March 2012 New releases

I really, really like the Aberration - I think it's one of the very best tentacled monster bursts from a straightjacket minis I've ever seen.
As for the Dogkeeper, the character himself is not bad. Not spectacular, but perfectly OK. The dogs, on the other hand, are brilliant. Some of the best dog minis I've seen. Very characterful in that every dog has a different posture/expression and they all work. Splendid!

I'm posting news and updates about Carnevale on my blog and would be interested in knowing who the sculptors/painters are on the minis you are previewing.
If it's not a secret, can you let us know?

Whoah, the new Aglaopes are extremely creepy. An interesting take on mermaids, that's for sure.
This has been a very strong second wave so far - well done!

I completely agree with issalbotproto and Lemminkäinen about Aglaopes, that toothy maw is going to be fun to paint, been hoping these guys (girls) would be released since I spied them in the rulebook. I can’t wait to add them and the Abberation to my Rashaar force!

A very high quality wave, all in all. I've posted about these on other minis forums and the reception has been very good on the whole.
The new Black Spectre is very imposing and a bold sculpt. It's good to see something unorthodox. Some have not liked the mask on the shadow form, but IMO it fits the overall aesthetic of Carnevale.
I feel that the best pieces on the wave were the Aglaopes, though the Aberration was very close and the rest were good as well. Certainly a very, very promising second wave!

The Nurse and Warden are a bit 'meh', although they seem to be true to the original illustrations, but as with much of the releases thus far, they probably seem better when held first-hand. Perhaps with a bit of reposing they would be better, but I'll probably still get them to my Docs list (or get a box of Rashaar) when my next paycheck comes.
The Dog Keeper looks like something that escaped from Hell Dorado, but given the hodgepodge-composition of the Guild, he suits there rather well. The dogs themselves are brilliant.
The Black Spectre is awesome, as are the Aglaopes (again, they want to make me buy the Rashaar box along with them). The Aberration is extremely cool, but unfortunately I can't take it seriously anymore. I'll most likely get it at some point, but I'll have trouble resisting painting the street tiles with bright disco-like colors, or sticking a disco-ball on top of his erm... head... on a small pole.
