Got my faceplate and helm dremmelled out. Just need a body so I can start fitting it all together. Thanks for making this project happen.

Would you be interested in sculpting the parts for Connors leather and fur battle harness from the mccleods cs Frazier battle in the original highlander ? I always thought it criminal that medieval Connor dud not come with his harness cloak and shield.

The Sculpt Looks Great.

Thanks glad you like it,sorry for not posting pics of how I dremmelled mine, the storm the other night did a little damage to my house so got distracted. Send me some references of the pieces you need and I'll see what's involved

Here's a pretty good picture. So its not particularly complicated from a sculpt point of view compared to Tigris. just talking the round and square plates.

Haha guess they ripped off that chest piece and added a tiger for tigris its near identical
 
Re: Gladiator tigris shipping

Yeah - its was the chest piece of tigris that just reminded me. Dremmelled off the excess and spray painted again tonight. Progress progress progress.

How you going with painting the head ?

Still contemplating it, watching a few tuts, and deciding to go acrylics or oils, I'm not good a mixing acrylics
 
Re: Gladiator tigris shipping

I don't know of anyone that uses oils for headsculpts... acrylics are just so much easier to work with and have quick drying times.

I made a couple of those verlinden resin kits 17yr back used oils best paint apps to a human likeness I ever did, just blended great the colours came out natural and the 5 aclock shadow just perfect. My acrylic projects have all come out looking like grade 2 school projects :slap
 
Re: Gladiator tigris shipping

BTW I was looking for more screen shots and I found he is actually wearing boots rather than sandals. I'll see if I can find some better shots

Yeah I've got plans for real leather boots, I just included the sandals so people could put him together to a semi complete state, I've tried plastic boots but they just look wrong,


Sven is in most of arnies movies, sometimes just 2secs sometimes a bigger role usually as a thugee

That is Frick'in Crazy . lol.
I didn't realize it was all the Same Dude Either, and them R Some of my Favortie Flicks.

I think Schwarzenegger Also Killed him in the Final Mob Scene in Raw Deal Too ...
 
Re: Gladiator tigris shipping

Yeah check him out on IMDB. Those are the main notable roles, but shocktrooper is right - he was either a thug or stuntman on almost all Arnie's movies.

Does this mean Thorgrim is on the list of upcoming projects ?

Yes Thulsa doom, thorgrim and other Conan thugee are on my list... Thulsa next, head sculpt reveal any day now :wink1:

Re: Gladiator tigris shipping

Looks great shock! And that kit you sculpted is outstanding!
 
Re: Gladiator tigris shipping

Like the painted sculpted look. Curious to see a shot of the head under the helmet. Maybe I missed it?
