Really like them, especially Starlord. I had never heard of Guardians before the film came out, and loved it. If I wasn't sticking solely to 15mm, I would definitely want some of these. fortunately I managed to get some in the smaller scale, but yours are great!

Post by: Cherno on November 03, 2014, 11:31:43 PM: The only criticism I would give is that Drax's pectorals look strange with those three dents in it, and that Groot seems to look a little bit stockier than in the movie (if that is what you are going after). The Starlord looks perfect :) Maybe consider an optional head without mask?

Thought this was going to be repaints of the Heroclix ones. Like yours better.

You're right Drax muscles are not good I'm not happy with that so I think that I will make a new one.
Groot is bigger than he should be, but I'm not sticked to the movie only I like also comics books where sometimes he is realy big :D
Gamora will also be a mix of movie and comics book.

I don't like space warriors with swords so no sword.

I've got a version of Rocket Raccoon on the painting table for the painting club.

Post by: Anpu on December 07, 2014, 08:41:05 AM: It was not sculpted by me, I am far too hamfisted for that. It is from Bombshell miniatures.
I only did the painting. I must say I envy your skills in sculpting since it is hard to get suitable figures for the rest of the Guardians without turning to heroclix soft bendy plastic.

I think that everyone who can paint miniatures can also sculpt or at least make some conversions. I'm not talented but I've spend a lot of time to learn how to sculpt something that looks more or less like human (or alien :)).
You can find a lot of sculpting tutorials. Maybe some Infinity miniatures can serve as a base to make some conversions.Try and dont give up :D

Post by: The-closet-gamer on December 09, 2014, 04:41:56 PM: Appleseed! Love it and you really really need to do Briareos and a landmate. The redesign is EPIC. In the early 90s a set of 25mm minis of Deunan and Briareos was released but even in 25mm they seemed quite small, more closer to 20mm. Do it now for I demand it...... Please!
