Kingdom Death we’d like to Ass you some Questions!
February 23, 2011 by dracs
When I came into the office today, Warren showed me the new sculpt by Adam Poots at Kingdom Death and I just felt I had to share it with you... that way I won't be the only one with mental scarring. Behold the Grand Mother!
To dispel any last illusions you might be holding, no that ain't a tail.
As a sculpt, I have to say the figure itself is actually pretty good and the wings look awesome, as does the amount of detail on the... er... trouser snake.
Having said that, I think we may need to get Adam around the Beasts of War table sometime and help him to talk out his issues. Especially when you see some of his other, rather disturbing sculpts. Just take a look at cute little Gorm here.
I ain't even gunna put up a pic of the Wet Nurse. Go on, click the link, I dare you.
So what do you think of these twisted little marvels? Can you think of anything you could use them as? Or would you just get them for the painting challenge. Or maybe you have your own diabolical reasons. Drop us a comment below.

Click the link? I dont think it can’t be that ba.. OH HELL NO. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? WHY WOULD YOU MAKE ME SEE THAT?!? D:
Okay its not that bad but seriously, do not click that link if you’re at work school or eating…
Good grief!!!
/faints
Once seen it can not be unseen.
WTF!? It’s beautiful and disgusting at the same time. Looks like tentacle porn now is not just seen in japan^^
Sounds like Slaaneesh to me
ummm wow thats werid …..
I would have rejoiced that someone finally had the balls to make minis a little more “edgy” than just pin-up girls with big boobs…
Perhaps a naked guy, a couple, something a little kinky, something more suggestive or sensual than just a pair of boobs on an otherwise regular mini…
But this… DAMN… There is such a thing as “too much, too far, too soon”, isn’t there ?
Oh well, the hentai and alien fans will be pleased…
Oh, and they’re Thomas David sculpts, by the way… Which explains the quality.
You know, I think I’ll be buying some anyway… they kind of grow on you, and they make excellent demons or slaaneshites…
All I can say is it could have been much worse. Who am I kidding, that was out in left field.
really great collection, what scale?
Heroic – 33mm scale as far as I understand.
Despite the mind-scouring images of mutant boobs, there are also a number of very good gothic fantasy models, suitable for tranferring to Warhammer Fantasy.
or of course, playing Kingdom Death… whatever that is. 😀

so i just looked up thomas david’s blog. really awesome. who are some other good sculpters?
Actually, it’s not hard to imagine some of the more recent models, especially the Gorm, as suitable miniatures for a Dead Space-inspired game..
There are some superb sculptors working for KoD!
fantastic if sometimes disturbing work.
The female designs are pretty good imho but it would be nice to see this quality if sculpting on figures that don’t conform to the stereotypical Fantasy Beachwear Babe.
Look forward to seeing some of the other characters realised in 3D
i can’t find a KoD miniatures. i found ‘knight of the dinner table’ but they go by KoDT.
un-acronym for me?
Beg pardon Genius.
KoD = Kingdom of Death
not knives on the dinner table lol
It’s Kingdom Death isn’t it?
Lotr KoW BoW
Hope you can forgive my stickin’ an Oh in the middle
DOH!
I remember seeing the wet nurse when it came out.
Its often hard enough to explain why you have space marines to a new girlfriend, what the hell would you say if she saw that?
Its the mother of the Sanguinor? 😉
someone’s been watching some wierd ass japanese cartoon porn to come up with something as horrific as that. seriously ewww. if you buy that theres something wrong with you.
We need to get a chat with @warzan then 😉
He’s frothing about these lol
Hey!
I can’t help liking ART 😉
(on the wet nurse ) I don’t know whether to Scream in madness or be slightly aroused (Blush) +_+
Baby you make me wish i had 18 hands! 😉
Great- now I have to watch Total Recall.
holy tits
wow those miniatures look great :O
some of ’em look like they jumped out of a tentacle hentai vid but still they look awesome
and if you’ll excuse me I have to rinse my eyes with acid and a steel brush
BTW is that an umbilical cord or… something else from the grand mother? I read the bio on the grand mother and that thing eats mans um… manhood. It seems that they have a pregnancy complex of some sort.
The wet nurse so belongs in a slaanesh themed deamon army. If they re-release I am seriously going to make some crazy chaos deamon orgy diorama.
i love it, some of the best models i have ever seen. the wet nurse is awesome, its just the right amount of wrong to be a great greater deamon. i am so close to just trying to get my hands it and start a deamons army. ohhhhh maybe, i love daemons.
Once you see it, you can´t unsee it.
@manpug: It’s called a “vagina dentata” or “toothed vagina.” It’s an ancient anti-rape image. Although the whole “tentacle/penis” thing is usually missing.
These figs are just freaky as f**k, pun intended. 🙂
That’s actually really awesome.
Speaking as a huge fan of H R “vagina” Giger, I’ll be looking into getting some of these and starting up an “alternative models” Slaanesh army. Grand Mother Masque and a Wet Nurse Keeper. I just hope I can find something suitably fucked up to make into Daemonettes =D
Just a note- I went and brought one while I could still get all the funky limited edition stuff. That artwork print’s going on my wall.
Love it, been following Kingdom death for a while now, they so some amazing sculpts. Some pretty weird stuff too but amazing nevertheless.
I personally love the Kingdom Death line of minatures. The twisted, sureal and nightmareish fantasy setting is fantastic. The sculpts are unique and very well done and the minitures are a dream to paint.
Some of the minis are not as good as others (Gorm). However models like the Twighlight pinup, the Savior and even the Grandmother by far exceed, in quality, anything the larger companies have put out in years.
Great company, exceptional minis looking forward to more weirdness
Those minis are freakin awesome! Like many people here have said, they look a lot Slaaneshy. If I had the dough, I’d so be startin’ a daemon army 😉
