Grrrrooiiiinnkk !!

Hog-time it is!

One more of the beastly tribe and kin to the Satyr Ancient I presented in my last post.
What name to give him? Minoboar? Hogman? Werepig?

I don't know yet but that should not keep me from sharing some pictures with you.


Hoggie is mean, clever and lucky.

At least that is what he thinks from himself.

Bashing one of his more recent knightly victims showed him, that a wooden club won't last forever if the opponent is clad in iron. Cunning made him slam the club into the knight's helmet, thus getting a wonderfully durable bludgeon and finally he added his last lucky find - a dragon tooth.

So far nothing could withstand this most terrible of weapons - but then again till now he just used it to open a rather defenceless barrel of beer...



(GW Miniature on the right just shown for size comparison)



Hope you like him.

Not sure what I'll come up next with for this faction, but I think it's time for something less traditional.
First I have to work off a bucketful of commissions though, so no comments on time schedule... :-)

Cheers,

Gregor

Satyr Ancient

Hiho again

I thought it's about time to post something here again and lucky me, I just have finished another sculpt for my own line.

He is a bit of a starter for a new faction I will do more stuff for, so watch out for more.
I am not quite sure under which name I will be selling these, so for the time being I will call them beastmen.

This will only be one of a few who will look like the more traditional Satyr-like beastmen. Most others of those yet to come will  sport different "animal-parts".
This theme is one where for imagination only the sky is the limit and I plan to make good use of this "sculpting freedom".
So maybe there will be hippo-men, hog-men, rat-men, tiger-men, tapir-men, or whatever hits my mind.
I am rather curious myself as I had no concept art for this one, it developed while sculpting away...  :-)

If someone thinks he/she has got a most splendid idea that needs to be realised, let me know, I just might get tempted. :-)











Bye,

Gregor

Another MaxMini Release

Hiho again

As much as I would prefer to show more recent stuff, especially what I am currently sculpting for a not so small german company which is normally more linked to classical pen&paper roleplaying games, I can only show things which are not under NDA rule (Non-Disclosure-Agreement).

So here one of my earlier works for MaxMini, now finally released:








Cheers,

At long last time for another dwarf!

First signs of withdrawal syndrome showed for not sculpting a dwarf for such a long time, so I had no choice: I had to sculpt another one of the stout folk for my salvation and peace of mind.

Inspiration came when I read of this years' sculpting competition in the Mini Sculpture Forum.

This will be my contribution:



Now I am feeling much better and can sculpt other stuff with hands that aren't shaking anymore... ;-)


Hasta luego,

Gregor

Gladiator Heads released

Another commission has seen its' release at long last.

In fact it was one of my very first commissions since I have started freelancing last year:
Gladiator heads for the polish company MaxMini .




Here another picture, with a nice paint job:



Next on my workbench there is another miniature for my own miniature series waiting to be done.

I hope I can present first pictures soon.


Cheers,

Gregor

Guess what: New Terminators!

This fella must be Terminator-addicted or something.

Recently I finished another Terminator conversion job for him.
Makes me wonder when the next bunch of those will come along...^^







Apart from that I did more stuff for Tabletop-Art and Freebooter. I hope they release some of that soon, so that I can present some pictures here.

Cheerio,

Gregor

First releases of commissions

What I do dislike a bit about my job is the fact, that under normal circumstance I am not allowed to show here the stuff that I finished for other companies. In short: commissions.

Of course I do understand the necessity not to interfere with release schedules. Still, having completed a job I would love to share some pictures here.

But, alas, I can't...

At least not untill the commissioning company has released the miniatures in question.
Unbelievable how long it takes some of them to release their stuff.
Of all the things I sculpted so far two things have been released so far:

A hussar wing I did for MaxMini:

And a conversion of the cultist heads from Tabletop-Art to be more Sci-fi like:

I am still waiting for more stuff from MaxMini, Freebooter Miniatures and Tabletop-Art to be released.
I hope they hurry up a bit, so I can show more pictures of releases here soon.

Especially Tabletop-Art have a lot of sculpts from me in the pipe, so all I can say to them is:

GO! GO! GO!

Cheers,

Gregor
