I really like the mini, it's a great sculpt. You can hardly see such a realistic proportions and pose of the naked human body in this scale. so bravo! :eusa_clap:
On the other side, the pose an d the context of the mini is on the verge of being offensive to the women and especially to the Ukrainians. It coresponds directly to the tragic period this nation is going through, especially the women, so it might be wise to at least think of another purely imaginary name, so it doesn't bear any real life connotations. Especially if you want to have some commercial succes with it.

But, if not, tag it as real art and then you are safe :engel:

This would make an awesome flagellant unit filler.  Paint a chaos tattoo for Slanesh on her, and put a sign over her head that reads heretic.  Perhaps have a Witch hunter holding the chain that she could be attached to.

Either way, awesome mini!

I like the sculpt, but really have no use for it. They heads however could be useful. Have you thought of making a line of heads (Both male and female) for conversions? there are few very good ones I think. Hasselfree is the only one I'm even halfway satisfied with, and yours looks very good.

Thanks all!
Yes, I thought about female heads set, but it will be Postapoc for a start.

In terms of scale Brother Vinni's stuff matches up very well with WH stuff. The girls will be a little slimmer then the boys but thats a good thing i think :P

I have the Joan the Captive miniature which i am painting up as an objective marker. The slavegirl could easily be included on a base with her to give the Empire boys some noble goal to go after. Plenty of baddies take slaves after all. 

Plus the Iris female paladin i am using as a Warrior Priest :)

This just struck me: given the title, did Brother Vinni already know something at the time European leaders did not?  :engel:
