SWEET!

Always look out for number one, but don't step in number two.

Can I vote again for Bloodbone Warhammers?  Or have I stuffed the ballot box too much already?

I would like to see Standard-Bearers much like the Dark Tusk one. Even if you just made the Standard poles with the clan animals on top then we could do weapon swaps.

Although there is already a Horned Ones standard I am not a fan and would love to see one like the Dark Tusks,  there is something nice and simple about it.

 I like the idea of seperate standards.

 A standard bearer and musician are some thing that will be done later.I will need to make some money back on what I have had done so far though.

 The Dwarf players are in for a real treat when they see what is in store over the coming months.This all depends on sales though.Expect to see two individuals pretty soon.

 If you know any other dwarf players get them to keep checking the topic for reinforcements.

True that.  Sales are what will encourage more.  There are plenty of examples of internet interest in a model that don't translate into sales, which in turn kills the business.

I'm pretty broke at the moment and have not been buying pewter.  When I have the cash however, I know who it's going to!!   :D

Hey I'm starting to play Dwarf. I could definitely use an impaler crossbow weapons team ;)  I'm having a hard time finding good proxies. I'll be sure to pick some of these up

Scavenger looks good.  It's my favorite Individual in the game, much less my army.   ;D

To be honest, I don't really like it that much . . . It is very well done, and I may be buying it anyways as I attempt to rebuild my Chronopia Dwarves that I had parted with, but it's just not my cup of tea.  I'd like to see the from of the other one as well though.

Looks pretty good Andy.  I think the face, beard, and teeth are spot on.  I might have gone for something a little more dynamic, but this guy's alright.  I'm not used to seeing a hood on my guys, but if he's stalking, it makes sense.

I'd like to see a side pic to see if the armor makes him look fat, in that roly poly GW kinda way. 

Good sculpt and I look forward to the Axemen!

I'm confused.  Are you doing two different Scavenger sculpts?

I'm not quite sure what I think of the new picture/sculpt.  I think I agree with some of the things the other posters have said.  Maybe it will grow on me.  Certainly its the best thing out there that I've seen to use for the Scavenger!  I like the armor, it looks very Chronopia dwarf-ish. 

Looking forward to more pictures!
