(KICKSTARTER) Odin on Sleipnir - Project Pantheon

[Lovejoy]

Oathsworn Miniatures have a new project starting on Wednesday, for a sculpt of Odin on Sleipnir. Pics and details in a day or two, but here's a teaser pic of the mini:

This would be very nice for Ogam!

This is a kickstarter for one miniature? That's how the post reads at least.

That's what I'll be using mine for!

Yep, but he's a big model - takes up a whole mould, and will be about 250 grams of metal I reckon. And the KS is only going to be 10 days... it's just a trial run to see if there is any interest in taking the line further, really.

This certainly has potential.

But I am a bit torn.
I would like to have the whole pantheon of Norse gods. I actually have some ideas already...
However I am not sure what to do with "just" Odin.

How big is he?

Especially Sleipnir's 'mother'.

I'm hoping to sculpt them all -Odin's just the test piece really; if people like him, I'll do more.

How big is he?

He's a pretty big model - Odin himself if he was a foot model, he'd be 40mm tall. I made him bigger to fit in with the North Star and Bronze Ago gods, which are both the same sort of size.

Especially Sleipnir's 'mother'. 

Everybody loves Loki...  well, horses do! Although I guess those dwarves weren't too happy with him.

The project has just gone live, so here's the link, and a pic. More details on size, bigger pics etc on the KS page.

Pledged! 

It looks fabulous and will work well with my older Jotunheim fantasy norse project where different sizes don't matter.

Cheers WK!
And I love that blog - I hadn't seen it before - the skin colour works really well. Love the Bearstruck unit!

He looks great. I've pledged and hope it does very well indeed in the hope you sculpt the rest of the Norse gods.

Pledged, for use in OGaM as well

Very nice, especially Sleipnir, not easy to get an 8-legged horse right but he's a beauty.

Thanks everyone! The kind words (and pledges!) are much appreciated.

To be honest, it's already done a lot better than I was expecting! I wasn't sure anyone would be interested at all...
So I'll be starting on more Norse gods now. The obvious ones are Thor and Loki, but I'm really tempted by Hel, and maybe even Freyja on Hildisvíni - an angry sex goddess riding a giant boar has a strange appeal for me...
