this is another miniatures company whos products are done no favors by the box art. to be brutaly honest the painted box art makes me instantly say "no purchase". Seeing these pictures of the raw-resin the sculpt looks much, much better and i am now interested in buying a few of their pieces.
I have been burned too many times by seeing an awesome painted figure and getting the piece in my hands just to find a bad sculpt that someone had spent a lot of time painting. the opposite is also true... seeing a badly painted figure but finding the raw sculpt to be good, its just that i don't want to chance ordering badly painted figures on the off chance that the sculpt is a gem. This usually only happens at shows where i can pull the figure out of the box to look at it.

manufacturers should ALWAYS post the raw sculpts if they want to be honest with their customers. Their is always a chance that they are loosing sales form poor paint jobs as well.

Hi Aaron,

Interesting insight. I stopped painting my reviews for this reason - showcase the model, not my ability to assemble and paint. Thanks for the input.
