Is it just me... or both the posing and the painjob are worse than even the worst post-concept expectations? : _(
Looks like a superhero landing pose, need more angles to give a final decision. Still better than the "standing around looking vaguely tactical" poses that typified the early N3 > HSN3 era.
Mukhtar knows that an agile warrior is a surving one ;) :D About the mini - I also need more pictures. Still I don't like the design itself, it doesn't feel Haqqislamic for me. I ordered a box of Nahabs and plan to convert a bit the girl with Red Fury to look more like a fighter, less like a peepee girl and use her as Nahab or Mukhtar, depending on the armylist.

Spot on: we need more pictures. And a different paintjob. Defintiely a different paintjob. He does look better than on the concept art, but the pose is...weird. And the paintjob doesn't help him at all.
I actually really like the model details and the paint job. They are much better than I expected. Darn shame about the pose though. Plus, as I think I mentioned in the release thread, I don't understand why this profile option was prioritized over the others.
Hmm, I guess I'll put the guy on a waiting list. To be back to once there are more of them. The pose wouldn't be that bad if not for that weridly outstretched shotgun arm. Therefore, an arm-swap with another Mukhtar might be a way to fix him. But we need conversion material.
While the pose leaves a lot to be desired, I am glad a 6-2 unit is finally shown to be in dynamic motion. Both Hollowmen and the Arjuna are static as hell.
