I like him but I think the head could be better. The combination of straight horns with the curved ones looks a bit strange. The placement of the horns seems off too..

I dont need more gw minis... how about something... original?
I know he is probably making easy money, but come on, at least release 1 or 2 minis that are not based on GW universe...
Wasted talent on these minis.

But I think he prefers to earn decent money than to invent something new. I may be wrong though...

I must admit I am with you here, I'd also like to see something innovative from him.

it was not sculpted by Felix.
I treat his company's minis (no matter who was the sculptor) as standard fantasy minis. I don't expect every company to release innovative stuff. I expect them to release good sculpts, and imho they keep doing it from the very beginning.

Yep they do.

But the more you get the more you want. And I started expecting more and more from them. The sculpt is not bad and it is pretty generic fantasy IMHO - I think there are beastmen in AD&D too..

Warhammer is based on many popular cliches and concepts, so most Warhammer models can be also generic fantasy models at the same time.
But let's be honest - these were obviously sculpted with Warhammer in mind!

I disagree with you there... theres more to a good mini than just being well sculpted.
I apreciate more quality and less quantity... IMHO quality of a mini is measured not only by the sharpness or the sculpt work.
With that said... I do espect more creativity from all companies.
