I’ve said it before, but here it goes again ... beautiful work!

And I really like that hunting scene too.  I’m jealous.

Thank you a lot for the comments guys! :)


After a while playing on 15mm I felt like my minis lacked a bit of personality, so I decided to switch to 28mm. I have been buying animals for months and made several attempts to sculpt or convert figures for the hunters...

Now I'm sculpting some Neanderthals as a side project and I would like to show you how it is going.
That is the first figure. He stands 26,5mm to the eye when actually standing (roughly 1,65m in real life). The head seems bigger on the photo as in the reality, I think. It's still wip as I have to finish the hand and do some clothing (and eyelids!) but I think you get the idea:






Details of the head:


Comparision with a Homo Sapiens (well, he'll be a Homo Ergaster but I wasn't happy with the head, so I put one of my indians' only for the photo  lol. It doesn't matter because they were roughly the same height and build as Homo Sapiens. Just ignore the head  ;)):



What do you guys think?

It may be unfair, but my first impression was "Benny Andersson of Abba!"...  ::)
In fact he looks peferctly good to me. I would take him for a Neanderthaler.

Perhaps it could be easier if we find a way to convince you that the next one has to be female... >:D

:D You will be happy now  ;)

I had already started this figure before you wrote this but now I have finally almost finished it  :) I have to sculpt the clothing yet and then she is done:











Looking forward to sculpt the next one!

I am happy! That is another beautiful sculpt you‘ve made.
Make options: Unclad and with clothes. I need both!
I look forward to see more of that clan. Release them as soon as possible!
