With the latest set of releases, I am hoping that 2.0 is now right round the corner for us. Let us hope that it reboots the momentum it initially had before AvP.

I'm just getting back into
I'm just getting back into warzone now after last playing the original version of the game about 15 years ago. My main concern is how much will change with this version 2 rules. Is it worth getting the cards etc or will they do a redesigned and make all the old stuff obsolete like some other game designers do. I want to pick up some more bits but I'm very hesitant with this change on the horizon.

Hmm... I'm a bit more
Hmm... I'm a bit more optimistic about this wave.
Visionaries are nice stylish models, the "nuns with guns" theme might be little over the top though. Also it looks like the models are just little bit oversexed. I much more prefer a realistic approach to Warzone (remember Angelika?), hopefully WZR won't turn into second Space Crusade... Though that one holding her pistols crossed - camp or not, still a great model! Makes me think about starting a Brotherhood army...
Fenris Bikes look good to me, though I'm not a big fan of Imperial or the Clans. Crew models look great, regarding the tractor bikes - I dig them, mostly for their potential for 40K Ork conversions. Which is not a bad thing at all...
Vince Diamond looks so much better than the original. Good work on the muscles/implants and most of all proper legs! I'd get this one for my Cyber, though the price tag is putting me off... It's justified if it's on a 50mm base, but there's no info about that, which sucks...
Now, let's get to the 2.0 / Illian spoiler season! ;)

thanks.
thanks.
Like most people, when you learn to paint, I used to paint with drybrushing and washes back then. Nice effects and rather simple to achive nice effects. Still works well on "rough or dirty" surfaces like fur or undead. But with rather clean models like the marines, you recognise that those techniques are a bit too rough and the result is often not as wanted and looks untidy. So the next level for painters is painting several layers of highlights, getting brighter and brighter. That looks more clean and detailed. So I mostly rough paint the base, the highlights and shadows on, Then give it a wash again with the base color to make the transitions more smooth. And afterwards paint the highlights gently back a bit if necessary

This is a perfect example of
This is a perfect example of keeping it simple with nice clean highlights makes for an impressive paint job. Great stuff I really like how your flesh highlights look.

@Chronomancer the white base
@Chronomancer the white base technique is one that could work really well for Aliens, normally avoid it as don't normally do miniatures with such a all over 1 scheme look. Do you have any pictures you could share of the final look.
As for partially sent I've received my tracking details so not long now.

Although I am a Bauhaus
Although I am a Bauhaus collector, I ordered the visionaries, they are a fantastic modernization of the figure that came from the Cathedral boxset. Also they make great priests proxies when I play 40K with my Bauhaus. I don't see Warzone taking the Space Crusade route in terms of overly sexual design, as that would probably take away from Space Crusades 'appeal'.
Let's see what 2.0 and beyond brings, I really am hoping for a decent model of the Strike Skimmer!
