Talk Fantasy Football

Hello here are some images of my team in court of creation. A campaign " indiegogo " will be launched when she will be finished.

thank you

Usual objections to miniature poses looking like fashion models rather football players....

Putting has a share the first one, I do not see in what puts them are fashion?

I'm using "fashion model" as a euphemism for suggestive poses.

This one for example

I am in agreement with you this pose makes " fashion model " but the others I do not find. I was very careful has this problem and I also paid attention in rest pose to facilitate games and to avoid that miniatures breaks itself .
thank you for your comment

Hardly surprising as the creator. I made the same objections on Facebook when they were shown there, sas did others, so it's not an one-off objection.

Regardless, good luck with the campaign but not for me.

I think their lovely, great figures and nice to see a female team with suitable footwear.

I'd probably back these depending on cost. I find painting flesh challenging so would enjoy seeing these come together.

BTW I think the negative feedback is daft. There's nothing wrong with athletic healthy looking models with shorts on. I mean no one bothers about half naked Norse models or lean and ripped Wood Elves.

Let females be sexy and attractive it's all good.

I think you're missing the point, it's not that they're"sexy and attractive", it's the fact some of them (not all, obviously) have poses that are more appropriate to the fashion runway and not players.

Personally, I really don't like 'sexy' teams. That's why I'd never would have any team from Shadowforge.
Or german company 'Freebooter Miniatures' with sculptor Werner Glocke. Try google image search and you'll see tits, tits and even more tits.
It may be appealing to a younger audience but I've seen enough breasts IRL, I don't need 'naked' miniatures.

But the complaints here were not about the sexiness of the team but the poses to be more like models instead of athletes in the middle of a match. An opinion I completely understand.

Since I'm all set with 'Zons, all I can do is wish good look for the campaign.
A wider variety of miniatures is never a problem.
The more the merrier, I've heard!

Hm, Darkson beat me to it.

They look like they are stood ready to kick off or awaiting the referee's whistle...

Similarly you might argue that these are not suitable for Warhammer 40k?

Nope, I think they're perfectly fine on first glance.

But then, for me it's the "sexy" that says "no" to those female players.

After all, it's just personal preferences...

Are they going to be wearing clothes? If so, I'm in. If not, I'm out. And I mean proper clothes, not chainmail bikinis.

Since you've made a commitment, luck and the consumer be with you.

I like this project.

I have talk to Snowmodel some days ago and before, and I know that he wants to cast in resin.
Knowing this, I think that more dynamic poses will cause some solidity issues, especially ankles, due to thin models.
In this case, I prefer see them on their two feets
Second point, that gives them an old school style, remembering the GW linemen poses (but more various).

As allready said on Facebook, for once, they are not half-naked even if, IMO, that's not the problem.
Out of third-party teams, GW has made tits many times for Slaanesh demons.
In this case, for me, "younger audience" is a false argument.

As said, it's a project, many producer doesn't ask for feedback and advice.
It's his fist team and it's good to see something else and a new 3D sculptors.

If there ever was a faction that needed busty naked minis, it was Slaneesh.
The whole backstory is sex, sex & sex.

Another reason why I love chaos but always stick to Undivided, Nurgle or Khorne themed armies/teams:
I'm old enough for real boobs!
