Title: Noticeably F. A. T. in the hizzouse!
Post by: JollyBob on 14 October 2008, 07:58:08 PM
Mentioned elsewhere that I just got him at the weekend. One of those minis that just screams "paint me!" as soon as you open the box...

The big dog, the baddest muddyfunster in the ghetto, the one, the only, Noticeably F. A. T.!

Needs sealing and matt coating, so apolgies for the slight shine in parts - GW ink while brilliant, does not dry flat.

Comments and criticisms all welcome as usual.

Wave yo' muddyfunnin' hands, muddyfunsters!  lol

Edited for picture going a bit dodgy...

Love it, Sir Jolly!

Especially how you conceived what we in Sweden call the 'bögsträng' (area of hair growth from the navel towards the groin) and the 'Gällivarehäng' (litt. 'surplus fabric which forms folds and creases between the buttocks while the trouser waist is also resting on a lower level on the aforementioned muscle mass than what is normally socially acceptable; a custom which is in Sweden associated with the northern mining town of Gällivare').

Like how the the Eskimos have a so many words for snow, we in Sweden have a thousand words for how trousers make, or do not make, creases between your buttocks.

Black Hat civillian actually, but they are very similar.

Hammershield, unfortunately the "bogstrang" (don't know how to make umlauts, sorry) is just shadow, but it does give that impression doesn't it? And you may be interested to know that around these parts it is known as a "crab-ladder".  lol

Crab ladder you say? A most illustrative of you Saxons!
Being permanently in the want of knowledge I certainly am receptive to that type of insight.
By the way, 'bögstäng' is not really PC. I wouldn't use it as a colloquialism any old how as you come and visit me in Sweden.

This place is so informative. I now know many more descriptive terms for those unappealing body areas  lol

Shame about  'bögstäng', as I was going to use it as the name for a Swedish explorer in my DA games.......


Oh, great figure by the way JB. I love the Wu Tang Clan logo!

I know what you mean about it needing to be painted. This fella is sitting on top of my lead mountain demanding to be painted ASAP:

I'm thinking maybe a West Brom shirt [but I can't do stripes  :(] or a much simpler Oakland Raiders get-up.

Good Paintjob and a very nicely painted logo on his back! :)


Over here in Germany, we call it 'Maurerdekolleté'.
I think it might be translated into: 'Bricklayer's Cleavage'... lol

Thanks again for all your comments guys. I must admit though, I am slightly worried that you all seem to be fixating on his bum crack.  :o

As great as the bum crack and crab ladder maybe (and they are  :D )

Can I just say yo, yo, remarkably blinging, what, old chap. Or what ever the Colonials would have us say...

No, no, no, wrong, wrong, wrong. That kind of talk is reserved for rappers, and gansta' wannabes in the cities. We rural folk can actually speak real English(though with a funny mix of various European accents hashed together). Yeah, so just take off, ya' hoser, eh? ;)
