Ha, yeh I remember I made that mistake once before. I will be proxying her with a him though.

What model do you have planned to use?

Either a Shaka Hog or Highlander, it depends which way I go with the background. Probably a Highlander, I'm also considering putting a Highlander on a Rhino or something to use as a Gecko Rider. That was all BF1e banter though so things might change when I rework for 2e.

You would make me buy a second Jacques model despite getting the Adepticon alternate, wouldn't you?

Nothing is forcing you to get the second Jaques . We had a second sculpt made for those that weren't lucky enough to get an AdeptiCon Jaques.

The fact that it's an awesome model is forcing me!

At least its a small model

It could be many awesome variants of Loxodon we're forcing you to buy

What about something like a Hyena Witch Doctor? Tajir is not really a combat character after all.

Rhinos won't be Zabaran mounts (Reytax would have issues with that), They'd either get Turtles on loan from Adwaita or use Ostriches.

A Hyena could be fun although I'm more likely to do a resculpt of a Highlander to fit the role. I'll bare it in mind though, could be a nice break to work on.

Yeh I figured there would be an Issue with Rhinos. I'm not sold on any option at the moment so I'll probably just try and avoid having to take one. Heck, depending on how 2e ends up I might not even take Tajir. The new Mercs limit makes her more than a little bland.

I've got the Jacques model for you and WhiteRoo, Darksteed! Unfortunately I was not able to get one for Snodherm.

Snodherm, if you check in and see this in time, there are 2 ending on ebay in the next several days:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brushfire-Adepticon-Jacques-of-Martinique-Paladin-Figure-and-Card-/111068102509?pt=Games_US&hash=item19dc2cbf6d

Sorry I wasn't able to get one more, hopefully you can snag one of those!

Tajir looks real nice, guys! I'm looking forward to picking her up, even though BF2e looks to be playing havoc with my cold blood's army list and play-style.

Cy or Misk, let me know when you're available to visit and I'll schedule a trip.

Slight update: Jacques of Martinique & Tajir Serai will be retailing for $9.99.

Something Big...

Looking promising.

Looks kinda to humanish compared to the other brushfire mini's.
O.o

I'll reserve judgement unit the finished mini thow.

*drool*

Woah...

It makes me want to start a Circle of Oboros army just so I could proxy Lox into it and shock the Warmachine players.

How big is he? Its hard to tell scale from the picture.

Gargantuan sized...

When he gets into the office I'll take some scale shots of him, but Alf has it right.

That model will create some great scenes on the tabletop. It will be an imposing sight watching him lead a horde of Warhogs across the battlefield and how great will it be to see a bunch of rats or hamsters charging in and trying to take him down.

I wouldn't mind seeing some deeper texturing on the chest and leg skin areas. That is a lot of open space.

I think some war paint on his chest/arms/face will help break that up alot, but that's not the sort of thing we'd want to have sculpted on..

Is it WiP? The head looks great, but the rest seems a bit plain, underwhelming.

Still very much a WIP

I can get behind that logic.

I wish the same process had been applied on the jaguar pelt of the Civitan Capybara Capitan, instead of sculpting the "dots" on it. I forgot to fill them before priming, and had to respect them for painting.

The Capt was our 3rd model.. I've had to paint many many more of them then you have... we won't be doing that sort of thing again if I can help it

Wu Xian also doesn't have sculpted Stripes, nor do the Hyenas have spots.


Also this...

I didn't know it was this old. The sculpt is holding really well, apart from that.

Yeah, Leandro did a fantastic job.. even if he didn't 'get' what the Axe-Pistol was supposed to be

Badger-At-Claw (Discontinued) and Mouse Conscript were the first two, followed by the Capy Capt and Mole Tactician all from Leandro. The Lancers, Weasels, and Juan were the first things Dan did for us shortly after Leandro's second batch.
