Edward IV a kitbash
« on: October 20, 2021, 02:31:03 PM »

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

I have a bad case of prescient nostalgia. The future's not what it used to be.

Absolutely brilliant!

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

Thanks for sharing.
