Great work with the skin. Did you make the base?

It's a stone drinks coaster, same as the one i used for my Armoured skullmasher conversion.

I built it up using stone plaster stuff and then grass, different coloured sands and dryed parsley.

Holy cow, he came out great!  I think he needs a happless victim, so show just how big he is.  He's about NL2-sized, if I'm not mistaken...

Is he on Cheddarmongers yet??  :cm

Really good work, the tree trunk is spot on! I'm not keen on the hairy patches but that's the sculpt not you.

He's about an inch or slightly more bigger than in the picture.

Have to sort out and get my stuff posted on Cheddars.  :icon_razz:

I worked on his nails and once you can see his face proper his teeth too.


Smile please.  :icon_razz:

I reckon a tartan loin cloth would have worked for him! Pity its fur. Great job mate!

It is tan-fashing-mastic. Your skin is so lovely, supple and soft. :icon_razz:

Is that a scar on his arm you failed to paint though?

Could you narrow it down a bit, which arm and where on the arm.

Only one scar and it's painted.  :icon_scratch:

The flesh is a work of art in itself!  :icon_w00t:

Now that that's out of the way, we can keep complimenting Wristy on his cool paintjob here!

I can't get over how much he looks like Fat buzzard* from Austin Powers.  You really should have ground down or filled in that fur texture and painted it tartan!

Quote from the guy who sculpted it.

QuoteGreat Job!  I think its my favorite paintjob on this sculpt.

and, yes, I was having a little fun with the "muscles-on-top-of-muscles" comic book style.  that much broad area of skin is rather intimidating on a miniature this large :icon_smile:

Very nice work indeed, kinda reminds me of Mr Hyde from Van Helsing.
Good choice on the colours, shame he didn't have a kilt tho'.
Great job!!
