Post by: Harwood Hobbies on October 05, 2017, 02:11:43 PM: Very cool! What is he mutating into? Are those bumps/sores on his back?
Title: Re: Mutating sculpt
Post by: Alan maguire on October 05, 2017, 02:43:24 PM: Harwood Hobbies

I think this is him finished now

Yes , sores / bumps, etc...

You can carry on adding more but chances are he will end up over done if that makes sense.

Thanks for the kind words

.......Not sure about the massive claw though.....

No, it is not really in keeping with the "mutant human" proportions of everything else in the set. The others I really like as "Cursed Earth" or "Rad Waste" types, this one not so much.

Yes i agree

Thanks for your honesty! ;)

Post by: Exiledadmiral on November 07, 2017, 02:48:53 AM: These are seriously nice. I don't know if you ever played the Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind but your first sculpt puts me in mind of the lame corprus that you fought in the game around the red mountain. Freaked me out good and proper as a child.

Post by: robh on December 21, 2017, 10:36:02 PM: It is a shame that KS is running over Christmas. I would love to pick up a few of those characters but not possible for a while.
Hopefully they will be available later on also.

Great sculpts Alan. Have you ever thought about doing Cthuloid mutants for earlier historical eras?
Title: Re: Mutating sculpt
Post by: Alan maguire on December 22, 2017, 10:27:00 AM: robh

I should imagine they will be available

Are Cthuloid mutants for earlier historical eras the same as cthulhu mythos ?

Thanks for the kind words.

Bit out of scope of the PA board, but in brief yes.

With very few exceptions the Cthulhu ranges are based on the author's 1890s-1920s timeline (or brought forward to modern times) so costumes and fashions all relate to then.
However one of the main tenets of the novels and stories is the "countless aeons" of the elder gods, and hence their followers and assorted cults. They are mentioned explicitly from Ancient Egyptian, Ancient Polynesian, Pre contact American Indian, MesoAmerican and Amazonian tribes so pretty much any historical era could be used.

I think it would be great to see mutated cultists and investigators like you have here but from the 17th century for example. Allowing scenarios like the Salem trials or the Hopkins/Stearne investigations in the UK to change from Gothic Horror Satanist witches to a more sinister Lovecraftian aspect.

Thanks for all the insight!

I didnt think of that at all.

I'll have a pop at it and see what comes out :)

Gives things a lot more scope!
