Title: Edward IV a kitbash
Post by: Wilgut Spleens on October 20, 2021, 02:31:03 PM: https://wilgut.blogspot.com/2021/10/terminator-in-15th-century.html

Why are there so few suitable figures for this giant of a king?

In a world of treachery, incompetence and vitriolic hatred, Edward stands literally and figuratively, head and shoulders above his peers.

Here's a kitbash and a probable explanation for his huge size and seeming invincibility

Kitbashing is something I've never tried, so I am in awe of those who can do it this well.

Thanks for sharing.

Great idea and the modelling and painting are fantastic :-*
