Norsgard has just released a new model for their forthcoming game, Oracle of Storms (9.00 €). The Oracle was sculpted by industry veteran Nicolas N’Guyen based on artwork by Nico Kopf.
Norsgard is made by the same people who published Sapphire Wars about a year or so ago. I’m not sure what happened to the latter, but according to their Facebook page they’re still planning to release models and a game. Between the handful of models produced for Sapphire Wars and the two made for Norsgard so far, I think the Oracle of Storms is by far their strongest concept, but then I’ve a bias for the artist’s work.
If you’ve never heard of Nico, you will. He’s an up-and-comer in this industry with a promising future ahead of him. To date Nico has done concept work for Norsgard, Anakron Miniatures Studio (Cartomancer, forthcoming), and Mannikin Studios (ogre mercenary, currently being sculpted), but expect this list to start growing soon.
