I finished my Corvus Cabal last night.
These are some really lovely models. I think with a tiny bit of conversion they would work well as some Ratskin Renegade equivalent in Necromunda. Or if you had a Necromunda game set on Deliverance they would work well as the Cawdor faction.
There is enough detail to keep most of these guys interesting without having so much that it is difficult to paint. The exception being the leader. She has a ton of bits on her and armour here and there. There were constantly things I was going back to do because I had missed them.
Despite its size the Shrike Talon was not as difficult to paint as the leader. It is by far the biggest model in the group. It is also my least favourite because it is difficult to imagine how it is supposed to be fighting. I guess it jumps on people with the Talons on its feet.
This is the best model in the set in my opinion. The male Spire Stalker. He is dynamically posed. He has a good combination of weapons and is not bogged down with extraneous equipment.
The other Spire Stalker is a good model as well. She is the only one in the group that has a visible face for some reason. Although I didn't manage to capture that in the picture.
The cabalist models are all very well done. They are nicely posed with options for spear, familiar or two close combat weapons. You only get one familiar, which is okay as it seems the least useful option.
I'm not sure how these guys will play. They rules and special abilities make me think they will work a lot like Untamed Beasts but with a lot more climbing. We'll see how they go today though and I'm sure I'll have a report tonight or tomorrow.
