Title: Holy Protectors of the Sacred Word
Post by: whiffwaff on 01 March 2012, 07:41:27 PM
Some more greens to share.

The leader is 55mm tall (60 to the top of his antlers) and the knights are 28mm tall.

Those are not not-Knights Who Say Ni obviously. They are not-Knights Who Say Ekki-Ekki-Ekki-Ekki-PTANG. Zoom-Boing. Z'nourrwringmm of course!  ::)

Awesome; those are on my 'unrequired but still absolutely needed' list now...  :D

++EDIT++ Modified to say one more word: IS!!  lol

Spend twice as long on each one and they'll be twice as good Adam, there's no hard edges on them. That fur trade fig you posted was much nicer, these are an unfortunate step backwards.  :?

Well all 5 figures took a total of 3 and a half hours and to be honest I was happy with the end result.

I can see both sides on this one from Mr and Mr HPL, kudos to you for the short sculpt time however, might be worth picking up on some of Andrew's points and sharpen up the helmets and horns a touch?

They you can get on with sculpting the path!!!!

A PAATHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

:D

well, not all the works must be done at your best, like there are fast paintjobs made by very good painters, there might be fast sculpts made by a talented sculptor. The quality isn't very good, but it is the result he was aiming to! ;)

No, it isn't thankfully ;), but people can still enter into useful discussions, just as this isn't frother's, this isn't TMP and just about blowing smoke up people's arses either. Having said that I'd probably get them if cast as well its python and secondly; they also have a Brian Froud goblin look to them.

So when are you putting a tutorial up for shrubbery and path design? ;)

hahaha, the models are lovely...

I did get confused earlier in this thread though, just after the last posts I realized there were 2 people with Lovecraft avatars, so I didn't understand why the artist was telling himself to use more time...

Silly me  ::)

A bit of thread necromancy here...

Is any company going to cast these up and sell them? I would REALLY love to get a set!

Thanks.
