Wild West Exodus Enlist Mimreg Zain For Your Next Sermon
July 15, 2014 by brennon
The next time you turn up for church with the Holy Order in Wild West Exodus it's going to be presided by this rather neat looking new sidekick, Mimreg Zain. His name makes him sound like an alien but he sure looks like a steampunk/sci-fi Templar!
Coming into battle armed with that neat looking axe and a pistol that also houses another type of blade you know this guy means business. I'm a big fan of the armour and it's great to see this edge of grim dark sci-fi working its way into the game. I'd love to either paint him up with oil and mud splattering his armour or clean and shining with a bit of object source lighting glowing across his breastplate.
My only complain would be the stance; something about the legs looks a little off. Apart from that though it's a really cool miniature!
Does this new religious zealot measure up?
Oh dear, methinks my foray into napoleonics might have to go on hold…. This site really needs a forum dedicated to excuses we can use on the wives as to why these things are essential to our hobby, iv’e run out.
I know he is supposed to have steampunk design but I don’t really get feel that he would belong to steampunk Wild West setting. He would be right at home in 40k universe.
Its now steampunk mate, its Cowpunk! 🙂
I was thinking one of the guardians of the Emperor? What are they called again? Custodes I think. Nice mini thou, do like the different design to the Holy Order, very Aztec/South American.
Really like the model and I agree that the stance looks a little off, but this could just be the angle of the photo. The axe looks a little to thick too imho, almost like a long bladed hammer in this case. I think its yet again that the Hired Hands are the best models in this range so far, they really acieve a lot with those plastics imho. 🙂
Nice to see 40K creeping its way into this game like most. Cool bolt pistol thought!
