On a personal note, I like his stuff. I have some of the Hungry Troll ogres and Chaos Factory markers, and am awaiting the Hungry Troll Nurgle team which I backed. No complaints so far.
Thanks for the awesomoe link.
I also backed that nurgle team and like the style very much but I don't like the wood elves.

So I'm just crossing fingers and hope he's not screwing up the DEs.

Hi mates!

The teams are being 3D modeled by Sergi Torras. We have being working close with him on the teams, so we could get the aesthetics and the scale we wanted and the results are being awesome. Of course the minis match the 28mm heroic scale and with the classic look we like.
Although we love the traditional sculpting, for this project the 3D was the only viable option and we have to say that we're very happy with Sergi's work and eager to share with you some pictures in the coming days! :)

When you share photos, could you please add a rule or other miniatures so we could compare the size of miniatures
Thank you

What exactly means '28 mm herioc'?
It's taller than the GW scale, right?

Oh well... Then we have to just wait until some pictures are presented, I guess!

Hurry up! I probably wanna throw some money at you! :lol:

I was told "28mm Heroic" means the mini is 28mm, but with warped proportions, i.e. hands, muscles, heads.

This. 28mm heroic is GW standard.

Miniature makers develop some kind of allergy to rulers, didn't you know? Everyone asks, everywhere, all the time, and most brands "forget". It sure has to be a medical condition.

Hi friends!

Some news at last! Although we have been forced to delay again the starting date for the Pro Box campaign, things run their course and everything is almost ready so we are able to announce that the launching date will be April 12th. This delay is due to several causes, including the fact that the sculptor of the two teams that will be available with the Pro Box, Sergi Torras, has been recently hired by a well-known company from Nottingham. From here we want to congratulate him. We are very happy for his success and we want to thank the effort he did to complete our project and leaving everything well-tied for the future. Our best wishes in your new stage, you deserve it! :)

That said, we are taking care for all details so that the product that we will offer you can be the best possible and we're confident that the wait and the effort will be worthwhile. To get started, today we are very happy to show you a sample of the miniatures that will make up the aforementioned teams, the Imperial Lions and the Blackfire Chevaliers! Hope you like them! :)

Nice! They look proper :) Only thing I would change if I could, would be to inset their faces more into the helmets. There's no way in hell you can get your eyebrows flush with a football helmet. But I'm nitpicking now. They're miniatures.

Is it me or these 2 miniatures are far from the initial project?
By the way, can we have a picture with GW miniatures comparison, for instance GW human 5th edition?
That would be very helpful
