Squats or Space Dwarfs... In Space!

[Mason]

Oh, how I can empathise with that statement.

Muses....

My painting muse has certainly buggered off on holiday somewhere.
Whereas I am still putty pushing at the moment, and enjoying it I have to say, what I REALLY want to be doing is building some stuff.
I have a few more Old West buildings that I would love to sink my teeth into and hope that that particular muse is still around when I get the time to do so.....
Knowing my luck when the time comes it will have buggered off to look for the painting muse!

Yep... muses can be very cruel mistresses !

It's been a slow week but the lasgunners for the Tyranid Hunters are all at the same stage now:



This pic shows the press-moulded heads that I made so that I could have space inside the helmet to sculpt on each face. These are all in need of faces (obviously), the helmets being filled/cleaned up and then it is just a case of gluing on the arms and packs.

I am thinking that a couple of these will have some facial disfigurement/bionic implants and one may even have a full face-plate to hide his terrible injuries. I have also started a third detachment for my army but I am not in a position to share anything interesting just yet... but it will be fun .

Hmmm...



Just the start of something (currently 18mm tall).

Still very WIP but I am getting there :

@ Major_Gilbear ... you got it

Here's where it's at now:



I reckon the cat is out of the bag now

Just walk away.

On your stumpy little legs.

Is there any good reason that your sculpts (perhaps weaponless or with generic weapons) aren't being shopped to a potential producer?

The fact that I am in the process of a career change, life change and move to a different part of the country would probably be enough to start with.

I don't think the quality is up to a standard that I would be happy to sell (yet) in the shops either.

I also want to retain ownership of any designs but don't want to do the production side of things so I would need a very understanding business partner.

... I am also very wary of turning my hobby into a job... if I do that, how do I relax and take my mind off things?

Does that start to answer the question?

[Bergil]

Yeah keep it as a hobby. As for the dwarf vinidcare assassin dude. Very cool.

"I also want to retain ownership of any designs but don't want to do the production side of things so I would need a very understanding business partner."

Might be interested... Maybe. *shrugs*

Mate, that's great! I would add some more GS to the right shoulder though, there's something not quite right about it.
