I actually bought a Landa at the show...
The thing I liked the most was the BoarBoyz... and I know they are only slightly better versions of the plastic models.
I also liked the Steam Gargant.
I prefer the Gargantuan Squiggoth over the Orkesouras (sp?) but it will be nice to have a mixture of big beasts.

Yeah the CI concept sketches looks awsome! As previously mentioned I really like the look of the new Eldar Super Heavies -and the Revenant is growing on me too!
The Steam Gargant is wonderfull -a nice mix between the boxy newer gargants and the rounder old ones.
I must say that I'm also not too happy about the Orkeosaurus. The positioning of the legs, the face and also the massive headgear doesn't quite fit my taste ...But hey; I allready bought 3 Gargantuan Squiggoths from FW so I should be covered in that respect for the near future.
Interesting about the FW Tallarn troops. I wonder how they'll do those.
I second Vanvlak's question about the BFG ships: They look massive. Like some strange mix between the Chaos and Imperial ships. Is it for the Bacca fleet? Or is there some entirely new fleets coming out?
Cheers!

glad you all like the pictures
well I did say a few times if I don't take a few pictures, Legion 4 will take a contract out on me....
it was a bit of a scrum at times, so sometimes I was taking photographs paparazzi style... hold the camera and click the shutter a few times (which is what I did with the Ogre pictures).
I took a 1GB CF card which at my highest quality setting I can get 300 images on, and at a lower setting I can get over 600...
Took some time though to download the images from the card, batch process them and then my FTP process was really slow... so took an age to upload to the website!
I am intending to go through some of them to crop and adjust.

This is an example of what I am going to with the images.
here is the original image reduced in size to 600 pixels wide
here is a 6000 pixel drop of the original image
There is some really nice detail on the model.
I sometimes think SG ought to get FW to cast its models rather than GW.

I would tend to agree, although not all casts are bad. I could have the same problem as Paul where I do order a lot and review stuff not to mention show them of on the forums and I havent had some of the bad luck as others out there with cast problems. I count myself very lucky
