I like this mini a lot. It has one of Werner's trademark wonky poses, but it's also one of these sculpts where it really works. I'll be getting this one. 9.90 euro, but I think it's worth it...
EDIT: Sorry Marijn, for stepping into your territory, but I was sort of excited by this sculpt and had to share it! :)

No problem dude :D.
I'm not really interested by the sculpt, but that may be because of the unpaintedness of it. Happens a lot that I like a Werner sculpt much, much more after it has been painted.

I often like seeing pictures of greens, and Werner's sculpts are no exceptions, because I try to picture how I would paint it then (which I don't when I see painted versions). If I get a cool image in my head then, I generally end up buying the mini. If I don't, I generally don't buy it!
But, when I eventually paint the mini it might very well be completely different than what I first imagined.

I like the details on the person, but the sword is horrendous, and holding it behind the back is just daft.

Forum crossover jokes... :rolleyes:
I actually like the sword! I realise it's not a very good design on a sword from a authenticity point of view, but it looks stylish! :)

Somebody remind to *not* sit by or across from her at the table.

Again...Freebooter releases another female that looks like all the rest...there is no originality in this company! It's either pirates or females...I'm glad that I have not purchased any of these miniatures! Hopefully there are more of you out there that feel this way. Cheers.

She looks like shes really struggling with the weight of the sword and leaning into it lol, not suprised the sword is bloody stupid in design terms.

I saw Jen Haley's painted version of this earlier today, and I think Amy Brehm is prepping one as well.
How often is it that a peon like me gets to sit and paint with Amy on my left and Jen on my right? And about 10 feet from Werner Klocke, Sandra Garrity, Jason Weibe, and Derek Schubert?
Ah, the joys of ReaperCon.

I do not like the hair, gives her a mongoloid look to me or a moon head.

I also saw the painted version at Reapercon (alas, I didn't get to stay the week with the crew, though) and it's very pretty and stylish. I also got to pick the figure up as a pre-release as well as a varient of the visions in color thief Werner did - he's standing instead of crouching, and he has no rooftop, but the upper torso/cloak/head seems the same, but I haven't gotten 'round to comparing them side-by-side.

If anybody is looking for that VIC thief with rooftop...I have one here at home and I will probably never ever paint him...so if anyone is interested...

The legs were a separate piece so it would have been easy enough just to replace them with standing legs. Probably is all the same then.
