Unusual set of jungle fighters, if they were for real I would be volunteering to help them remove any leeches.

Great sculpts ruined by pointless and impractical nudity. Sad.

I appreciate them. Nudity doesnīt spoil them. There are enough clad combat miniatures, but only a few for pulpy and cartoony action. Well done Bother Vinni!

2nd that. as an obvious nod to catachan jungle fighters I would have ordered them right now were they not lacking the proper outfit to match their armament. There are few enough female military types in that style...
As they are now they can only be used for an "unexpected attack on the garrison" vignette.

I like one of the jungle fighters the least naked one. The rest they could have been great models and Vinni is clearly skilled sadly pretty much every female figure they do is hyper sexualised.

Victoria miniatures just did there own Cadians and they got it right. They made female soldiers not strippers with guns.

There is a good chance that tits an ass is what sells and I cant really blame a sculptor for going where the money is but it does mean I personally have no interest in them

I wonder for years now why painted versions of such sculpts donīt make their way to the www very often.
Do people buy and hoard them unpainted secretly?
Do people paint them secretly and hide them away?

I wouldn't buy them either  ;)
I mean... what would I use them for, other than to say 'I own this'.

Nothing wrong with bare skin.

The problem is suspending one's disbelief in situations when you wouldn't normally have bare skin.
