WIP Hasselfree Hellboy

[Bako]

That looks nice. Could you put another Hasslefree mini next to him for a height comparison though? Cause I might just buy 2 instead of one depending on where Harby sits height-wise.

I'm afraid that apart from Oberon & Titania (who wouldn't be good candidates anyway) all my other Hasslefree miniatures are based and primed black at the moment, so they wouldn't be good examples for size comparison (photos would just show Hellboy standing next to a featureless black shape).

[Bako]

Oh. Sorry to stir off course, but how're Oberon and Titania? I was eying those Shakespearean beings.

I quite like them, but then again I'm rather pre-programmed to like them, as directing a production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" was my master's thesis in graduate school. My one quibble about them is that they don't have any thematic relationship to each other (other than the fact that they're both nude ). Titania is bathing and Oberon is just kind of standing there belligerently. It would have been nice if the two figures togther had been designed to make a scene between the two.

[Bako]

Indeed, that would have been cool. Don't worry, I too like them for a similar reason. Though, it didn't involve a masters degree of any sort. It was my favorite play in high school.

Last update before I slap some paint on this devil, I promise...







In addition to lengthening the sideburns and adding a goatee, I touched up his samurai hairstyle a little bit too. Now, if I can just get a bright sunny day here in the frozen North (well, Southeastern Michigan, actually...) I can get him primed and ready for some paint.

Finally painted! (after only two and a half years...).

Ow thats awesome, does the hellboy parts comin with the mini, i know i bought harby but cant remember those parts

[Heldrak]

The Harby figure comes with an alternate "Right Hand of Doom" and a (hornless) Hellboy-esque head. One must add one's own horns, tail, etc. (as seen in the thread).

You may be a slow painter, but you are a very fine painter. Great job! I really like it.

[The_Beast]

Excellent job, indeed. Well worth the wait!

However, am I a narrow minded jade for suggesting the original pose, for Hellboy, just didn't have enough 'slouch'? 

Teasing, of course. Here, Hellboy is in one of his moods. Definitely has that look of you just don't want to be in his way.

Really, you should feel proud. I. Never. Finish. Anything.

Count them. Four periods.

That could be a LAF Threadomancy record!

You're forgiven though, as A) it's your thread and B) it was indeed well worth the wait 

Looking at your pic, it's easy to forget that Hasslefree's are such small figures.

Fantastic!

[Lt. Hazel]

Yeah that´s a great coversion, and excelently painted! May be I´ll copy yours one day.
