TallGiraffe 3,447 Posted January 27, 2018 I don't think they will be as bad as people are making them out to be. Those appear to be computer renders not like the actual plastic. 2 Omegaclone and devin.pike.1989 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unsavory types who have horrible things to say about women in general. I think that Leia will be just fine. Wait till someone like sorastro gets his have on it. Then we can see the true potential of the mini. 5 WAC47, Timinater, Sentry71 and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Omegaclone 111 Posted January 27, 2018 I can’t wait to paint the Rebel Fleet Troopers in different schemes. I also think I want two Leias one to paint normal and maybe one in more extreme colors. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the paint job at the pictures of the article was! Her skin to dark and her eyes way to black. With lighter color for the face she will look good! 1 devin.pike.1989 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddwarfer 103 Posted January 27, 2018 True, I'm sure she'll look a lot better once she's painted by someone more skillful / someone who has a lot more time to spend than the person who did the one in the article. I personally still don't like the overall pose or figure proportions though, but each to their own. I hope I'm pleasantly surprised when people start showing off their own versions, I have faith!

Well so far I like the look of everything.....except this. Somebody mentioned it and I cant unsee it, looks like a 1990s Halfling or female dwarf sculpt. Wasnt Leia slim and waif? This model looks like its been doing the shot put for West Germany? 1 wintermoonwolf reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This model looks like its been doing the shot put for West Germany? Hahaha! Very true. Maybe with sand paper on the cheek bones and the hands to bring it to a more natural proportion? Is there a way to smooth the plastic back to the original state or the like after sanding it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ralgon 1,005 Posted January 28, 2018 I foresee a lot of people using IA leia, scale be damned. Funnily enough though she's pretty inline with a lot of the wotc and SW:minatures poses (unless shes in slave gear) google spat out at me.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
