The hero, i started whit this figure in 2010 dec.
Just tryed the clay i got.
It dryed fast so i worked wiht Dremel tool.
After that i got the Magic sculp and added it on.

It is little bigger than 1/16 scale or 130mm
i decided to make a diorama for it, i a found a base 25x25cm.

Began planning

Thougt it's around 1300s somewhere in Europe,
the knight have just fought a small battle.
And enemy retreated leaving, most of the equipment

Base with styrofoam and figure( planing )





papier mache mix whit plaster added





Air brushed

Thought dont know when they started tu use stake




I will add more pictures later

I think it wasn´t unusual to drop the weapons for the retreat with the aim to run faster. For example a roman shield had a weight of about 10kg! So your idea of dropping the weapons is good, I think. And the dio looks very nice so far. I like the pattern on the knights clothes! GREAT! And the weapons are nicely done. The arrows are so detailed!!

Beautiful work! I have long viewed each picture. Many fine details. And a lot of hard work! This guy is certainly a great ... compared with the usual for me, kids ... but very high quality you've done! Want to see the end of the work!

Impressive work , really nice . The groundwork is awesome , but one thing i have to say is the Pose seems a bit too calm ...
how can i explain ? After the fight i imagine a Knight tired or in a Pose that shows he has won .
Can´t wait to see it finished

Yea thanks i agree the figure dident get 100%
I didn't get the figure left arm good also "the legs could be longer.
Perhaps he look at rascals that fleeing.

i wanted to create a moist environment, But dont think a over spray with glossy, does it?

Looks very cool but the bolt is too long for this crossbow. You could cut a piece out of the middle and glue both ends together. The siege machines were made in a plastic that "melts" together when glued with plastic glue. I think a bit less than half the lenght of the crossbow should be acceptable for a xbow-bolt...
