I won't be getting stuck into the Challenge until next year, but did want to get some festive points on the scoreboard. I'll put up more of an 'about me' post later as well. Maybe this entry says plenty about me anyway?
This is Snowflake from Imitation of Life, a growing 3D sculpt range I really like. He's on a 40mm base and is 8cm to the tip of his antlers. I'm getting more confident in the use of Contrast as a time saver.
80mm tall monster: 10 points?

Pretty trippy, Barks. I really like him. I can't decide if it's the ornaments hanging off his antlers, or the red rockstar pants. Delightfully weird and cool mini.

Awesome figure to start off with Barks! Nice one!
ReplyDeleteCheers Sander
Thanks, Sander! Good to be back.
DeleteThat's a fantastic mini
ReplyDeleteCheers, Miles! Can see some fun scenarios.
DeleteCracking start Barks! Lovely little sculpt. And a 3D designer I hadn't heard of. Have to look into it more as this sculpt is amazing!
ReplyDeleteHis other sculpts have this early 90s Citadel vibe I really like.
DeleteThat's a totally bonkers figure, Barks - lovely stuff! :)
ReplyDeleteI’m sure I’ve seen more bonkers in the Challenge!
DeleteI don't know, you most likely need a narrative scenario, if you want to play with him. Well done!
ReplyDeleteI’ve got something in mind- maybe next year, unfortunately.
DeleteNice one mate - good to get off the mark!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Paul! I think he’s related to your beastmen herd.
DeleteGreat looking Slanesh type, no skulls?
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
A disappointing lack of skullz, to be sure.

ReplyDeletePurest work Barks on this rather twisted reindeer. Love the blades along the candy cane.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Peter!
DeleteOh wow, I love that model. Excellent stuff!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Lee!
DeleteThat's a great start! Lovely figure and I like the colour scheme. And those trousers!!
ReplyDeleteThe trousers are popular!
DeleteHe’s great Barks but not sure I want him leaving anything under my tree, like a severed head or something equally grym! Lovely first entry.
ReplyDeleteCheers, MikeP
He only does that for bad boys and girls- and you have been good, haven’t you, Padre? Haven’t you?
DeleteGreat Stuff!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Adam!
DeleteCool
ReplyDeleteThanks, Martin!
DeleteLove the red pants- I expect to see him on stage with Spinal Tap during their next reunion tour.
ReplyDeleteHe wields a mean axe.
DeleteA great, if not disconcerting figure. I can see why you like it, and you've done a top paint-job on it too.
ReplyDeleteI could only paint him in late December!
DeleteThis ornaments hanging from his rack make me smile! The snazzy red pants definitely make this figure stand out :)
ReplyDeleteI do like the terrifying antler decorations.
DeleteNeedz more skullz!
ReplyDelete😉
You’re not wrong…
DeleteVery festive looking chap.
ReplyDeleteHo ho ho!
DeleteWell there's odd, great opening salvo
ReplyDeleteThanks, Paul!
DeleteNice work!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteWell done Barks! I am looking forward to more amusing posts from you during Challenge XII
ReplyDeleteCheers
Jonathan
I aim to please!
DeleteGreetings, Barks! A festive fellow he is! I really like the ornaments on his antlers. The whole model is very nice, but I really like the different reds and greens. Seems like he just smashed through a Christmas tree! ;)
ReplyDeleteThat’s the idea I was going for! I did abandon any thought of a snowy base, though.
