This mini, sculpted by Thomas David, has to be one of the prettiest miniatures from the Helldorado game so far! As it's devoid of gribbliness, it's also a fairly generic miniature that can have lots of uses (if you need further excuse to buy this than the fact it's a beautiful mini, that is...).

This one goes straight on my to-buy list! :D

Yet more proof that I really like their Arabian stuff. :)

Ooo, I think that's going on my list, also. (And I agree with Skya that the Arabian line is one of their strengths, but then I'm not so into the gribbliness. I'm still a little miffed that I'd have to buy a whole box of gribbly to get the Asaliah figure that I really like.)

If you don't like the gribbly, Wren, I might be interested in taking them of your hands. I like gribbly and gory. What miffs me is paying a ton of money for a box set when I only want one or two minis in it.

And this is lovely mini. All of those little spangles could be fun to paint.

Im sure its very easy to get rid of asaliah's companions, same here, there are tons I like in the starterbox, I dislike asaliah (imho there are many and better miniatures of that nature out there :) its not because she lacks gore.) and I especially dislike the cliche red demon in the box, actually Im only really interested in whip-girl, the evil puppet and the 3 guys with weapon for arms, so if hinton doesnt want those...
(same with most boxes, the lost box I only care for the girl with the sling and maybe her victim but not really, for the westerners only the helmetless hero, the angry cook lady and the gipsy dancer.)

to be on topic, Ive always liked fantasy arabian styles, and once I can have the cash to get started, the Sarassins are my group of choice and every new release wave confirms that choice for me, I like this one tough I liked the girl riding the horse better and wish there was a non-horseback riding version as well, Im also going to look and fit in Artefactory's rhymais in the group (invent some rules for her.)
coincedentally, my group of choice for Alkemy will be the Khaliman :D

Hm... I'll try to pick up the demons box at Gen Con if Fantization brings it. (And if I haven't run out of money by then. ;->) Then I'll come offer up the rest to whoever would like to buy it.

I like this, have to get my friendly store owner to order one in for me. Have to admit I'm not keen on the boxed sets.

The Sarrasins are my favorite faction from Hell Dorado...this mini will accompany Jafar Al Efrit! This box set will be the best one yet! Tomorrow the painted version should be shown...cross your fingers?

I quite like the Saracen faction, but it's either the Westerners or the Demons to buy first for me. I really like the look of the demon starter, especially the female demon/cenobyte with the whips, but I also like the fact that most of the Westerners are Papists.

Hmm. Undead dominatrix or leather-clad nun. Tough choice.

paintjob is online :

I think she's supposed to be some kind of spirit then...
curious to see what some of the painter-hobbyist make of it... in this case I really think the mini is better than the paintjob (not a bad paintjob perse, its just a bit uncontrasted, and doesnt really jump out.)

speaking of jumping out, I just notice she is about to fall hard :D
