Hello!
Back when I made this guy I sculpted his beard, it was the first sculpted on beard I've done. I also made his buckler like shield out of some sticks, faux leather and lego parts. The purple leather is the hide of a "bount dog" (paper towels) and I must say it's still one of my favorite things I've made. Well I don't have much to share now other than this unfinished guy. Hopefully I'll show some more of those dystopic guys with my new backdrop. For now I hope you all have a nice week and stay safe out there.
I haven't posted in some time, matter of fact I don't remember the last time I did but I've been active working on some of my dystopic figures and building a new backdrop. As a matter of fact I recently finished one of my new ones but I'm hoping to photograph him with the new backdrop. For now I wanted to share something I had made some time ago, back a year or two I got bitten by the fantasy figure bug and I made a total of three, one rifleman and then there was this one and later on knock off gargamel. Well I never finished any of those two with the exception of this, my fantasy viking hoplite sea raider fantasy man.
Even though I never finished this guy I remember having a good time putting him together, specially weathering his metal parts and putting his armor together. Speaking about armors I based his on the linothorax mostly because I found it easy to make back then. Well I personally do not plan on finishing him sadly, I'm not that good when it comes to putting together fantasy figures and I'm more centered around my dystopic/sci-fi type of guys so I'll be cannibalizing it for useful parts and storing the more fantasy bits away until a day where I figure out a way to do a fantasy figure proper.
