This week, something wicked this way comes.
Not to say the past few weeks have not been equally so, but there is something downright sinister about the Angelius. Maybe it's the pose, maybe it's the name, maybe the combination of the two. Whatever it is, these six winged beasts give fire to the appearance of the army. There is something truly striking about this model in comparison to even other warbeasts.
The shepherd by contrast is an excellent example of how to turn an ordinary concept into an extraordinary sculpt. The shepherds are defined in the Everblight army book as being outcasts, not close enough to other members of the race to be fully integrated, but clearly not as powerful as the warlocks who conjure full warbeasts. There is a certain desolation to the description in the book, which carries through in the sculpt. The shepherd is efficient, alien in their way, yet distinctly part of the force as a whole.
Next week we press on with a plastic and magnetized Carnivean as well as Kallus, the first and only male Nyss warcaster in the entire army.
