I dig the paint job on the horse the dude meh
Tho he looks much better than the gw vamps so if i palyed VC id prolly get him 🙂
Wow – not bad at all that. Love the pose of the horse and the modelling on the guy himself is fantastic. Reminds me of the Forsaken from WoW lol.
FOR THE FORSAKEN! (ye i played a ud rogue in vanilla wow)
“Power to the Forsaken!” Your forgetfulness is a dissapointment to the Dark Lady.
Utterly breathtaking as usual. Do we know who did the concept art and sculpting yet? Did a write up on Studio McVeys stuff:

also did a few reviews of their stuff as well.
Refreshing to see new take on an undead model.
Vamp counts do tend to be a bit glam rock.
This is really special. Does it come as one piece or does the rider come separate? I would love to convert that rider into a DE character or something.
I have a fair few Studio McVey mini’s and I’d say its 99.99% certain the rider will be an individual piece like Ruby was on her Dinosaur:

Sorry to keep dropping links to my blog but I thought you might find pictures of the unassembled Ruby a useful guide as to what to expect of this mini.
Stunning
Equestrian miniatures usually disappoint me because the modelling of the rider is unconvincing. The Dark Emissary is balanced beautifully on his mount
Beautiful paintjob that made me gasp for air but, the paint ignored, the model leaves me slightly cold. I dislike the sword and his pose is rather stiff. I quite like the face and the horse although the front legs seem slightly short and stubby for that massive equine torso. Might be the angle though.
Beautiful demonic Rider. Nice sword shape.
Could be a “Monty Python” Miniature reading “the joke that kills”. 😀
breathtaking
That will be perfect for my KoW Undead army!
It looks as though the emissary’s legs are too short, a bit like the old whfb plastic cavalry .. nice model otherwise 🙂
