Unboxing Raging Heroes - Kristina Karlstein 'Armoured Division Officer'

"Advance..."

In this feature we're going to look at one of the characters for the Iron Empire...

For those of you who are interested in the background for Raging Heroes various 'Toughest Girls of the Galaxy' projects then the link to their original Kickstarter can be found here, their last project is here and their own website is located here. Most of their original Kickstarter is now available to purchase retail. There is also apparently a game system in development but until then I'm sure there are many other systems that you can be using them for...

First we'll have a brief look at the background for the Iron Empire and then we'll meet Kristina Karlstein their Armoured Division Officer.

THE IRON EMPIRE (IE)
The Iron Empire is made up of exiled people that have somehow stumbled upon necromantic knowledge from alien pharaonic gods. They combine Prussian and Germanic influences with some kind of Aegyptian cyber necromancy that allow them to raise the dead and create bio-mechanical aberrations.

Here's pictures of both sides of the unassembled model parts.

A Brief Note About Resin Models.
Also it's worth noting that many resin models have a slightly greasy feel caused by the substance they use to stop them sticking to the moulds during production and this can cause issues with paint not sticking to the model properly. Carefully washing the parts in soapy water will remove this should your model be unduly affected. Parts that are bent (or that aren't and you want to be) can be corrected by heating up slightly in warm water and then bending into the required configuration.

Kristina Karlstein - Assembled
A two part model. There's a piece on the underside of the sword that's quite delicate so be careful when removing the 'flash' and when attaching the part to the model

Kristina Karlstein - Extras
Here's a look at some renders, painted pictures and early artwork from the Kickstarter process that may interest you all.
