Many Mithril Pages @ Faerylands

We'll see, I expect to receive it in next few days... Most important here it was 50% lower price... On pictures Duinhir does not looks like figure with a big improvement in details than the prevoius MS miniatures...

Thanks Master twrich! Much appreciated!

Come on Master Barliman, what drink is this?? There is no bloody rat tail in it!!

David, I send you a email, because your post box is overflowing....

Replied, and thanks (will clean out the inbox)

I got mine yesterday.
The feeling about this figure is not the same as for hand sculpted, especially the cape and the face.
Anyway a nice Mithril.

My eys are even better, Master Tree- therefore I didn´t order that miniature at all.

Also the reason why I won´t take part into that painting competition.

Did you not want the figure or where you just not interested in that particular design?

@ Master mindx: I am not interesting in that particular design and therefore I don´t want that figure.
For my taste, the figure has got nothing particulary.
As far as the "new 3D-printer-thing is concerned I have to say, that my Easterling Champion, which is already ready for receiving some paint- is brilliant.
But as Master Thingol pointed out- no more special detail than the regular formed figures.

The position (again) of that "short sword" is ridiculous for a right-handed person, especially when the person is an archer. Those folds above the quiver with that very last arrow puzzle me a lot. What about the pose of the left leg on that stone? - (Another archer with a foot on a stone) ... Alas, there's no space between the cloak and that other stone ... why does he hold the bow that way? ...

I got quite discouraged and disappointed. No way an enterprise can spend that long time to end up in an inferior quality product.

Even without stripping the primer out it's quite evident. I will put some pictures here for you to see what I am talking, then you could check your own models and see.

Also all the model got a general effect of being a bit slanted to a side, that explains the thickness of the neck, the head and the bow I think.




@Theobald: the folds above the quiver are produced by the quiver's "belt" but it's almost invisible up there.

I fully agree with the above written statements. This figure is nothing special. There are a lot better figures than the this one. The figure was announced as spectacular one and it is made sloppy.... this is my humble opinion...

As far as my eyes are concerned, the figure is in no way anything different from what we've seen in the past, neither better nor worse. There have been earlier figures that could occasionally be said to be "sloppy" and nothing particularly special, but that will inevitably be the case from time to time. No one can be eternally perfect. And remember, this is one of The Man's first figures designed this way. We all learn and improve from experience! Personally I can't level any particular criticism at it, and, as has been said elsewhere, it it gets the backlog of Fellowship figures clerared that has to be a positive step.

I sent yesterday pictures for this painitng competititon.... so...  this figure might ultimately contribute to something good.... of course if I win first place.... ;-) anyway soon we'll see another figures...
