Is that your first sculpt or first 15mm sculpt?  Either way its very good.  I like the face, looks like me in the morning  :icon_w00t:

It's my first 15mm :) I'm working on some more though. So you wake up in the morning with wrappings on your face and goggles? :icon_scratch:

well cant be anyone over the age of 40, they're eyes shouldnt be good enough to do so much detail on a 15mm fig  :icon_w00t:

I resent that! I didn't do this one but others. I'm 41  :icon_wink:

"So you wake up in the morning with wrappings on your face and goggles? "  Just one of the things I have to do to stay beautiful  :icon_w00t:

In fact I see very badly. I'm nearsighted.
But up close I'm fine.
Sculpt better without lenses/glasses funnily enough.

OK.. comments and criticisms.. I want your opinions on this.

Its not from someone on the forum....

its a 15mm (to eyes) figure that has been done for  rebel miniatures I think...





from the sculptors please, comments

something just doesn't look right,  OK he is bandy legged, and I think the arms are a bit long...

generally.... very smooth and rounded sort of reminds me of Steve B's stuff, nice details ..

The arms and legs are a bit long in relation to the torso IMO, and the eyes are HUGE. The jacket also looks strange to me, especially the collar and shouldbe a bit sharper.

I thought they were hollow eye sockets   with gribbly bits.

yep clothes seem like soft wooly clothes without and sharp edges.

"But up close I'm fine."  See I told you he was looking out for ya  :icon_wink:

The forearms and hands look a bit funny on that fig but otherwise I think its fantastic Bungle. Remember its only 15mm and almost half the size of a normal fig, theres plenty of 28mm figs that arent half as good IMHO

I'd say it's great for a zombie. Arms a bit long but in that scale exaggerating such things for giving more of a "zombie-horror" feel to it is fine I think.
I've always found the dreamscene in "Terror on Elm street" where Freddy Krueger suddenly has extremely long arms and comes following the main character very slowly down a dark street one of the scariest parts.
For horrorfigures I think distorted proportions can be quite effective.
So I like it.

Is that what it was called in Sweden?

Nightmare on Elm Street in UK

I suppose its a bit like the shark film JAWS, it was called "the teeth from the sea" in france

Dr.Evil

His guts should be hanging out a bit more with that sort of damage.

Not a sculptor, but I'm going to comment, anyway :P

Looks OK to me.  There is a touch of the zombie-grey-alien about him and the arms and legs are a bit long, but I think he looks OK :D

There is a little something about him that reminds me of Bud the Spyglass Zombie, but I don't know if that is just because you mentioned Steve B.
:hal:

jaws way off. looks like an overbite a great white could envy.

cheeks need a bit fleshing out....

hips are to skinny....

actually the whole face needs a rework.

arms a re to long and hes not wearing a cowboy hat....


hope that helps, i dint like to criticise overly, but it seems thats just what you wanted... sooo..... :icon_wink:
I'll be in my bunk.

I just want honest opinions... its 15mm so frothers isn't a good place to ask  :icon_wink:
