This one has been a fair while in the works. I originally started work on it in 2013 or so, I think:

As with many other projects it hit a roadblock that took a long time to get past. In this case the problem was that it has a rider.
The body and the arms weren't too difficult but the head presented no end of problems. I couldn't create anything I was satisfied with.

Time passed and many years later I found I now had the skill to sculpt Orc heads. Sure, they could be better, but it'll do to be going on with!

In the intervening years I setup my own casting operation and got to pouring silicone goo over my flimsy green master. The result was fairly pleasing:


Of course, being that it's me and it was 11 bleedin' degrees inside my flat:

It took a while to get it painted.
Still, I got there in the end:



It's not just a solid block either. Eight parts are in the kit so if you want different heads, torsos, weapons, or whatever then it should be fairly easy to swap them out. It's not a snap-fit kit though so the usual green stuff, super glue, and patience will probably be required if you want to make changes.

Anyway, it's here if you'd like it:
