The sculpt is good, I think there are some proportion issues. The neck looks a bit too long either that or the shoulder muscles look too small in proportion to his huge chest.

Bloody good sculpting though!

(I\'m not sure what Tim is wittering about, he could have lost the plot...)

yeah the neck is a bit long, deliberately, with the idea of trimming it at the appropriate time

Bloody good sculpting though!
thanks :D

I think he get\'s a bit fixated poor boy, he\'s gonna have kittens now tho...
I\'ve changed me mind lol

I\'m gonna try and get the Duke finished off

the only thing is I don\'t have a base sorted for him

and I\'m gonna enter the Skaven bust as well

Don\'t worry Tim, I\'ll still bring the Orion sculpt for you to look at

lol I know, I had to get that off Photobucket, since I wiped everything off the hard drive

I\'m having a clear out today and moving the bases mess so I have somewhere to paint again, I promise new pics by the end of the weekend

I\'ve actually done some more on this, I\'m hoping to get some pics of him tonight

Shirt\'s done, may need a further highlight but I\'ll let you guys have a look and see what you reckon

Started on the hat, however, the reference shots I\'ve got have some conflicting colors, but I\'m opting for grey as it\'s the most prolific

I want to set him outside the Sheriffs office, in Rio Bravo, but the only pic I\'ve found showing the sign \"Sheriffs Office something county\" has the \"something \" obscured by a huge post, I think it begins with a \"P\" but that\'s about it
I only have the VHS of it and the VHS player died sometime ago so I can\'t even watch the film either. So if there are any Rio Bravo buffs out there and you know which county it is I\'d be grateful :D

Well, there\'s this, but I have no idea whether it\'s supposed to be the same place in the film. :~(

Edit: AH! Actually, it might be this! Skip down to \"In popular culture\" :yes:

lol You\'re welcome! Of course, it was motivated entirely by selfishness on my part - if you finish cowboy dude off quickly, you can get on with that Orion sculpt! ;):D:cool:lol

ok took about 15 pics, forgot to change the light settings in the camera until the last one :rolleyes:
I couldn\'t figure out why things were looking blueish

so here\'s a little teaser, pretty sure the shirt needs further highlights in places, still working on the hat, might do some more later depends what time I get back from GW
