My new Butchers/Maneaters.....

Hey all. Bought these minis from Rackham to represent either my Tzeentch-themed Butchers or general Maneaters.



NOT my paintjob!

Those are pretty cool models. As a rule I don't like mixing the companies, but who cares, they look cool.

Your screen name is killing me though, thats one of my and my wife's favorite parts of that movie <<still LOL>>

great models, a friend of mine is going to get them for his confrontation army. And I get my inspiration for my warpaint from them.

They fit maneaters more then Butchers I think.

Very cool models, but unless you're heavily converting the rest of the army to fit they'd stand out a bit too much - the Rackham stuff is heavily stylised compared to the GW stuff and they'd stand out like a sore thumb. (then again, if they are Maneaters, they're meant to stand out a bit!)

Would be excellent for a Nipponese Oni-themed ogre army though

I'd be inclined to agree. the models are really fantastic (as most of the rakham stuff is) but it might a bit out of place in a regular ogre army. You might want to consider adding a gutplate to the model to make it fit a biut more with the GW ogre aesthetic. looking forward to seeing your painted versions

I think maneaters too but I can see why they might work as butchers given the teeth.

great models, good luck withthe painting

I definitely am a fan of mixing models, only because I can.  Can't wait to see them with some of your paint on them.

Well the fluff for my list is that three Twin Brothers proved to be immense Butchers and whilst battling a Tzeentch Warband, attracted the attention of the Big Bird.

They managed to get their Tyrant possessed by a Daemon and now control him and his tribe. Here's their poor Tyrant (next on my shopping list....)

how much is that tyrant thing

About £25+ depending on where you go....

That's a relally nie model, and looks pretty good for a possessed ogre. A nice paintscheme (blue? ) would really set the theme off

Thanks

do they come prepainted cause i think that would take most the fun out of the hobby>>>

No, they don't come pre-painted. Those are just the ones painted by their own in-house painters at Rackhem.

...who are bloody amazing!

. A nice paintscheme (blue? )

i knew you would suggest this, then again it is a tzeench possessed ogre...

I wish that you could get that quality of painting on pre-painted
