You are an incredibly talented sculptor! I love the open mouths on the top of the axes of the chaos guy. How do you get the details so precise and the wide areas so smooth? Any specific tools? Or just a lot of practice?

I do think he is massively incorrectly proportioned, but if you are going for more of a comic book character then fine. His head seems way too big and he seems very short!

EDIT -- im talking about the chaos guy lol. The goblin ones are superb as well though!

the chaos guy is 35mm tall he looks short cos he,s leaning forward n cape adds so much width.i actualy made the legs about 3mm longer than they would normaly be on a sculpt of this size.getting fine detail and smoothness is mostley about taking ur time and practise and learn as u go just like i still am.thanks for compliments and crits
cheers guys

That\'s good! It\'s easy to get faces wrong.

You\'re getting good at this sculpting lark!

DAMNIT! What went wrong? Does this mean those three won\'t be available, or just available later? Gah... I was/am very much looking forward to smearing some paint on those bad boys. Whatever the problem is... fix it! Now!

New face looks good, but damn man! Very sad news. Please PM me the instant they\'re available, I really do want them.

PS - I\'d like to buy the first three sculpts you posted.

Oh yeah, constructive stuff....

If you are just about making stuff that you want to paint, then obviously it\'s up to you.

However, if I was in charge of your direction I would seriously go for pieces aimed at Warhammer and the current gaps in their production. They\'re getting filled, and the plastic general kit\'s go a long way for customizability but if they\'re good looking metal sculpts of the quality you\'re producing then I would think your job of marketing them woul dbe that much easier. Might get clobbered for suggesting that but love \'em or hate \'em (I love \'em) GW still draws a LOT of water in the mini market. Avatars of War make bloody fun figs to paint but I don\'t think it\'s a secret that while they have their own game most of the stuff could get shuffled into a game of Warhammer pretty easily.

My Wish list for you to make. Start immediately after reading this!

-Demonic Heralds for the chaos demons. These need to fit on reg 25mm bases. Right now the ready to buy GW stuff is limited to bigger models or special characters everyone uses.

-Cool O&G stuff. Much like you\'re doing... only many more models! I\'d like two handed weapon versions of everything.

-Dwarf Characters. Every single player uses the same well done model by Felix Pangua. Nothing wrong with that, but your style looks like it could do a couple mean ass sculpts to stand in for mid lvl characters or unit champions.

But TBH I haven\'t seen anything you\'ve shown so far that I wouldn\'t buy. At least once.

PS-Cast up your \"foo-foo\" Space Ork please. Did I ever mention that I wanted one?

Love your stuff. Whatever personal life you have please consider pushing aside and start working 24hrs a day on this stuff. At least consider it.

as far as know there will still be relased just delayed for now.iv only seen 1 pic of a cast (the dwarf)its had some paint on it n its very dark but it looks like its missing alot of detail.and the gobo cheifs arm is a very bad fit from wot im told.so soon as i get the greens back il do all i can to solve these probs.@chris hope ur right mate @scott i painted the ork green so not much chance of that but i would jump at the chance to do another1 to be cast id do a companion for him 2 ever seen a freebooter tranny? lol.ive decided to do the face as a farseer bust i think it will be more challanging then a high elf.thanks for all the comments n hopefully it will be sorted soon
