AoW goes straight to figure number 50, that’s a reason to congratulate and personally I hope, Felix and his team will create something extraordinary.
On that extreme high level of AoW it’s not easy to make something outstanding. I don’t think that Felix and AoW needs inspiration from outside, cause with every new figure they proof that they have enough creativity. But maybe we enlarge “the horizon” with some ideas a little outside the norm…
What can be this “next big thing”? AoW started with a Dwarf, so a Dwarf will be consequent. In addition to that, I love Dwarfs, so I vote for a Dwarf!
But AoW has made already the greatest Dwarfs, what is missing? What can hit the community? I don’t know, but I have some ideas
Felix makes terrific Berserker; I think there is no doubt about it. He made already a lot (but not enough ;-) of them, where could be the upgrade?
Maybe a Berserker mounted on something angry…. I like the idea of a sabbertooth with a bloody Berserker on it’s back, spinning axe and hammer…
But that beast needs a structured fur, cause I can not paint a plain one
The other idea is a little more extreme, I’m dreaming of a dwarven War-Walker!!! Something a little steampunk… a big, angry machine, walking through the arena, smoke comes out of the smoke pipes, oil is on the links, mighty runes around the steel body protecting it, the earth vibrates under his heaviness… a torn orc shaman on the base… smashing the enemies with a steel fist and firing with a canon on those enemies, which are running away (or on magicians

). Controlled by a total insane Dwarf with a cigar in his mouth and madness in his eyes!
This will be a hit for me (and it could be used instead of a gyrocopter

)
@ Felix: if this is not the right place for a threat like this or it is too early, close it, no problem
