The Bridge Guard have arrived!

Some of you may remember this post from April about my first sculpted figure... The Bridge Guard?

Well, today a package arrived from my friend Chris Borer (famed Slayer Sword winner and the guy behind Full Borer Miniatures). After he did such a great job on my casting last year, I managed to cajole Chris into casting up my dude for this year's Armies On Parade project : )

*squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*

Once again Chris managed to replicate all the flaws in my sculpting perfectly ; ) The brownstuff seen on the figure below is primarily to correct problems with my sculpting for the hands, a pretty crappy job really, but it's all about learning, right?

Anyway, I now have 20 of these to assemble and get primed.

Time is ticking!

Cheers

Heroes of Armageddon - Scratch sculpted character!

When we first embarked on this crazy adventure (The Heroes of Armageddon Charity Project), I cast about, asking a bunch of celebrated miniature painters I know to join in the "fun".

Chris Borer - winner of FOUR Golden Demon Slayer Swords and all round excellent guy - offered to provide the Master of Ordnance for the Steel Legion Command Squad. Then he floored me by offering to sculpt it from scratch. Above you can see the wonderful miniature he has created (from greystuff or procreate, I'm not sure which). As Chris himself said when he sent through this pic, this model could probably do double duty as either the Master of Ordnance, or an Officer of the Fleet.

Chris is currently painting this model up to be his entry for Golden Demon. Wouldn't it be great if he could pick up his FIFTH Slayer Sword with this model. What and awesome part of the Steel Legion prize : )

Donate now! Donate often!
