I really like the mini. The weapons are imvao at the maximum size, I sure hope this is not an indication for future minis, as I really like the scale of HD weapons compared to nearly any other Tabletop.

Whoo hoo! ACE! I agree the weapons are aboy as big as I'd want to see them but as long as we don't see weapons that big on a regular human I'm happy.

yes i think your right, i couldnt put my finger on it but it seems like it doesnt belong with the rest of the range...i think this is one of those minis that looks better in the flesh.

What is this supposed to be, Anima Tactics in Hell ?? If this concept/figure is any indication as to the future of Hell Dorado's aesthetics, then it's really bad, because it is a change from a distinctive, infernal and gritty theme to some teenage candy a** anime style. What's next, a "kawaii" resculpt of Bran Carnoth with huge manga-eyes ?

As far as I remember, this concept was drawn by Bertrand Benoit before we even knows that Asmodee plan to stop the game (Cipher was not involved at all in the game at this time)... So I don't think ti has influenced by Anima Tactics, except maybe by the way the pictures has been taken.  Wink

Yeh it does not fit in with the rest of the range very well
At all. May be its the paint job.

The mini is cool. I don't like the paint job. The green does not go with the saracens at all. I think I will paint mine more smoke and fire looking.

That and the fluorescent green colors make it seem anima. I do think it would be to Ciphers advantage to try and brand HD different from Anima. Maybe change the style and background on the pictures to more of a hell theme.

To be clear, the concept art, sculpting, and painting was done entirely by the original Hell Dorado team with no influence from anyone working on Anima Tactics.  They are totally different teams nor do we have any desire to bring the two worlds together.

As if everyone in my area needed another reason to want to play as Saracens.

I have to say that this model is too much on the anime side of style for my taste. And it's not just the colours, but mostly, but also the pose and shape of the mini. I have nothing against minis being over the top - hence my love for the demons - as long as it looks naturalistic and gritty. This djin is just too slick.
