    Just about finished this fine release from Nuts Planet. I still have a few nooks and crannies to darken before I can call it finished. This is the first time since I was a kid that I've done a fantasy figure, but this release just caught my eye and I had to have it. It was a welcome change of pace and a lot of fun to do, so please feel free to make suggestions as you see fit.

    Thanks Brian, Johan and Ben. Somtimes its good for us to step out of our comfort zone a little bit in order to try something new. I don't think I could do a lot of fantasy stuff, (although more and more fantasy figures are being released in 75mm, my favorite scale) but the variety of textures on this figure presented a real challenge and forced me to stretch my painting skills, so well worth it.

    Thanks Pedro. I used a purple/violet oil paint in my flesh tone mix for the first time ever. Usually, I'm just doing a face on a military figure, so the whole upper body presented a new challenge.

    Thanks Zeno, I am planning on bringing this figure to Chicago, as I have never entered a figure in the fantasy category. Again, something new to experience!

    Really nice work man. Great palette. Tons and tons of attitude and character.
    Don't be afraid to dip your toes in the fantasy/sci fi pool more often.

    Well done

    Thanks Colin, that won't be a difficult decision if they keep putting out figures like this! I have one other on the workbench, in a sort of holding pattern. That's Nocturna's winged Griffin with the wee knight riding on the griffins back. It's a 54mm and I've had him for about a year now. Just need to finish it off and get asuitable base.
