photos up and we move on to pricing and production molds!

Special thanks goes out to Stormwind for financing three additional models for the set!

Great. I would add some ribs on collars and probably some folds/wrinkles on a head-dresses. This would lead to more expressiveness when painting.

Quick update - I go to the caster tomorrow to approve the test casts. I'm going to try to get a set to take photos of.

Really good news!

how many "units" "references" are you planning (one or two)?
