I know this sounds weird, so please don't misunderstand this question. The Galadriel model from the white council set, with the spread arms and ragged cloths? Is it just me.. or does the model have nipples?? I've only ever seen it on the web and on the box, but to me it seems like it does. Sorry :oops:

You are right. Even though she is supposed to be wearing armour, there is sculpted on nipples on her breasts. GW does like scul;pting women a little nuder than they appear in LotR and this is probably theur attempt to get under the radar :wink:

To be fair, ancient generals and emperors had nipples on their armours too.

No argument there. So why complain? ;)

Ah, yes they did. That gives GW further justification for being naughty, especially since I don't think any of their other models are wearing cuirasses.

Quite a lot, in fact. All the Gondor heroes in armour, for one. A few of the orcs, as well, and Uruk-Hai (half-cuirasses, but still)
