And again, Kingdom Death minis are NOT bad sculpts! Bad designs? Controversial? (in certain cases) Hell yes! Bad sculpt? No way!

@ knightkrawler
As for Nagash, you can't really talk about proportions when talking GW. Everything is horribly disproportionate. Skulls have always been. If you take a skull from a skeleton box and compare it to any human, you'll find that the skull is even BIGGER than a fleshy head!
In the GW universe skulls swell up when not confined in flesh - duuh!

And are you kidding me with the million skulls thing? That's awesome? Are you seriously just looking for something to be wrong?

You can't start mixing in who made what. Then it should just be "worst GW sculpt".
I think the limit should be sculpts that were ever commercially available.

Voted worst mini ever. Worst... Ever...

I hate the mini. Always have, even back in '96 when I saw my first Warhammer stuff. It's just bad, taken out of or into its own time.
That being said, it's not the worst mini ever. Not by a far stretch. But I can understand how anyone can vote for exactly that.
The face is bad, hands down. He looks more like Pennywise than a skull.

next time i sculpt something and someone says...hmm the face dont look right.......im sending them here instead lol
they are...very very very bad.
i think we are starting to see a problem with kickstarter very similar to when itunes came out.
when itunes said "anyone can sell their music" you had and still do have people that in their own head they are musicians trying to sell god awful aboninations they call music on to the poor sods of the world.
kickstarter generally has a decent level of quality. i think people understand what others want. but then you have this sort of monstrosity where i bet his mom said "ooh they look good" like any mother would...of course..but

they arent good are they!

Obviously mommy didn't take a gander at the tits on the taurus. She would have been more... passive over her review of her son's sculpting of the awkward and kneeless.
What's it called? Titzonatawruz?

I'm just noticing I can't really look away either. It's like a car crash.
Only I could give first aid on the site of a car crash. Here, at Kevin's little Dork Workshop... the 11yr-old daughter of my girlfriend could give first aid, while I stand and try to comprehend what went wrong.
