As the leader of my newly minted warband, I picked the Abhorrant Archregent, not necessarily for its characteristic, being a total WArcry newby and not much of a competitive gamer (narrative gaming is where it’s at for me), but for the amazing sculpts GW produced.
A a warning to newcomers to our hobby, UI will say that the miniature, despite its amazing level of details and assembly quality, is not for beginners. The parts assembly is quite complex, although they are very well fitted (well except for the head but I will soon get to that). Pay very close attention to the provided diagrams and as usual always dry-fit twice, glue once.
Now for the bad part, or at least the ‘not so good’ part. The head of the miniature is divided in two halves, which of course causes an unsightly assembly line in the middle of the forehead. I will thus repat that this miniature is not for newcomers as a resolution to this issue involves the trusty green stuff and a fine sculpting tool. Green stuff should be applied to the forehead and to the chin and smoothed delicately so as not to obscure the exquisite facial details.
