Final Week in Zomtober and probably my favourite mini of the month. This punk is from Hasslefree and goes under the rather unassuming name of
Joe. The scuplting is so tipically smooth that I was encouraged to a bit more detailing than I normally do. I had a bash at a Union Flag on his t-shirt and an anarchy symbol on this back. The t-shirt doesn't bear up to too close scrutiny, but from the tabletop distance looks like its meant to, so result. Also the way his left eye had come out (from my variable painting) made me think it looked a bit swollen, so I've tried to give him a black eye showing he's been in a rumble and come out the other side!
The second of this week's figures is Cleaver Vine from West Winds sidelined
Road Kill range. He is slightly on the heroic side of scaling, but the pose brings his height down. I always have trouble with faces and eyes and this figure was a bit awkward as his eyeballs have been sculpted almost popping out his head. But the cigar, haircut and dynamic pose are are winners.
All that remains is to thank and congratulate all the other participants in this years event. There have been some great and interesting models across the board. And also to finish with the customary group shot:
Nice work on the final entry of Zomtober. Another character from Hasslefree I want to add to the collection. I do love Joe and his mutant version.
ReplyDeleteNice work on the Roadkill survivor. Its reminded I want some of there police bikers
Those Roadkill figures are a bit tucked away but are characterful.
DeleteGreat stuff, I particularly like the second fig, he reminds me of wolverine.
ReplyDeleteCheers Roger.
Yes me too. He may yet get christened "Logan".
DeleteBoth absolutely stunning, but Joe is certainly my favourite.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michael, me too.
DeleteVery nice collection of Zomtober outputs. Kudos. :)
ReplyDeleteTnank you kindly, Sir.
DeleteRecommend you rename Joe to Glenn :)
ReplyDeleteBased on my buddy in this photo
My award - Glenn should be obvious
Ha, well he's naturally going to be a compadre to Tristan Flint so would make sense :)
DeleteNice work on Joe mate, he looks brutal :-)
ReplyDeleteCheers, GG. He does look like he knows what to do with that bat!
