Son of Hobgoblin's fantasy stuff: now with Khonshu as a HOTT god (and video)

[Hobgoblin]

Dang, that's a scary thing to encounter!

From the (Excellent!) drawing, I thought it'd be about man height, but this is a true horror indeed!

How did the sculpting process go? Standard wire frame and then putty? It's quite a wonderful translation of the vision, through the drawing to the miniature...

Nice brushwork too, I must add

Thanks! He did it with scrunched-up tinfoil and Fimo, making the limbs and head separately. Then he just pinned them with wire and hot-glued them in place.

Great sculpting, I like it very much!

[Little Odo]

Excellent interpretation and sculpting. A truly horrifying being brought to life magnificently!

[Major_Gilbear]

I think they look great, and your lad's certainly got talent.

The drawing in particular though is really excellent; very sinister!

[Hobgoblin]

Thanks, all!

Here's the latest from the 12-year-old:

[Mr. White]

I've been painting models for over 30years...your son is already better than me. :/
Congrats, looks great!

[Mason]

Blimey!
The lad's got talent, all right!
 

Not a bit jealous at all, honestly......
 

[Little Odo]

That is amazing 

[Chief Lackey Rich]

Very nicely done.  Certainly didn't paint that well when I was in grade school - or is 12 middle school?  We had one of those weird districts with no middle school, 7-12 was jammed into one building for me.  Innocent times back then...

[Grumpy Gnome]

Beautiful work! A very talented painter.

[BZ]

Beautiful color transitions!

[Reed]

He sure is on the good way.

[Elk101]

Very nice job.

[beefcake]

He's certainly talented. Very nice. Now I'm going to pack away my paints... forever.

[Hobgoblin]

Thanks, all!

Here's his latest creation - made from tin foil and Fimo and based on a 50mm square for Alien Squad Leader. He's also going to sabot it on a 60mm base for HotT. You'll probably recognise the inspiration ...

He still has to finish the base.
