You may have already seen him here, but I'm going to show you to him on my blog again.
I went with an homages to Howard Chaykin's Plexus Rangers from his American Flagg comic.
I may break with my normal rule of done is done and try to touch up the gold jewelry in his face, it looks like I may have gotten matte varnish on it. I used absolutely no grunge wash, perhaps a first for me in a long time. I think it paid off.
In my world, Borborygmus Prime, he is part of the Anarcho Squad. Meteing out the Emperor's justice no matter what the collateral damage.
His name is:
I briefly considered making his face orange with a white raccoon eye look, but as you can see his face is already pretty busy with the piercings and goggles. So I left it. Why does he wear a bird skull around his neck? The last guy who asked got a 12 gauge blast to the face!
For those of you that think Donald Trump is a good idea for a Presidential candidate, sorry; not sorry. Only in the current political bizarro world we find ourselves in could someone say the things he says and actually go up in the polls. While I don't disagree that politics as usual is a real problem in our country currently, what he is doing is the worst and ugliest type of demagoguery, preying on peoples real fears and frustrations.
I don't like to bring real life to the blog, especially politics or religion, but that's how I feel about him.
Wow! :D heavy metal...! very nicely done! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks RMacedo. \m/
DeleteI lot of us in England are watching Trumps diatribes and wondering when all you guys are going to jump out and scream "April Fools"!
ReplyDeleteHi Riot Ville, from my perspective it is surreal.
DeleteThe fig looks great man...no worries about the political thing Trump is what we Brits call a "class A Cockwomble" I hope for that you guys kick his butt to the curb....
Delete*i hope for your sake you guys* apologies for the poor sentencing....
DeleteIt's okay dGG, American isn't your native language. ;) And yeah, I think he is the poster child for the "Ugly American".
DeleteNor yours Sean, I think it's Navajo.....lol
DeleteWe have our share of stupid though dude, those politicians who make you ashamed - Nigel Farage tried to become the MP (member of paliament) for the area I live in and I was so thankful when our voters saw through his bile and nonsense
Come to think of it Nigel is a bit orange like Trump maybe it's something in the fake tan?
DeleteA great looking figure Sean.
ReplyDeleteWow, he's turned out nice (the model, that is - not Trump!). He'd fit right in with my post-apocalyptic savages, but I don't recognise the maker?
ReplyDeleteThank you Hugh, it was a special commission sculpted by Mark Copplestone. My guess is he was cast by Wargames Foundry, but I don't know the full story. There may be a few still floating around in England.
DeleteFuck'n A!!!! Love him Sean, absolutely top notch work!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Airborne, I'm really glad you like him. I didn't realize how much he looked like Bulldog's until I was looking for the Psycho Sam album.
