Hey guys, just yesterday I saw this figure on Ebob's facebook page and thought to myself 'I want that model!' I decided to look it up on ebay and went for the MiniArt version. It arrived in a day (which I thought was brill) and I'm very happy with it. It's a 120mm model kit on a 1:16 scale with 40 parts. I've glued the most of it together, but not all so I can access it easier and then further used green stuff to fill in all the joints. I just started painting it tonight but please bare in mind I'm not much of a painter. Tell me what you think anywhoo!

Update

The top of his collar looks a little weird because it hasn't dried while the rest of the cloth has been done.

This is something different, looks good so far, have you got another minie to compare the size difference?

The paint pots in the background of the last pictures might help you with size comparisons.

Got some more done on it today since the weather was terrible up here. Someone asked for scale so I poped a WoMT in to give you an idea. Soon finished it, very happy with it so far tho. Sorry for the bad photo's, the camera is uber sensitive.

That's a really interesting miniature.

But the eyes are a bit strange like you said.
And try getting a bit more of a wood grain on the hilts and maybe make his equipment a bit more worn.
(keep it in a good condition, just a bit of damage here and there is enough.)

Was is difficult, a larger scale than what you are used to?
I've only tried smaller scales and that I always found a bit tricky.

Looking forward to seeing what you'll do further.

Just realized I never showed you the finish model of this, so I'll pop it up quick to finish the thread. Sorry the pictures really don't do it justice - but what can you do? :L
