Gotta say, not too impressed. Pose is kinda boring, and ho looks kinda like some emo-goth-punk to me.
What's with the 'jack bauer' bags and aleph?! I have 5.11 one, and I love it :p

Hoped this would look more like Julian Assange. I found that an amazing reference, but the blue hair behind big goggles wasn't what I had in mind.:p

Another reason not to bother with Greek ALEPH! I prefer the Dasyus, Nagas, Asuras, Devas...

Yeah it still looks off to me and I can't put my finger on why.

I think you guys are missing the most important thing about this reveal. He's standing in an armory! That means that somewhere, Corvus Belli has all kinds of gun molds laying around. Weapon packs now!

Hmm... It's a good thing I'm planning on going Vedic. Thamyris just... I don't know. I'd give him a 2 on the Schrieber scale, at best.

What sort of strange hat is this man wearing? That does not seem to be hair.

Those armory pieces are most likely Antenocitis upcoming scenery elements.

The pose is static, but for hackers, it's that or "dancing".

We already knew they had molds, the old models had the same weapon from model to model. And you can already buy weapon packs, not cheap. Free body with them.

If AW goes with the armoury models as in the past, no, this is not. AW puts the weapons against the surface, horizontal, for easy casting. Like the one in the wall.

I don't think his jacket should have abs. That's one thing I'd change.

That's not a jacket.. :D

Or at least it won't be.

Looks Warsenal-y to me. Must be a pain to paint either way.

No airbrush? Looks easy enough to me. Though, my weapons are pretty spartan in their paint schemes.

I've been getting back into Ariadna. All their weapons have just been straight black, matching the modern sport rifle and contemporary military assault rifle aesthetic. Also it's really easy to paint. :D

Ah, I do a black with various shades of grey highlighting/drybrushing, then finish it with a black wash to muddle it all out. Gives a nice "real" feeling to the aesthetic.

I agree it does seem slightly off. I think having the model in person will help quite a bit, he's got a pretty creepy look going on in the second image...

I'll still pick him up, but I grab anything that comes out for ALEPH :P .

Remove the pistol, and you have an awesome looking civilian. :)

With quick greenstuff molds you can make a full armoury out of your SpecOps gun packs...

This stuff is easy and perfect for mass producing guns.

I'd be interested in that quickmold stuff if it wasn't from CMoN. As a Relic Knights backer, my experience with their performance has been confirmed to be questionable, at best. Full of delays and unreasonable expectations, if I'm honest.

You can get it from a plethora of places other than CMoN. It goes by the trade name 'Oyumaru' as well, but look on eBay etc and you will find it (and probably for cheaper than CMoN as well)

I haven't had a problem with CMON's regular store at all, plus they're one of the few places that keeps track of the original sculpts and marks resculpts as such (even when the SKU has been replaced).

Another reason to avoid the CMON versions (epoxies, etc) is price, 13 bucks vs cheaper from many other places, or even direct from Hinodewashi if you buy a box. Then you can pick a different color too, just in case you want for other uses.
