Neomics: Chaos / Mutant preview

Hello,

we are currently working on a chaos team and a chaos pact team. Here are some WIPs.

The miniatures are fully modular to let you build up your team with maximum individuality, regarding mutations etc. So what you see on the following pics are examples of combinations of available items.
All minis shown are WIPs, some don’t have pads yet, visible joints will be hidden of course, etc.
Also there will be more heads, arms, mutations, poses/base models. These are just examples to show you the idea and style.

Release of a chaos team and a chaos pact team is planned for first quarter of 2010.

Now to the pictures. Let’s start with some Beastmen:

Image

And with a more dynamic pose:

Image

If you prefer more human like heads for your Beastmen:

Image

With helmet:

Image

Weird head:

Image

Now let’s get a little mutated - tentacles e.g. (one of several available types of tentacles):

Image

Claws:

Image

Mutation extreme – e.g. Chaos Warrior (WIP missing pads e.g.) with Claw and tentacles:

Image


Now to marauders. Let’s start with a completely unspectacular one (WIP, missing lots of equipment, pads etc.)

Image

Same model with two arms:

Image

Same with big hand:

Image

Similar model / different head with Claws:

Image

Now different model with a shy tentacle:

Image

Now similar one getting two heads:

Image

Or different pose with two heads and big hand:

Image


As said, WIP and example combinations. I hope you like them so far. Please let me know what you think.


Cheers
Lennart

ah! finally someone notice that ;)
he's the one supposed to use the claws, but then the pics with his original arms aren't posted, I guess I did really too many pics and it was hard to choose :lol:

Hi Lennart!
To be honest, I don't like the armour parts at this miniatures. The edges are not sharp and that is why they look a bit chunky to me. (straight in comparison to your goblins)
Further the faces of the beastmen are (in my opinion) too cute. Maybe they would look better rough around the edges.

If these points are the WIP-part you spoken to, the offered criticism is sure indiffernt.

Best regards,
Lukas

Another very good job, I think the claws and the other mutations are great. Well done.

I really like them too. They are really well sculpted according to me (to be honest, I generally like Sylvain's styl so that's not surprising). Well, what's annoying me is that I have already a classic chaos painted team so I would buy your minis for a Chaos Pact Team. But I like to have coherent minis for a same team : do you plan to sculpt models for other Chaos Pact players than marauders ? ????

Some things I love (tentacles, tentacle head, helmets etc.) but I feel there are some weak bits.

I agree with the need for sharper armour pieces, as well as a few tweaks here and there on areas such as nipples, which are worryingly huge blobs.

Beyond that I feel that the beastman heads are a little overdone in goat form, I'd prefer something a little more fun, boars for instance with large tusks instead of horns.

i don't like the heads of the beastman.. and all the bodies are a bit strange..

mutations (tentacles, tongues, big hand, claws.twoheaded...) and marauders faces are great, instead

I think they look great and i am sure i will have some beastmen for my chaos team. I think the only thing i do not like is the first two beasts heads, i think they need a little more to them but i am not sure what. Maybe what someone else said and make them more boar like.

Great concept with the interchangable parts, I love the giant tongue, but the heads are probably too 'cartooney' for me. I'd probably use GW beast heads if I buy these.

Also the nipples look way too big.

Good work though.

Like the idea - some good, some bad (I like the heads though :roll: :lol: ).


Might want to be careful calling them Chaos Pact, what with Grandma's lawyers being all twitchy...
