As many of you know, last year Games Workshop destroyed one of the greatest fantasy settings ever born, and the wargame that took place in there. With this creation of mine i want to say goodbye to Warhammer Fantasy Battles game and its world. So many bloody battles, so many shining victories, and so many hopes unfulfilled and the stories untold. Fare thee well and rest in peace, old friend, you will live in the hearts of those of us, who remember your glory.
I always wanted to do a line of a `big` Warhammer FB female characters, so this high elf girl is a kind of a test, and also first in the line. This is conversion of Origen Arts Boudicca 1/10 bust. As always, NO airbrushing, exept grounding.

Life is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless and perfunctory gift nobody ever asked for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So you're stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down because there's nothing left to drink. Sure once in a while there's a peanut butter cup or a English toffee, but they're gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits of hardened jelly and teeth shattering nuts. If you're desperate enough to eat those all you've got left is a. An empty box, filled with useless brown paper wrappers. |

Stunning painting, I thought it was a photo at first glance. The only things I would say are that the ear looks massive, and is sticking out at a bit of an odd angle. Also, at the corners of the mouth [might just be the photos] there's some dark patches which makes it look like she's been binge eating marmite on toast. If I could only have 5% of your skill though...

FYI - I found some pics of the original model & you can see how small she actually is:

Can't seem to link a pic directly :(

Thanks for your comments and critiques.
I`m a fan of a meaty anime-like elf ears, so i sculpted them so. BTW, otherwise they will not be visible in the hair.
The second bust in the line is a Nagarroth elf girl, i think her ears are more ` dnd-elf` like.

I'm not familiar with the original bust but she does seem to have a very Russian look to her with those elevated cheekbones. Not sure if that was planned or not but it's a pretty cool little personal touch. I honestly have trouble telling if I;m looking at 3D painting or a swimsuit model photo.
Seriously awesome work on so many level
