Just letting you know that I've just put an updated version of my 54mm Dracula up for pre-order on Eolith Miniatures.
New head, hand, feet, trousers, jacket and base, plus a few other details.
Two pieces. Dracula himself and a resin base.

Excellent - I need a new Rouge Trader, so my order will be in shortly. I can heartily recommend both Mr Buddle's models and service to those who have yet to sample Eolith.
Does that get me a discount now? ;)
Wow, this guy looks awesome, haw tall is he exactly (without the base)?
BTW

Rouge Trader, [/i][/size]
So, the rouge Traders are still here ;D
Thank you Flinty.
And Viper, he is 56mm from the bottom of his feet to the top of his head.
Yes Viper - thats right, Im going to base him on an Eddie Izzard concept....
I like the change to the jacket, although that is the only actual change I can readily spot when comparing it with my my currently unused original version.

To be fair, that would probably work fine for a Rogue Trader anyway.
Afterall, "Do you have a flag?" ;)

Easier to play spot the difference with a direct comparison :)
wow Steve! I always liked the old Dracula model but the face on the new version is incredible. I like the new embroidery on the chest as well.
Most shiny.
I liked the plainer chest but I agree with Adam that the new face, raised collar and all, is extremely impressive.
Blaaah! [/dracula impression]
I wish I'd waited to pick one of these up :( Keep us up to date on any new releases Steve! If it's anything like this, you can put me down for a pre-order!
Casters have come through quickly and Dracula is now in stock for immediate shipping along with restocks of Lady Grigoryan and Rose. Perfect time to buy, especially as I have a casting bill to pay and my heating bills have gone through the roof (plus I have to eat).
Is the Old Dracula still availible as well? I have one of the old ones already used in a conversion, and now I think I may have a cunning plan for one of the new and one of the old.
No, the old one is now an ex-mini. He has been consigned to a garlic-soaked coffin beneath an ice lake and warned that if he comes out Stephanie Meyer will write a book about him and ruin his rep forever. But there's a nice shiny new one that is loads better instead.
I've just noticed he's got a new, more kingly looking base as well. It's surprising how much these small details can improve a model.
