Tomb Raider (VIC9 thief)

This is a beautiful limited edition thief, sculpted by Werner Klocke. It was availabe for the Visions in Color 9 showcase. This is one of those figures that kind of evolved as I was painting it. Since he's a thief, I started by giving very earthy colors. Then I had some sort of strange revelation and started painting him up in tribute to one of my favorite movie characters. I thought he would make a great 14th century Indiana Jones. Hence the unshaven face, the leather coat, and morbid terror of serpents.

Great use of pieces from several things (just picked up the treasure pack with canopic jars myself =) and a gorgeous paintjob as well. I could nitpick only that the cobra looks slightly like a coral snake pattern but that is REALLY nitpicking. LOL Its wonderful!!

Missed this one! D'oh! I think that this is a much better set of Photographs than were in the VIC9 Gallery. The way the right hand is pointing I can almost hear him saying "Stay". :D.
