A new sculpt from Darkhammer miniatures


The green of the latest sculpt from Darkhammer miniatures has been revealed.  This beastie will be very fun to paint!  Here is the concept art.


The artist did a wonderful job of capturing that concept art, and I am sure the casting quality will be as high as it was for the undead Samurai.



I see lots of fun color combos here!


Can't wait to see the actual figure!


I think I will be using some weathering powders on this guy. :-)


Here are some WIP shots of the Undead Samurai.  I have been doing glazes on it since these were shot...


I have been making a nice Japanese garden base for him, and finding lots of designs for the banner, etc.  Stay tuned!

The Undead Samurai from Darkhammer.


Here is something new... a large scale resin figure from Darkhammer.  The base is about 80mm, which should give you a good idea of size.  It is a very high quality casting, with absolutely no air bubbles or silly defects!  Yea!

It comes in some nice packaging:


This really keeps the pieces intact...


This shows the pieces in the plastic wrap that keeps them organized.


The parts after some cleaning:


And the assembled warrior.  The pieces fit together very very well.  I will not have to do very much to cover those edges!  It was easy to figure out what went where, as there are a number of pins and holes for each piece.


I did replace a few of the staffs with metal rods.  They matched the size of the original nicely.  The rods on the figure were just thick enough to get the drill bit through the critical areas!


I will take more images as I work on this.  The base is next!
