It seems possible - the first Thor was 2011 I think, and AoS was, what, 2015?

Given that GW concept work is done years in advance of the actual releases, it is possible some of the GW team were thoroughly enjoying their Thor while working on AoS.

I think the sculpt of that Cadian lady does what it's supposed to do but it doesn't excite me at all. A bit "clinical". And that goes for more of their current sculpts imho. Not really that surprising, when compard to the stuff they released about a year or 2 ago, the Warcry, Necromunda, Warhammer Quest, Underworlds Warbands. I couldn't find the money to keep up ( I tried, though

) but nowadays I see releases and I think: meh. Just more of the same. Even the Ash Wastes don't excite me that much, it feels they could have done so much more with it. And the new Horus Heresy stuff? No, not going to buy into that, bores the ... out of me?
Ah well, at least if gives me time and funds to get a dent in my backlog

.

I suppose there might be some influences, but I don't really get that vibe... Maybe more subtle than overt influences?

Well, they do both have hammers...

We played quite some Deadzone lately during the global campaign for Magnetar. This was our last game...Plague against Nameles. Fun game, as always!

I haven't really cottoned on to warcry yet, but I like the lizardmen/seraphon ruins wrapped by trees.

Yeah, it seems GW has been really catching my attention with their terrain lately.

While I'm going through the beautifully cathartic process of finally selling off all my 40K stuff (and funding...all my other hobby projects) I really like the look fo the Kroot/Imperial Navy Breachers from the Kill Team announcement - solely for use in other games. I also like the Underworld Witch Hunter band, looks very useful for Solomon Kane style adventures.

I like those Kroot too. I'll be addeing them to my Tau at some stage (looking at expanding my kroot force.)

New votann vehicle

Article here https://www.warhammer-community.com/2022/07/18/put-pedal-to-the-metal-aboard-the-rugged-leagues-of-votann-sagitaur-atv/

I was ready to not like it, but it actually looks pretty good. Another vehicle to add to the plastic mountain

I like it and with the scale creep it’s probably right size fit for normal 28mm sci for figures .

Well shit, I really like that.

Sunken rivets for the win

Pretty much like everything about it except the front mounted guns, those are just too silly.

Grabby arms and a radar for the top gun

I like it and will probably use it alongside some stargrave troopers.

It has a bit of a spacehunter look, is spacehunter had had a budget of more then 50p.
