Dernière sculpture du Kickstarter

 

Cette bien belle hydre vient terminer les sculptures du Kickstarter !! Hourra !!!
http://www.crocodilegames.com/forum/msgView.cfm?postID=6508&boardID=40&rowStart=673


Posted: Friday, Oct 13, 2017 at 9:05 AM — Edited on 2017-10-13 09:15:41.0 The second labor of Hercules is complete - the Hydra is defeated!
This was quite a departure for me, as I don't typically sculpt a lot of 'monsters'. It went smoothly at first, I sculpted the body (the grey parts) in Beesputty, a type of sculpting clay that is better for doing large, smooth objects, but then started to have a lot of trouble with the finished parts cracking, especially along the necks. So the last week was spent fixing my mistakes, and making a suitable base for it to sit on.
The base will have some additional details (like some more rocks, maybe a few bones from past victims), but I thought you guys would be eager to see it rather than waiting for the last fiddly bits.
With this one being finished, that is the last of all the funded Kickstarter minis. I may yet have a couple Amazon parts to correct for molding, but all the sculpts are now in the bag!
Huzzah!

[Kickstarter] Penthesilea à cheval

 


Un jour elle sera mienne !!

Posted: Monday, Sep 18, 2017 at 3:36 PM
The last amazon is complete!
Just put the finishing touches on the mounted version of Penthesilea. I based her pose on a painting by a Franz Stuck, a german painter from the 1800s:
Amazon and Centaur by Franz Stuck
Before anyone asks, no I'm not adding any tack to the horse - she rides a magical horse (a bit like Shadowfax, in LotR) that was a gift to her from the North Wind, and it does not need any!
The rider is likely going to come attached to the horse, her javelin hand and her cape are separate pieces. Here she is, hope you guys like her:

Les Harpies

 



Plus grand-chose à sculpter !!
Posted: Wednesday, Jul 05, 2017 at 3:44 AM
A flock of Harpies have descended upon Crocodile Games! Todd's second batch of Harpies arrived in the mail last week, and I finally found some time on the 4th of July to go out and cast the masters from his first set - now we can show them all off!
I think these look great, slightly taller than man-sized, just large enough to be believable that they could pick up a person in their claws. Hope you guys like these:

Paris, Prince de Troie

 


De plus en plus prêt du but

Posted: Thursday, Sep 07, 2017 at 8:33 AM
OK, with some assistance from Todd Harris, the Gates of Troy wave sculpting is complete!
As I have had my hands full working on the book, I had Todd do the last Trojan mini - Paris, prince of Troy. The figure was based on John Wigley's concept art, and Todd did a great job matching the Trojans I've already sculpted.
Paris, prince of Troy green
Here's a picture showing Hector next to Todd's Paris - brothers reunited after only 3200 years!

Hector and Paris, size comparison
His green is already at the master-mold makers, so hopefully we'll be able to put the Gates of Troy wave into production as soon as possible. I'm currently working on a mounted version of Penthesilea, and after that the last mini - the Hydra. Hope to have some decent pictures of Penny sometime next week.

Autel de Guerre Troyen

 




Posted: Wednesday, Jul 05, 2017 at 4:28 AM — Edited on 2017-07-05 04:47:17.0
I've also finished the last bit for the Troy War Altar. What I have made is a small shrine, that contains a tiny statue of Athena. It could also be used with any of the other war altars for a Demigoddess of Athena. (We only have a Spartan altar at the moment, but if sales are good we may make the other factions.)
The little statue of Athena inside is meant to be the Palladium. For those who are not familiar with the legends surrounding Troy, it basically goes like this - Zeus was fond of the Trojans, and so he commanded Athena to give them a sacred statue of herself (or sometimes it is said he threw it down from Olympus himself.) So long as the statue remained within the walls of Troy, the city would not fall. During the Trojan war, pesky Odysseus and is buddy Diomedes infiltrated the city and stole the statue, thus opening the way for the city's eventual defeat. Later legends say that it was then carried away by Aeneas as he escaped from the burning city, and he and the remaining Trojans carried it with them until they finally founded the city that would eventually become Rome. I've always loved the story, and so it was fun to sculpt it! It is a bit like an ancient-greek 'ark of the covenant' as shown in the Indiana Jones movies.
Here's a photo from an ancient vase, showing Diomedes stealing the Palladium - it is meant to be small!

And so without further ado, I give you... the Palladium! :D
Trojan War Altar
The shrine looks a little funny, as it is made with several different types of putty and plasticard - that's why it has all the different colors. The cast part should look better, all in one color.
It is likely that this element will have to be made in resin, as the Beesputty structure probably could not handle vulcanization.
Here's a closer view, so you can just see the little Athena inside the shrine:

Kickstarter - Immortal Figures: Gods of Olympus Tabletop Gaming Miniatures by Jacob Lewis

 


Un Kickstarter pour avoir quelques héros et demi-dieux pour pas trop cher.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/immortalfiguresllc/immortal-figures-gods-of-olympus?ref=category_newest







 

 

 











The Stretch Goals

Stretch goal figures begin to unlock if we are able to exceed our campaign goals. Once a stretch goal is unlocked, backer Levels II-IV can add them to their order by increasing it by $5 per figure (additional shipping is not required).
We have already prepared the initial designs for our first four stretch goal figures. However, we have basic concept designs ready for at least a dozen more that we will begin posting if it looks like we might reach them. Our current additional designs include Hestia, Hyperion, Nemesis, Prometheus, Hecate, Hebe, Morpheus and Atlas. We also have one for Arachne that I really hope we get to produce because, well, we love it ever so much.
We haven't determined an order on the stretch goal figures beyond the first four, so if this project is able to exceed those goals, your comments on what you would like to see next will shape what we offer.
