Martian Trader
« on: March 11, 2012, 03:27:04 PM »
Hi all,

I've been toying with this idea for a while and decided to finally get started on it.

A diminutive race of Martian Traders. What makes them Martians or Traders? Well they'll have some beasts of burdens and a big ol' war caravan… Plus it's just how they "formed" in my mind.

Test figure below. Pose is a bit static on this one as it was, well… a test! These are going to be a little "evening project" for me over the next few weeks.






Cheers

Adam

Ha!  You beat me to it, Aggro, but that is exactly what I was thinking.

Well depending on the size & shape of this guy & any fellows that Adam makes to go with him, one could always mix in some Jawas painted more on a Bedouin theme than Jawa brown. After all this guy looks alot like a short version of some VSF martians I have seen elsewhere.
