<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Forge World application sculpts?"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/7.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Forge World application sculpts? FW (on a freelance basis), what sorts of things would you make for your application?

How big? How many?

Bearing in mind they will be doing warhammer soon, would you think it would be wise to do some of that and 40k? Or only what interested you?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1451938.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1451938.page GMT Forge World application sculpts? FW did freelance. But, following the hypothetical, I'd sculpt basic troops to show I have the skill to produce figures in line with what GW makes. I'd probably also produce a few large creatures or seige weapons to demonstrate that I can model as well as sculpt.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452242.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452242.page GMT Re:Forge World application sculpts? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452303.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452303.page GMT Forge World application sculpts?
OTOH, having a portfolio does make sense. maybe focus on non-GW sculpts of some sort? If they're good, I'm sure a small minis company that does more 'generics' would consider them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452331.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452331.page GMT Forge World application sculpts? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452356.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452356.page GMT Forge World application sculpts?

And what does that have to do with anything about application sculpts or Forge World?

That's a quality control issue for Games Workshop, at best--and badly interpreted design sketches made into model form at worst.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452772.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1452772.page GMT Re:Forge World application sculpts? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453028.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453028.page GMT Forge World application sculpts? The Minotaurs are a...rather poor result of that idea. They were intended to be men altered through some random acts of mutation through the Winds of Chaos, rather than being their own separate species like Trolls, Orcs, and Giants.

I don't think they do anymore, but that's actually how Chris Fitzpatrick got a job with the Studio.

Yep, and when he left the company they still had a bunch of his sculpts to release that they had to hammer out arrangements on since he'd done preliminary work before he joined.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453119.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453119.page GMT Forge World application sculpts?

No, and certainly not as funny as Games Workshop approving of the Razorgor, though few things are. AmIrite?



But anyway, call them, it's the best, safest bet. And if they say no, nuke 'em from orbit.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453321.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453321.page GMT Forge World application sculpts?

The Razorgor certainly has my head befuddled.

But it has a sort of wacky charm to it. Like a train hitting a cow on the track, and the cow surviving with a ridiculous look to its face.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453348.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453348.page GMT Forge World application sculpts? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453547.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/286977/1453547.page GMT
