OK that's extremely cool. Let's hear some details:
1) looks like her right hand is grabbing the mane of the horse. That is an excellent solution.
2) What all have you done with the steed?
3) witch elf keeps her stock legs, but you have repositioned them appropriately, true?

What else is going on there?

Again, it's awesome. You can't put up something that cool without education to accompany it. :D
That's silly! Playin with little statues, pretendin' they're fightin'! Why not just round up a bunch of real goblins and lettem' whack it out?

Ok, thanks for the feedback guys!, Really appreciate the praise!

- Steed is the Scroungerunnner steed, just some bending to make the pose rank up

- Sorceress is a WE from the belly button up, with the Dragon Rider Sorceress legs, cut and repositioned to make her look faster.

- Staff top, scrolls and daggers also from the Dragon kit, there is a tabard added to the front and its source alludes me.


Lion, you are of course correct she is holding the Maine, that and her knees are the only green stuff!

Phew, recap over! :D

Very nice! Would love to do something like this, but my green stuff skills are nil.

They're the most metal race out there, rivaled only by Warriors of Chaos. They bring a cauldron of boiling blood onto the battlefield. You don't get much more metal than that." -- Mostlyharmless on Warseer

Very inventive! And with minimal greenstuff, I love it. Better check your hobby room--consider this stolen :)

Since there has been such great interest in this project I thought I'd share the (slow) progress I have made with her.

Hair & Skin so far, if there is interest I will keep you updated!
