Shadow Faction - First Sculpt!
After the survey and discussions with various people it’s starting to look like we will need to make sure we have faction starter sets available for all four core factions for launch. So with that in mind, we needed to get sculpts done for the Shadow and the Ordo Draco.
Check out the super cool sculpt for the Balestrieri miniature! I really wanted to capture the feel of her leaping back just an instant after she has loosed bolts from both of her weapons. Feedback welcome!
Two Balestrieri will be included in the faction starter set. Short range experts, the Balestrieri use a pair of pistol crossbows. Able to deliver accurate and deadly bolts into their targets weak spots, they are dangerous foes. They are a member of the Shadow faction.
The Shadow prefers to employ them against targets known to be quite lethal in melee themselves, and who know how to use cover to avoid a sniper. The Balestrieri will sneak in past any cover, but stay just out of the reach of a sword. Then when their target least expects it, she will deliver crossbow bolts to the head & heart!

@davehawes – Her hair is epic! She must go through conditioner like crazy!
On a more serious note, great dynamic pose on the mini. Sounds like this girl is deadly with those crossbows, shooting a knight through the vision slit? Awesome!
Haha! Thanks, yeah she’s turned out well, and deadly!
