Hey, what is up, guys ?

A 6“-version of Fimbul, was on my whistlist, for years. It took quite some time to find a suitable base-figure, since I wanted him to have stoop, or ducked posture. Looks a little bit more intimidating.

A „lensing necro“ was exactly what I was looking for, but was hard to find.

Recipe :

Dremeled down the uneven structure on arms; neck and upper body; shortened the arms, then resculpted everything. Kept the upper section of its thighs and just the feet, from the ankles downwards. Replaced the rest, by legs of an Saruman-figure, which are a little bit modified. Connected by a plug and socket. Resculpted the transitions; thighs, shinguards and shoes. Straps of the shinguards are faux-leather with sculpted buckles.
Modified and sculpted over an orc overseer-head, which was just perfect as base.

For the extraordinary bone-structure around his neck, I’ve sculpted over a base, made of modified blister-packagings, from lightbulbs.
The spear is made from one modified Prologue elven warrior-lance.
The ⚡️-shaped „dagger“ is made from a handle of a Haradrim-sword; a handle and blade of a Sam in orc armor-sword.
The mace is made of wood.

The additional right grip-hand, comes from an sculpted over Eomer-figure.

The tunic is made of an rubber-glove.

Modified and painted a coat of Sauron.

Some leather for the shoulders.

Citadel colors :
Imperial primer
Steel legion drab
Eldar flesh
Wrack white
Sylvaneth bark
Baneblade brown
Typhus corrosion
Leadbelcher
Eshin grey
Warpfiend grey
Flayed one flesh
Rakarth flesh
Dryad bark
Nuln oil
Agrax earthshade
Blood for the bloodking
Chadian fleshtone
Wrack white

Sealed with Valejo Matt clear varnish.

I hope you guys like it.

CHEERS !

Better than the 3.75 one. They didn’t capture his face or personality. Really think you captured him perfectly especially his face which looks right. I could never quite get it to where I was happy so gave up lol, but yours is really good!

Hi, Deaditor ! Where have you been ? Is it studying, and/or “womanizing”, what keeps you away from customizing ? 😉 Thank you very much ! Haha, to make it look better, than the 3,75” was the goal. 😄 Regards !

So danm cool !!!! Bad ass !!!! Grinmankey is right looks screen ready !!!!!! A little tip for the near future, the latex ( the rubber glove ) will start to break down over time ( become soft and gooey ) rub baby powder on it every 6 months or as needed to keep it's shape

Hi, Edgy ! Hahaa, THANKS, man ! 😄👍🏻 Well, I guess this „beauty life-hack“ might be a lil too „hipster“ for a filthy cutthroat, like Fimbul. I don’t wanna provoke him, to ram his dagger under my fingernail, when I‘m approaching this specific area, with baby-powder. Maybe I can talk him into a gentle rub, with stinky warg-tallow...down there. 🤔
I’m little bit concerned how the lady, at the drugstore, will react, if I ask for some fair trade-organic orc-garment-care-product, with mount-tang...and maybe...pumpkin-spice-flavour.? 🎃👅

😄

REGARDS ! 🤘🏻

Thank you !!!! Much appreciated, Grinmankey ! I wish, I‘d have a better picture editing-option. The results with the smartphone-app I’m using, are too blury and swallow to many details. ...but I‘m happy, that this dude is FINALLY done. Never had a figure with so many individual work steps. Awful ! 😄 Have a great weekend, man ! Bro Fist 👊🏻

that is stellar. it seriously looks like you somehow enlarged the 3.75" figure and made it better! Using the Lensing Necro was a super smart move. Also, a rubber glove for the tunic? Genius! I'm so happy you made this figure.. so great!!
