Walvax Warrior

[Andy Moore]

This is my last finished build of 2017, and represents the only bit of proper figure modelling I've managed this year (there've been a couple of 1/35 figures as companion pieces to AFV builds, but I don't count them). I picked him up when Mierce had a 30% black friday sale, but wasn't intending to start him until next year. However, due to the excellence of the sculpt and the minimal amount of clean-up required, I couldn't resist getting him together and painted.

As the name almost implies, he's essentially an anthropomorphised walrus carrying a big harpoon. He's nominally 28mm scale, but he stands about 2½ inches high, not including his fetching neck spikes. He came with a sculpted coil of rope in his right hand, but I cut it off and replaced it with some waxed chord. The only other addition was to drill out the dimples on his cheeks and add some whiskers made from paint brush bristles.

The product of a possibly "left of field" but creative imagination finished to an incredibly high standard.

Cool, are these part of a series ? A group of various members looking somewhat similar stylise would look pretty cool on the shelf !

 

Awesome job Andy !

Mierce make a couple of others to form a unit , although they're essentially the same but with different poses.
