That's really impressive!  :-*

He looks really good and I totally agree about the visor - that face is too nice.

Really looking forward to seeing him painted.

Thanks, fellas!
Much appreciated.
 :D

Now, get him painted and make him known in the arenas as Rutgerus Hauerus, Hoppo with a Spear :)

I may just do that, sir.
 :D



....... let's see him take on the scary little girl cultist though!

 lol
That did make me chuckle, Steve.
I may have to set up a piccie of that just for a laugh.




Just to wind Bibbles up I am going to announce that I have finished the arena floor/hex mat thingy and I will post a piccie to prove it later (or even tomorrow if it turns out that I am too lazy to get it done tonight....).

Turns out that I was too lazy after all.

It gave Bibbles a chance to have a funny turn, though, so that was probably a good thing in the end.
Let him get it out of his system and all that.... ::)



Here is the arena/hex mat/thingy upon which all my gladioli will either meet a sad or beg for forgiveness,,,,,






The true colour is somewhere between the two pictures. One was taken with flash and one without.


It was hand carved out of acrylic by Bibbles using his lightsaber and is a very fine thing indeed.

Or it was until I messed it up by slapping stuff on it.....
.
If you want one for yourself, you had better bother him via PM as I do not think that they are in the shop.

What the hell have you done to that  ???

Left it covered in yoghurt in a warm place no doubt  ::)

As soon as I get some time to cut stock they will be in the catalogue...

(looks great by the way  ;) )

I was half expecting marble floors for the mighty and (in)famous House of Spoons... oh well, I quess sand arena is easier to maintain :)

Nice work on it Paul. Now, IIRC you won't have any walls to the arena but will there be any columns and so on that might be placed for different matches?

And what is the hex-size of that board?

Marble floors???
The House of Spoons does not have that kind of dosh to splash about.

As for walls: I am tempted to do at least one side of the arena in future, with a spectators box etc. Columns are another possibility.

Bibbles has two designs as well.
This is the rectangular variety.
Take a look at this thread for the oval version:

They are both very nice and highly recommended.
 :D
