The models are OK but the colors really kill it for me... Imagine these guys at Mcvey or giraldez with total freedom to paint them out and I would bet these would look fresh and a lot better... This is a good example that no matter how good is your technique if the colors suck its never going to be a special mini.

Im very dissapointed. I wasn't expecting miracles but the dwarves were decent. These have the bodies of the regular orcs from their fantasy line, only arms and heads are different here... Meh...

As a space orc player I was hoping for cheap alternatives for 40k... I might still get a box or two of those but not sure now. The space dwarves are much better in my opinion. Oh well...

And a concept art for the next sci-fi race:

I find quality of sculpt the same between the sf dwarfs and sf orcs... the paintjob makes all the difference though.

Oh well, maybe You're right... maybe my expectations were a bit to high.

I was mostly dissapointed by the fact they're just regular orcs with sf bits on them, but the longer I look at them the more I feel that I can live with that.

They're far from perfect, but you get 20 for 20 pounds. If I remember corectly you get 10 boyz from GW for the same price.
