Ahriman?

[Mr Mystery]

Have a look, see wot you fink.

Could also be the rumoured Heresy boxed set to replace Calth.

It's definitely a Thousand Son. And its on a character sizes sprue it appears. If it were a squad member it would likely be on a larger format sprue with more bits and bobbins.

Distinct lack of Tzeentchian symbols leans me toward Heresy era - though it doesn't rule out 40k

[Denzark]

Non-mutated back pack...

[Mr Mystery]

And appears to be standing on a MkIV corpse....

Definitely Heresy Era I'd say - and could still be Ahriman, given he was there and all. The naughty boy.

well like i said, its a character Thousand Son. There are only so many possibilities. I guess it could be "Mr. Generic TS character" for a Calth replacement.

[Denzark]

The piece bottm left of the sprue in pic 1 - is that the corpse - it has a 'diamond' dead centre very similar to that repeated on numerous SW...

I am pretty sure this is for Prospero...

Shame about the dangly bits on the staff - when will GW stop putting < 1mm wide pieces randomly hanging off minis?

[Mr Mystery]

Yay! Space Woof plastics - can't wait to see their character or characters, on the safe assumption we'll be seeing one.

Best load up the cash cannon, no?

[Mr Mystery]

90% sure it is a Heresy Era Ahriman now :)

Though I'd be chuffed if the same model is used for 40k, to show that Thousand Sons just don't change.

[Defenestratus]

According to Faeit its the 30k Ahriman and its going to coincide with two boxed sets being released.. one for 30k and one for 40k.

The 40k one includes Magnus.

[Mr Mystery]

Interesting!

[Kirsten]

plastic heresy special characters would be an exciting development

GW have made a teaser video following the leak (https://www.facebook.com/WarhammerTVteam/videos/240706472991005/). Like, this is...just watch. It's excellent.

Not 100% sold on it assembled.

Reckoning needs painting to appreciate.

[Kirsten]

I love it

I think its head is to large.

[Mr Mystery]

Possibly - but I think it's because the shoulder pads are largely hidden.

Paintjob has really helped me warm to it. Lovely sculpt.

I like the fact that whoever ended up with the model on Ebay is a talented painter.

Although watching the masses of nerds rage over a poorly painted leaked Ahriman model might have been hilarious to witness.

I certainly do like the metallic red, I really need to learn how they do those coloured metallics since I want to paint my aliens in a coloured metallic (similar to beetles and such)

I can't wait to try out the GW gemstone technical paints... it seems like you might be able to get an effect similar to that.

In the past I've done a boltgun base then layered red ink on top of it. It usually comes out purple but if you start with a pinker ink it might come out red.

Yeah, I was going to get those - they are cool paints. I really love the technical range in general and hope they continue to expand it. I use them outside of miniatures too (I use blood for the blood god on my film prop monsters ect)
