Little Knight - new sculpt and paintjob

[JRN]

Hi,
Here is my latest sculpt - a Knight for www.runicminiatures.dk to defend the princess model I did last year:

I sculpted this guy in Winther and painted him as a break while I worked on my Crystal Brush project.
The design was made to offer a fun and quick painting experience - I painted the model in just about 3 hours including doing the base. To me this is pretty fast.

I hope you like him!

Cute and deadly!

A lot of character in this little dude! Great job in such a short time on the painting.

Cheers all.
I kinda like the "cute and deadly" and "cute but not too cute" -comments. Very close to what could have been in my design brief if I had written one.

@ Elly3438: Did you go to Adepticon?
The Little Knight was actually there in the cabinet along with my Duchess Death on the whacky ball.

Love his grindy sword i want to have a go at making a mini now.

Well done, JRN, your metallic technique makes this mini a lot more impressive than I would have thought, had I seen the unpainted version first. You are the master! If I had painted this guy it would have been too dark, I would have really messed it up!

I got to see him at Adepticon up close and he is great, lots of fun.

Unfortunately I didn't make it out this year - the finances and the timing just didn't line up right so I had to pass (was very disappointed). I do plan on coming around next year!

Almost forgot I felt an undeniable urge to buy this mini, saw it when you first posted this thread and thought "oh! I'll get my visa in a minute". Ordered the little knight and princess set a couple hours ago. Too bad that king isn't available, it would be perfect to oversee the diorama I have envisioned. A little scene in the yard/garden with the little'n's playing, I think I'll do the sword wooden.

It's really nice how the description gives real use-able scale info, "mm to the eyes/top of the head/etc", it shows real concern for the customer.
