Jubilee Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 With regards to Klocke and unrealistic poses: Maybe all those miniatures are actually members of Cirque du Soleil. If you've seen it, you know what I'm talking about. Real people shouldn't be able to do those things, but those people can.. 'course, they start when they're like.. 4.. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_Adcock Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Very cool.... I wonder if he will bne doing any Male ( MASCULINE male ) elves anytime soon? Don't be silly. WK elves are all parthenogenic females. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIGIL Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 ^^ LOL. Too true. WHat the hell is it with artists and androgenous elves? WOuld it really be such a stretch to imagine a make elf that actually looks dangerous? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mourningcloud Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 While I like Klocke's work, the level of cheesecake and the horrid poses are too Playboy or Penthouse for me. I happen to be a fan of both of these fine publications, and i still find this sculpt too over the top for me. the pose disturbs my suspension-of-disbelief gyroscope, sending it careening off balance. also is it just me, or does anybody notice a subtle difference in the face sculpts of werners freebooter stuff as opposed to reaper? the freebooter girls all have somewhat hooded and /or squinty eyes, and the features seem less than the serene beauty of the reaper sculpts (though granted most of those are elves; not called the fair folk for nothing, as well as working off of concept art). as a trade off, the bodies are all noticeably more comely on the freebooter minis, although as I stated this presents little problem for me anyway, so what gives with the freebooter faces-they all get tied to the tracks so the ugly train could just keep running over them or what?

Stern Kestrelmann Posted January 5, 2005 Author Share Posted January 5, 2005 MC- Have you ever seen a FB model in person? Held one in your hands? They are really, really well done. Pricey yes, but worth every penny IMO. The level of detail is unmatched and most models are multi-piece so the options are endless when assembling.

Mourningcloud Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 oh yeah! i own the summoning sorceress, floating wizard dude, and the goblin shaman. im not saying the sculpts are bad, or the casting is lousy. im talking about the look of the models themselves. the face on the chaos sorceress (the one that looks like a ben gay patch commercial)-it just strikes me that the faces on some of the freebooter models are slightly less comely than the reaper minis he sculpts. maybe im just imagining it. but i know that the faces all look exactly as the wants them to, and he just seems to give his freebooter females distinct facial characteristics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
