Raging Heroes Announce New Lust Elves Spider Mother
February 27, 2019 by cassn
Lust Elves - beautiful sirens of unimaginable power and dangerous lusts, only the bravest would ever try and love them. However, for Raging Heroes latest Toughest Girls Of The Galaxy Lust Elf miniature, you would have to be suicidal.
Suddenly, vagina dentata seems insignificant. I doubt she gets asked out on many dates, but then again, I doubt many of her suitors get much of a choice.
I don't really know what to say about this model. There's another person in her...mouth?? Let's say mouth and save me some therapy.
@lancorz compared this miniature to a lantern fish and, strangely enough, it has helped me to be less horrified (although I'm still pretty horrified). I thought tentacles were bad!
Outside of abject fear and the clenching of my inner thighs, this miniature is incredibly detailed, but I don't know that I like the overall design. It feels a little cluttered, although I would imagine with the right paint scheme, this could be a beautiful, intricate....nope. Can't do it. This is nightmare fuel.
Honestly, I've had mixed feelings about The Toughest Girls Of The Galaxy series. The miniatures are good quality, incredibly detailed, and have an overall epic feel. However, a lot of the characters are underdressed and over-accentuated. And sometimes this is easily explained (these are, after all, Lust Elves).
However, at the end of the day, it depends on how you want your tabletop to look. This Spider Mother is certainly horrific, and I have no doubt she is one of the Toughest Girls Of The Galaxy (usurped only by the woman who waxes her).
I personally find her a bit too sexually implicit but that's my opinion, and others may feel differently. You can get Syl-Yarath, the Lust Elves Spider Mother now from Raging Heroes.
What is your opinion of the Toughest Girls Of The Galaxy Series? Let us know below!

That is looks really stunning. I like it a lot.
Their range is simply amazing, and this beast tops it imho. If you don’t like your troops scantily clad because lack of Slaanesh in your life, have a look at their Sisters of Eternal Mercy. GW will have to do their homework pretty damn well to trump that badassery.
that’s a commanding figure the side and back of the spider looks great as well.
Personally I find these sculpts to be overly busy and really not an aesthetic that I like. I find them quite gratuitous and not all that clever with the ‘exaggerated sexuality’ thing.
I am curious if the casts reflect the renders though.
That group shot has the actual casts. Definitely not a style that will work for everybody, but Raging Heroes knows what they’re doing when it comes to casting. There’s generally quite a bit of vents to clean of, but the resin mix makes most of it simple and clean to do.
Waxing, ugh! I say leave it au naturale! 😛
Think of how difficult trying to sculpt that would be otherwise. Wyrd already puts in so many fiddly bits on their regular 32mm figures. Putting this together would be nightmare fuel to build if it were more like a tarantula beyond the fringe of its gaping orifice.
Aside from that I’d say H.R. Giger biomechanical design infused with modern body horror aesthetics in the same vein as Kingdom Death. The Slaaneshi salaciousness is strong with this one.
love you mum
Now that is one mean mutha… Sold! “Underdressed and over-accentuated”? — Yup, just the way I like ’em. Probably why Raging Heroes is one of my most fave companies in the whole wide world. (Not to mention their figures’ incredibly dynamic poses and fabulous sense of design) With their recent outstanding Dark Elves Altar of the Succubi, very cool Avatar of Shaah, creepy Yscarloth and now this, they have really been putting out some amazing work lately. I give them my full support. Keep those Dark Elves, Lust Elves & Void Elves releases coming, RH! (And how about some more… Read more »
This reminds me of the day Warren came into the gaming club giggling his head off and asked me to write a piece about Kingdom Death’s Wetnurse… the first scarring moment in a career of scarring moments.
