With Games Workshop releasing the new Lumineth Realm Lords, we've been given yet another army to make fun of - the cow helmeted hammer elves. I think the models look great, albeit a bit funny. But it got me thinking - What are the ugliest miniatures in the history of Warhammer Miniatures? I did some digging and found quite a bit of miniatures that don't live up to the standard we've learned to expect from Games Workshop today.

I thought the same thing as a lot of dragon heads are done terrible and I thought this was done very well. And then I rewinded and saw the teeth. It's the only thing I can think of that could trigger people. And then it started to annoy me too. So I think if I had the model I would attempt to file them down so that they'd be smaller. But the thing is with all these miniatures they use exaggerated features and something like teeth are one of those spots that might have that. But ugliest is always going to be subjective.

Perhaps it's just me, but so many of the GW miniatures released over the past 3 years or so have been horribly over-engineered. Sure, technically they are great, but there is too much detail, too many ornaments, leaving the miniatures uncustomisable and well, a bit like over-decorated Christmas trees. Perhaps it's just me, but I preferred the miniatures GW were producing a decade ago.

@tiredgardener 4 года назад

@stevewagstaff7250 4 года назад

You seem to be missing some of the Inquisitor minis, as the sculpt quality varied hugely between the characters. Some got amazing sculpts and others were terrible, the assassins were great, as was Eisenhorn. Others were just terrible. I love the story about Nagash, they pushed that mini out early and even the sculptor said he had originally had another couple of months to finish working on it but they just took that version from his area and made it.

the screamer killer was an amazing model for the time, certainly compared to those metal warrior models. but you missed the ugliest tyranid model, the first metal tyrant guard, woof.

While i agree with you on Arielle, you have to remember that most of the stuff from the 80s was actually amazing compared to what else was out there. i remember being enthralled by those models becuase compared to the basic D&D minis they were masters.

@meditationsanddimensions542 4 года назад

People must understand that those miniatures were sculpted by hand, not by 3D softwares. This is why they were imprecise, "weid", and had a bunch of proportions errors. But they were lovely anyway. Today, the miniatures are created with the use of 3D modeling softwares, this is why they look so precise. Imagine, at that time, they had to manually sculpt each spacemarine pose, all from scratch. Now, instead, they can create the model, rig it, and the put the guy in the desired pose. You will not see errors and the proportions are perfectly the same.

I used to paint professionally and competitively, wrote for several magazines and had a huge collection on minis from the mid 70s forward. Later I worked in TV and music as a prop builder and prop master and built for museums, the military and private collections. The difference between those early 70s and mid 90s is like the difference between the 80s and 90s and now. I played 40K when you had the 4 books, one for each faction plus the rules for the Imperium, ah the good old days reeking havoc with a 40,000 point army to choose from.

@gjoenge 4 года назад

Maybe I should do it :) I know alot of player will go, what the hell is that?!? Only thing is that the base would have to be very scenic seeing how huge 130mm would be according to the actual model. But your idea have at least got me thinking here :)

They SURE need to update these berserker...

@zacbru 4 года назад

Don't think they will since Forge World update kit is still available. Also World Eaters is a faction that is so easy to convert with Age of Sigmar models, that i don't know if GW would make much money from a new berserker kit. Selling the current kit is kind of a scam for new players. Current berserkers require conversion to look as good as current Chaos SM kit.

@Epic the overly rounded shape of the model also adds a lot to it's goofiness, I mean, that suit of power armor looks more suited to one of the M&M's mascots than a human being.

@architectofdreams73 3 года назад

Lol, I used to have that Tyranid Carnifex in the thumbnail. I took some rubber cement, made it drip from its mouth, then used a glaze sealant to harden it, giving it the impression of it drooling. I also crafted some skulls and guts out of clay to put on the base, painted them appropriately.

@cliffetters 4 года назад

I got to hang out with Gary Morley (the sculptor of the Old Skool Nagash) once when I was doing some training in Memphis at the GW HQ there (like 2005 or so). And, because I can be shameless at times, I asked him what was up with Nagash because the model looked like nothing else in the undead line. He laughed and told me that he never meant for the Nagash model to see the light of day. He had basically just been futzing around scupting an undead model and that it was mostly just a practice piece. He got called into a design meeting and they were looking at his portfolio (which didn't include the model) and were all "Is this it? Do you have anything else?" To which Morley said "Well, I've got this..." and completely expected to be laughed out of the office. The design team LOVED it. They were all "That's it! That's Nagash!" To which Morley could only respond with a shrug and let them have the model.

@o__o.6212 4 года назад

I heard there's a story behind the Nagash model... apparently, the sculptor wanted Nagash to be withered and corpselike, not skeletal, so he did the model's face badly, hoping they'd make him redo it the way he wanted. However, they accepted it, and that model was the result.

@adamryder8377 4 года назад

I had that cheerleader ork when I was a kid. Ordered some mini's from GW but they were out of stock. They sent a credit note and a bag full of random minis, including that cheerleader ork. I had that dreadnought too. He was ace back in the day, although when the next generation of dreadnoughts came out, he got binned. The only model I still have from my old collection is a Catachan jungle fighter from the early 90s.
