| He has necks now! Cool! Much more natural looking. The mace seems different, too. Did you replace the haft with a metal bar?
Nice work, as always. | |

| I adore the changes to the sculpt [^]
I'm not thrilled with the color scheme (very dark with almost no contrast).
It looks like in addition to trimming the mace haft you turned the ball around as well. That's a nice touch. The heads actually look like they can move now. That's also a very nice touch. Did the sculpt changes require a lot of green stuff or just a lot of knife work? | |

Yup! Now it's not a whip! ;)

The vertical striping on his chest is not an artifact of the photo; his whole body is made up of lines to mimic the dirty fur. So there's a bit more than what comes out on first glance.

Mostly green stuff; I cut the heads off, stuck them on a bit of a paper clip (which is also used in the mace with a bit of wire near the head), and resculpted the two necks with green stuff. | |

| The sculpt is much improved. Too bad the lighting isn't very good on the picture, as I can't really see much of the paint job.
Edit: Is there anyway a picture with better lighting can be taken and shown here? | |

| Pete, I like what you did with the ettin scuplt wise. It almost makes me wish I had kept one of my two.
The color seems a little off, but I think it's the background. It looks like there is a lot of detail here (on the chest and faces) that is just washed out in the photo. Any chance of getting us another picture to truly admire your work? | | | |
