Pictures of the Sslyth and Lhamaean have started floating around the interweb.

That Dark Eldar bird looks pretty good.

As Spev says, the lhamean is pretty nice. Shame itll be in finecast, though :(

As for the sslyth. *sigh* dropped the ball there, chaps. Couldve been so much better. What the heck is that pose all about? Where's the dynamism? I mean, what's he doing? falling over backwards? I also dont like that he's wearing Dark Eldar armour. He's a mercenary. Does he not have his own armour, no?

Basically, the coolness of these models is inversely proportional to their usefulness in-game. Lhamean - useless in game, lovely model. Sslyth - great in game, crap model.

Drat.

ah well, another reason not to buy finecast...

Wow. And then Corona happened. Just....crickets, all the way through to 2023...

I thought the same thing about the snake and his/her/it's armour.

I understand wanting to have some kind of cohesion across the armour but it does look a bit "meh" as you like to say.
