I need these so bad! These will make my life so much easier, individual ratmen! Both for my fantasy stuff, but more importantly for my sci-fi rats. I love the stuff I have made from other sources but they are so hard to cut up it puts me off painting them in mass! I will be buying way more than I need when these come out, way more than enough to completely re-do both armies twice over!
Just a couple of things, I'm not a big fan of the big mounts, I like that they have rat(ish) like faces but dont just look like giant rats (especially as rat mounts at this scale are easy to source!) but the tail is too lizard-y. I'd much more prefer something thin to fit in with the rat theme.
Will there be a more sci-fi looking command model or two? Maybe something with a rocket? I love the feel of the concept art, but I don't think one or two minis with a little tech would look out of place (though It might be stepping on grandmas shoes a little too much!)
I find that the minis I already have look slightly better with the exaggerated pointed ears, but not really an issue either way at this scale!
Actually cant wait to get stuck in to some of these! Been wanting a decent range of small scale ratmen since I first saw epic, and though the one that does already exists, its quality inst very good, and its very basic! This will blow it out the water! Cant wait till I can finally build the rat city Ive always wanted too do!
There is a number of other units which would work great in this scale for this range (and I don't mean from GW) but I'll hold on to them for now, as you probably have some other things in mind, and any thing you don't make, will be great fun to convert this lot in to!
That cart model will be excellent if you can make it take different inserts, will make it really easy to make more from it, and the spare parts will go towards more crazy schemes! A huge monster would be nice though, dragons and the like don't ever fit the rats very well, so they need some kind of huge mutant rat to fill that void!
