Having a family member sculpted as a miniature. Yes or No?

[Blackwolf]

Rings true Arlequin,however I have been sculpted by a member (Christian) as Greywolf the Dwarf,my copy still not painted; he is possibly the least heroic miniature I own,just like me.

Sure, if we were talking 'doing me' in a fantasy or sci-fi, or even a Medieval or other non-20th Century context, then I'd likely be asking Mark where to put my clothes... I may have got the wrong end of the stick there, but you know what I mean.

Dear oh dear Arlequin,haha.

There's quite a disturbing willingness to get naked running through this .
It may be worth noting gentleman before you offer such things that it is close to winter. Also I sculpt physically accurate 28mm figures, scale can be cruel when converting inches .(an inch is less than point five of a millimeter)

Be grateful that the offer isn’t coming from Brother Vinni. He’d have you posing naked, chained to a pillar with a giant spear disappearing up yer wotsit. 

I’ve probably related this before but one of the most disturbing things I’ve ever seen was a commissioned work requested by the customer of a friend of mine. The chap brought his own reference material into the shop. It was a 1970s Berlei lingerie ad, slightly grubby but clearly lovingly and tenderly torn from the pages of The Women’s Weekly. There was an unhealthy amount of speculation (mostly mine, if truth be told) as to whether the model in the ad resembled this particular patron of the arts’ mother at an earlier and presumably influential period in both their lives.

The commission was completed, money had changed hands and the end result was a pretty good likeness but Christ on a bike there was something incredibly fucking creepy about it all. There are some genuinely strange fuckers in this hobby.

In that case, you'd best sculpt my bottom half as a donkey

I thought it was very in-period and Bohemian. No pleasing you is there?

Not to mention that that point-five will be even smaller given the cold... 

The Viking part of my heritage definitely blessed me with "combat tackle", which is to say, it only shows up when needed. Wouldn't look very impressive were I to model!
