In the Victim Girls range in 28 mm at Brother Vinni's, you will find this young woman to beat, nude or partially clothed. link Not my taste for miniatures, but

I agree with you that this is tasteless stuff. The Ukranian slave girl is particularly unpleasant considering how many of them end up in the white slave trade. I guess there may be a use for some of the figures in a rescue scenario. |

"White slave trade". Funny how we're all of a sudden back to using late Victorian yellow media terms unironically. |

Considering shameful exposure at times has been part of tortures and/or punishments of humiliation, I suppopse some of them could be useful in that context. However, the most obvious us I see for any of these would be replacing the wheels on a war machine in a Slaanesh Themed Chaos army. |

If it's not to your taste, why did you bother to link to it? |

Because he neutrally reports the news. |

Reminds me a little of the "Old Midnight Mascot" figures Only a little. They're not as good as the MM's which were larger and conveyed a different sense. I have no doubt these will appeal to many gamers. Not I. |

I think they are disgusting figures and do nothing but reinforce negative stereotypes. |

I was wondering why a Ukrainian girl was blatantly singled out ,then I found out about something "Brother Vinni is sculptor from St. Petersburg (Russia)." Not a good way to go to be honest ,comes across as disrespectful to a nation and women in particular. |

Am I allowed to agree with John the OFM? All the best, John. |

I like nekkid women. I cannot find any possible reason to purchase those |

I guess I could see them being in some sort of fantasy game, but too close to reality for me. Wish I could paint that well though. Dan |

IT seems like some of them could be used as prisoners to add something to a evil villains camp or could be objectives for the good guys to rescue in a skirmish game. If we have uses for dead males and females in games I'm not sure why we couldn't used captured ones. |

how come no one produces male victims.. Some settings are gender neutral in their rescue scenarios.. |

I think I much prefer Pulp Figures' Cringing Captives set. More traditional damsel in distress types. From a strictly military point of view, if the troops are busy stripping and raping captives, they are no longer a disciplined, effective unit. From which, we could conclude that these are prisoners of irregulars, militia, or other minimally disciplined force. Definitely too dark for my tastes as they are. Could they be used as the basis for conversions to something more useful? Maybe, but nothing is coming to mind. Grelber |

Because he neutrally reports the news. And repeats the Hobby News

Well, to add something positive here
I have Vinnies Landsknechts range as well as some of his "not Gaunts Ghosts", and the casting quality of his resin is superb. |
