The thing is, the resin casting process allows for more detail than metal, or especially plastic casting. Some of the detail on the infantry and characters in particular really surpasses what could be done in another medium.

Another issue is the sculpting material itself. At least one of the forgeworld sculptors uses/used wax for sculpting models. It allows for fine detail, but it's too fragile to stand up to the process used for making a master for metal models.

New Releases

Many people have got in touch with us recently to ask when we are going to release some new models, and it's true you haven't seen anything new from us in a while due to how busy we've been. I'm going to remedy that now with four new exciting releases for Warhammer 40,000, all of which are available to pre-order now for release the week commencing the 20th of January.

Death Korps of Krieg Engineer Squad

Death Korps of Krieg Engineer Squad

The latest addition to our Death Korps range are the new Engineer models, which some of you may have seen previewed at recent shows. This pack is comprised of five superbly detailed models in heavy armour, armed with shotguns and they come equipped with individual detailed equipment packs and ammo pouches. These fantastic models, designed by Simon Egan, are a new option for the Death Korps forces intended to fight at the forefront of trench raids and tunnel assaults - as will be detailed in the Imperial Armour Volume 6 book to be released next year.

Renegade Militia Command Squad

Renegade Militia Command Squad

New re-enforcements are available for the Chaos Renegade Militia in the shape of the new Command Squad for the Vraksian Renegades, but of course they are also perfectly usable for your own Cultist or Traitor Guard armies as well. This great and hugely detailed five-model command squad comprises a renegade officer, a veteran trooper, a special weapons trooper with a plasma gun, a vox-caster operator, and an icon bearer. Designed by Mark Bedford, these are fantastically characterful models, and show the touch of the Ruinous Powers starting to become more evident in the renegade forces.

Death Korps Commissar 2

Death Korps Commissar 2

Also new for the Death Korps (although I'm sure it will appeal to many other Imperial Guard players and collectors) is a new Commissar model designed by Simon Egan. This Commissar, dynamically posed charging into the fray and drawing his blade, would make a perfect character to lead your Death Korps Infantry Squad Advancing on the tabletop or in a diorama.

Renegade Militia Apostate Preachers

Renegade Militia Apostate Preachers

Also joining the Renegades are the Apostate Preachers of Vraks to spur on their forces with non-stop litanies of hate. Designed by Mark Bedford, this pack contains two individual models, marked by the early stages of infection by the Plague God, with Chaos beginning to show his hand in Vrak's rebellion. You can also use these models as Demagogues, champions for Traitor units, or even Familiars for your Chaos Space Marine Sorcerers. They are a worthy addition to any Chaos Force or collection.
