The WereSheWolves Come Howling Into Battle From Raging Heroes
September 27, 2016 by brennon
The snarling WereSheWolves from Raging Heroes are now available for you to snap up from their webstore. Take a look at them howling at the moon, getting ready to tear their foes asunder!
I really like what they've done here to take them to that next level, giving them crazy over the top musculature and poses which show them in the midst of violence. I think with a bit of blood splashed over those claws and their bodies they'd look even more dangerous!
I'm not entirely sure all of them needed to have their mouths open as it does tend to make them all feel like the same model, simply posed different, but other than that I think these would be great for your gaming and hobbying.
Each of the WereSheWolves are available separately as well as part of the larger box so if you like one design you can simply stick with her. Reyha, Sheera, Vankaree, and Zagrath could each be a major project in themselves if you wanted to spend a long time getting everything right when it comes to painting.
Vankaree above was one of my favourites from the box because the pose looked like she was getting ready for a strike; a neat action shot!
What do you think of their wild wolf women?

omg the size of those things – they’re massive! on a 50mm bases and standing twice as tall as a human. crikey!
I wondered what you were talking about then! O_O
Pmsl
“i am woman. Here me roar!” I swear that’s like a herbal essences advert line or something… but it seems to fit…. When I heard about the Toughest Girls of the Galaxy lines, I assumed it would be a line of miniatures designed to bring a bit more gender balance and equality to the table top if you are so inclined. Boy was I wrong, Don’t get me wrong, they are imposing and cool as, I always wanted a werewolf in my Vampire counts army but nobody did a good, large werewolf back in the day. These would have fit… Read more »
shouldnt female werewolves have 8 nipples?!
Male werewolves are bare chested so why not female and if you wanted to be anatomically correct and then she would have more breasts. If you have seen the god awful American Werewolf in Paris you will know what I mean.
I didn’t go further than american werewolf in london unfortunately haha! I agree with the bare chested-nes but there is a level of what is sensible I guess? I suppose my problem is titillation for titillation sake (mind the pun)
Also, more nipples WOULD make sense, so really… it should be even more extravagant than it already is! damn…
Good stick with the excellent American Werewolf in London and never watch the terrible sequel.
Those look very nice.
Suitably savage looking werewolves, and on balance nice miniatures, but like some of the other commenters, I find the choice to keep the humanoid breasts to be odd. I understand that male werewolves go around bare chested too – though that said do have… let’s just say conveniently long fur in certain other parts of their anatomy – but I do feel that, if they are going for the lycanthropic transformation angel, then these ladies should have eight lupine style teats rather than recognizably human mammary glands. It would avoid the needlessly titillating side of the miniatures (though if you… Read more »
They’re werewolves, not actual wolves so why would they need 8 breasts? Werewolves are anthropomorphic after the change and so retain certain characteristics of both wolf and human (for example they usually have human hands and a bi-pedal, if somewhat crouched, stance) and in this case they retain humanoid breasts – very much in keeping with male werewolves who are often portrayed with two pectorals and two nipples.
Also, I don’t think boobs on a werewolf are in any way titillating.
… they aren’t ???? .. …. Goes of to seek councilling. =)
off…. (lordie I wish we had an edit function in this forum)
It is all a matter of interpretation. Te original mythic werewolf was not anthropomorphic and was typically depicted in the medieval period as a quadruped in the form of an oversized dire wolf style creature. The classic wolf man of Hollywood fame didn’t have a lupine face at all, but a furry human face with overdeveloped teeth. The point is that there are any number of ways one could go with interpreting a lycanthrope of either gender, and this particular take is in no way unavoidable. Raging Heroes chose to go this way, and it is simply not to my… Read more »
Well, lots of things are titillating to some people. Lots of people have a real thing for feet but they don’t seem to raise much comment when we see them sculpted in miniature. I think titillation is mostly about context and there is none here, excepting for maybe a few outliers with more, erm, specialised interests.
The reference to Furries was supposed to be joke, but sadly does not appear to have cleared the basic bar of actually being funny. I will try harder in future.
No, the joke got through, hence my reference to *ahem* specialist interests. I consider yiffing to be fairly specialist
raging heroes are producing some awesome miniatures,but the she werewolves aren’t my favourites in the line. they are nicely done just not as cool as some of their other models.it would be pretty difficult to distinguish them as female without breasts, a bow in their hair maybe:). as for how many breasts , its a fantasy monster it can have as many as it likes. in my opinion I wound have just done werewolves generally and said they were female. I would pick them up if I was going to paint the army they belong to, but they wouldn’t be… Read more »
Well, if they had had eight, that would have outdone total recall lol
Me likey………..
O.O
Brother G
right who said the Chippendales were cancelled.
great figures.
Love the werewolves. Only thing letting them down are those awful mouths! Very poorly sculpted, like five nights at Freddie’s. Would have been better snarling and showing some gums, like a real wolf/dog, not a crocodile.
I like them, but the head pose puts me off getting one.
As for the boobies… I think it works. I suppose it depends on if you’re going for a more human werewolf or a wolfier werewolf.
I have been revisiting this page to keep (ahem) abreast of this discussion, Have the 8 breast camp considered that traditionally male werewolves when modelled is depicted with two nipples (if any at all…. sigh …. such nipple pedjudice ) therefore two is suffice and frankly more visually appeling.
Note: This does not change my position in a much much earlier debate, that female kobolds and lizard folk should be sans breasts due to their reptilean nature)
Note2: because this is written and my voice intonations cannot be detected…. I really don’t give a sh!t, please don’t take me seriously
I think this entire discussion probably needs to be had with tongue firmly planted in cheek…
The werewolves we see here are the common take on the Confrontation Wolfen that popularized the main of hair, long pointed ears that come together at the points and the hock of the wolfs hind legs added to a humanoid form. Because of Confrontations take on the werewolf was so popular almost every other miniature of a werewolf copied that aesthetic. The breasts being bare doesn’t really bother me as I can see this as more in line with them being savage and as one of the only key pointers of them being female. The choice to have them be… Read more »
I think I accidentally created the multiple breast camp! My real issue was cleverly guided in jokier comments, I guess it was too hidden. Saying that, as has been suggested, keep those tongues firmly in those cheeks! I think my issue is more to do with the way in which men and women perceive gender representation. As a male, I try to look at things with the same perspective as my partner. In that regard, I know she would be absolutely disgusted with these, therefore they make me feel like they are a bad representation of women (or she-wolves anyway)….… Read more »
I think you have to make your own mind up about nudity rather than looking at it through your wife’s eyes (although having a similar opinion probably makes it easier to live with one another). My own wife doesn’t really give a shit about nudity. I think, if you ask around, the divide on opinion of whether nudity, female or otherwise, is good or bad does not run perfectly between the genders. There are people of both sexes in both camps.
Thats not quite what I mean either. Nudity is fine, it’s about context and use of nudity. In that regard I guess I just find these models tactless. For me they don’t add anything I guess.
I think I’ve come across as caring more than I actually do haha
