Ah, Jim Raynor!! Now theres a name I haven\'t heard for a while.


Looking very good, although in that very first sculpt pic, he looks a bit like Alan Rickman.

very promising though!

EXPELLIARMUS! :p

Nicely done, but the hair doesn\'t look right - I don\'t think the character has a centre-parting does he?

Nice. When you\'re done, you should post it the Fan Art section on Blizzard\'s website. They need to make more minis. I\'m looking forward to the PPP WoW game, but I\'d like just regular minis again from them.

Sorry if this causes a thread hijacking, but has anyone seen the old Diablo mini sets available anywhere?

the forehead goesn\'t look right to my eye. The brow line is abit more pronounced in the art work. Bruce Willis-ish/ very square head shape. You look (to me) to have a rounder head.
just M2C although, Will like to see this finished up and painted.

comments, and please don\'t take it that I\'m trying to knock on your work here, but.
First here\'s why I\'m think this way. The fluf on the StarCraft 2 website has Jimmy boy here still fighting the noble fight but with little money and less outside help. Picking up merc jobs just to pay the bills. I thinking something like the plot in tv show Serinity <sp?>. So a dirty nonconformist look is in order.
One: The pose is to straight, he should be slumping alittle. He\'s got to look out for himself, his men, and the rest of the verse. The man has alot on his shoulders and it wears him down abit but he\'s up to the task...
Two: Sorry the head still doesn\'t look right to me, to round/ soft. bring the forehead more inline with the cheaks, kick the brow out abit, and square everthing. Bruce Willis, Clint Eastwood, Cro-mana man, the whole \"noble lines\" (my thinking). As for the hair, parted on his left?
Three: Body, too heroic. Grunge, think Kirk Coban, weedy but musclar. Not alot of food, but lots of exerice equipment.
Four: equipment, his weapon. From the looks of things, you went with more of a P-90 ish look, boxy and shortish. I guess that I see from the pic, more of a shotgun with a combat grip, cut down abit, magazine fed, with a scope. And if you do try this sculpt again, and maybe it the pics, try to pronouse the combat boots/greeves more. This connects the charater to the first game. Protection from the heat of the engine, and rocks kicked up from the road.
So in closing Bruce Willis as a Noble, Grunge, Biker, Cowboy (if that makes any scence.):D:D
Again please don\'t take anything that I write as a knock on your work, as that is not the attent.
p.s. Oh and if memory serves a Vulture is similar to a Elder jet bike in shape. Abit bulker and with a grenade launcher and no true flight ablities.

54 or 72! Now that sounds like a sweet idea! You\'ve got the skills and I would think that a person could really get the details at those scales. Heck, if I had the money I\'d buy one.
