All those humanoid minis have ugly faces.

While that's ok an Orcs or other apparently evil/chaotic creature, even those humans or elves look like they could scare children easily.

Have to agree not a great fan of the facial sculpts although some interesting figures!

Unfortunatly some of them are painted by Angel Giraldez and I can't stand his style as it's so bland.

And as said, the faces do leave a little to be desired. It's fine for this one:

As she's undead.

But this guy...

His eyes don't match up at all.

Alelus? Yeah, gotta agree with you... that is one accurately doofus looking Blood Bowl Troll!!!

I was sorely tempted, though I have more than enough Troll figures in my collection....

I couldn't pass up Darkuss for necro support staff... That's a wicked looking mini....

I try to look past the limitations of the artist and consider whether the mini itself is worth buying.... Too bad Auralie is 54mm....

Darkuss just came in the mail today and the mini is even better in "person" than on the website.... The amount of detail is breathtaking and the banner/scroll on his back is designed separately and in such a way that it can be left off without needing putty or sanding...!

The icing on the cake comes in the full color card that shows the fully painted mini on one side and the artist concept on the other.... The ONLY criticism I have (and it's terribly minor) is that the artist concept side of the card could've served better with a rear view of the painted mini....

Given this minis excellence of production, I can only hope that Zenit miniatures of Spain has great success and many runs of minis....
