Dark elf lord sculpt

Post by TerminusEst »

Here's my latest sculpt, a DE lord which I've been struggling with to get finished for a while :), here he is, there's still some finishing touches needed, but he's as good as finished (I hope)

As usual my pics turn out non-perfect :P, but they will have to do for now.

hehe, focal length on the camera is very short by the looks. I like it a lot, I can see a heap of skill and time has gone into it. However IMO it lacks that elfish look and has more of a chaos look to it. (cult of slannesh would probably pass). I've got mates that complain about the lack of character minis in the DE army so I have alot of time for sculpts like that! Fantastic!

Thanks, also note that I'm currently lengthening his right leg as suggested on d.net...

Indeed looks more Chaotic than Dark Elvish, then again Chaos Elf?

Imho the legs are the weakest parts especially the right leg from what I can tell from these pics...

Just wanted to say what Demi_morgana said - it looks so nice at the current GS stage, that I want to see it painted. Really looking forward to it!

It looks good as an alternative to all these GW Dark Elves.

And keep it Dark Elvish, not Chaotic ;)

Still think you should make moulds and sell some of your sculpts... :roll:
