Title: Mass Effect Shephard Mini
Post by: mmacgregor on April 22, 2012, 10:25:56 PM: Hi,

I commisioned Brother Vinni to sculpt a mini for me and it looks like it is now up for sale on his site. Check it out if you are interested.

Thanks,

Matt

I'd love a Shep figure, but my Shep has tits, is black, and has cropped red hair. She doesn't look anything like the figure. :)

All the different guns as options would probably be pushing it a bit, though.

I always thought the Geth would make great miniatures. I think I would buy some Geth if somebody made them.

I'd love some troopers in N7 armour though. And Geth. Geth are cool.

I'd love to see some Geth and some of the more common allies, like Wrex, Ashley, and Tali.

Post by: Nimrod on April 23, 2012, 05:54:26 PM: Very good idea. I always wanted to get some minis from mass effect universe.
I would like to see some Geths and Krogans in the future. :)

Have to say the commissioned one looks very stilted and static. Not keen tbc, (but then its not my commisson so as long as you are happy, all good.

Post by: dwartist on April 23, 2012, 11:48:14 PM: nice - I like it and might just order a couple. Agree with CV about G.O.T but take a look at the new Sedition Wars faction...http://dwartist.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/samaritens.html

Post by: Commander Vyper on April 24, 2012, 11:16:04 PM: I did say those Samaritans were perfect for Shephard, male and female David. ;)

There's a guy selling "Frogan" prints on shapeways that look pretty tempting, but I'm still to dubious of figure prints to try them out:

Post by: A_Train on April 25, 2012, 06:26:36 PM: I've seen the frogans as well, but I'm doubting their quality. The options for pritn materials all seem to include 'flexible' in the wording.
