After a few years of sculpting greens for other years i thougth that this is the time of making my own project.
The pics are not as good as it should be, and the mode is still in WIP (the blade will be more elaborated, the body will be a little bit more detailed etc) but i want to know other people opinions.
For this time, i will only put on sale a limited number of copies (only 150) but only the time will tell if this is the firts of more to come or the first and the last mini i will cast on my own.
Well, here are the pics

I would imagine he had to use wire to sculpt something so well. Also, if you look at the bottom of the raised right foot, you can see a bit of it exposed.
I love the use of counterpostitioning you used in this figure- it allows for a very dynamic piece even though in reality it's somewhat static. While you did an incredible job on the muscle groups, my only critique is that you could push that area further to get a better idea of how the muscles contract and stretch when acted upon. For example, I feel the arm that is raised with the dagger is good, but the muscle groups that lead down to the torso are not stretched as much as they could be- you could even exaggerate it a bit to really make a statement about the fact that she's at the zenith of her thrust, about to drive into her opponent.
All that being said, it's an amazing model, and I would buy one if you sold it (not that i would suggest it, since GW will be on you rather quickly- may want to call it something other than a witch elf.
Looks very nice. The only thing I could suggest is with the face. Your mini's face looks more round than the standard GW Elves. Maybe make the cheeks a bit more sunken and it will fit in with the GW range better. BTW, there is nothing wrong with the face your sculptured though.
Actualy, i´m finishing the details of the product but my goal is to start selling this mini in no more than 3 weeks.
The model is almost finish, and the price for it will be around 9.50 Eur (€). I will also ship this item overseas, so the world is the limit, for no more than 3€ up to 2 minis (even cheaper if i can but it is not my choice).
The way of paying it will be trougth paypal, an easy and secure way for both, the buyer and the seller.
P.D As Khelmor said the pose is like sacrificing a slave and if the sales goes well i will sculpt a limited edition (no more than 30 models) victim miniature for this elf.

About 13 US dollars, 13,50 Canadian dollars, 6,50 English pound and 1555 Japanese yen. :lol:[/quote]
Thank you, didn't have time to do a currency exchange rate check here at
work.
Juza.....are you planning on taking preorders or making a waiting list? I would like the Dark elf and the victim if you do make one.
I'll sign up for one or two as well... She looks really nice.

I love it very much, where do I have to sign for one of these?
If they were not sitting on our land, I would not spend a single bolt on the Asur.

Women run naked - Druchii
Don't know whether man or woman - Asur
