HiTech Miniatures Bow Before The Covenant’s Protox

January 8, 2019 by brennon

HiTech Miniatures are still powering on with their alternative miniatures for use in the grimdark future and beyond. Take a peek at their newest release for Protox of the Bio-Tech Covenant.

You could see this fellow being used as part of a Chaos Legion, leading his forces into battle. I get the sense that he likes playing around with the idea of warping his body with technology so there are plenty of pipes everywhere and lots of bionics on show.

Whilst the miniature does look good, and very much in keeping with an older style of soldier from Warhammer 40,000, I can't help but feel like some of the techniques are a little busy. The character gets a little lost amongst the armour here I feel and whilst that's good for someone trying not to get shot, it's not as good for someone wanting to designate who their hero is.

What do you make of Protox?
