Go Hunting With DreamForge’s Female Panzerjager!
November 19, 2014 by brennon
DreamForge Games have added to their Eisenkern faction with some Female Panzerjager who will be hunting down tanks and other armoured enemies to blow them to pieces...
Above you can see the kit that you get to make your Stromtroopers into their female counterparts. As you'll see there is no boob-plating to be sen anywhere here as, you guessed it, when wearing armour as heavy as this you wouldn't be able to tell!
Some rather awesome looking soldiers and it's great to see that something as simple as changing the legs gives you a noticeable change in the gender yet doesn't make it overly apparent. It might be quite cool to use these as Militarum Tempestus in a new Astra Militarum army for Warhammer 40,000 and of course in pretty much any Sci-Fi game you like.
What do you think?
I’m no expert in anatomy, but I’m pretty sure that women aren’t just men with differently shaped legs. It’s great that they don’t have two large hemispheres stuck to their chests, but are they really using the same torsos as the male minis?
I’m no anatomy expert either, but I do see a huge difference between these torso parts – the male one is cylinder shaped and buff in the shoulders while this one is hour-glass shaped and has a slight chest bump and slimmer shoulders – I don’t think they look similar at all…
You’ve obviously never been to Doncaster in South Yorkshire.
I see your point @erastus, but you are looking at armour here, not just anatomy. Stick a man and a woman of the same height in identical suits of medieval full plate armour (with the helmets on and visors down – no cheating) and try telling the difference just by looking at them; it wouldn’t be as easy as you might expect. The armour depicted here is quite bulked out and seemingly has more internal structure around the wearer than historical plate armours. As the OP points out, such a fairly heavy armour suit would do much to obscure the… Read more »
I definitely think that Brennon is on to something when he says that these would make good alternate Militarum Tempestus Scions for the Imperial Guard (sorry – Astra Militarum) in 40K. The models would look great in GW’s grimdark future, and explaining the weaponry is as simple as saying that this unit is equipped from a Forgworld that favours solid shot weapons with techno-arcarna armour piercing ammunition to more conventional hotshot lasguns (while the rules remain exactly the same). Convert on a couple of recogniseable 40K special weapons and add approproate iconograply you design for your new Scions regiment, and… Read more »
Soooo, no ridiculous melons, good start…. But Kim Kardashian style ass… They have replaced the massive knockers with a giant booty…
maybe the future Wehrmacht likes a little in the middle with a lot more trunk!
I just hope and pray there is a sister of battle named ‘Becky’

Now that I have spent more time looking at the sculpts I see your point. It is a shame that these models seem to give with one hand only to take with the other. Warlords Algoryn Ai infiltrators seem like a better option for a set of women soldier sculpts without either boob armour or exaggerated hips.

I don’t get the big asses and massive thighs, it is a shame. The box art is also dreadful.
I agree. These just aren’t very good at all.
There’s no way i’d choose these over Victoria minis female Arcadians.
I find that with models that are a small scale such as war game models it is very hard to define men from women unless you accentuate, exaggerate or keep them normal looking. What I mean by normal is they have average Joe and Jane cloths. Once you go into the realm of fictional armour, the sculptor goes into a guessing game of this sort of looks like a lady from afar.
As much as I like Infinity female sculpts I also like idea of female scifi soldiers that have proper armor and are not posed like they were in photo shoot instead of taking part to battle.
