That is awesome
what a wonderful sculpt. |

I used to think that 15mm limited the sculptor's ability to create recognizable characters. Humbly, I stand corrected. |

That's amazing detail for 15mm. I can put her to good use! |

Nice, but have 40 bucks on order already. Maybe after the July trip to Ireland. Lee |

Wow, thats tiny, great sculpt. |

Great sculpt, too energetic for a miniature figure. |

No such thing as too energetic, not if done correctly.  |

I hope that's a giant penny in the photo, like the size of a frisbee! |

Too Energetic, yes. I avoid figures that are in the act of falling over, or other large actions in the same way a lot of people avoid prone figures. The tend to take up more room than they should. Save the energetic poses for those who only paint their figures for show. I play with mine and find more generic poses look better in the variety of situations my short little fellows find themselves in. |

I agree with Infojunky. Nice sculpt by the way. |

Though she might be small enough that even at a comic book dodge she won't have any more table footprint than the adults. |

The tend to take up more room than they should. The model's base is exactly the same size as that on my other 15mm figures. |

This is a brilliantly executed figure IMHO, the wet blanket nay-sayers comments carry no weight with me, not even a penny's worth
 Tagged for acquisition when the JTFB is finally released; I need a plucky princess stand-in to lead at least one brigade's worth of troops

Not Nay saying just using an example
.. As I ALSO Said Great Figure. And I probably will get one, when the cash presents itself. |

Well actually BWP I don't think it's naysaying, like Eyvn says there are just customer preferences. I just responded to let him know that the more dynamic pose did not result in a big base. And if you want a princess to lead the JTFB, I've got a queen! Sculpted by the same sculpy magician BTW

They dared question Khurasan Miniatures and are therefore heretics I say, and I say BURN THEM! BURN THEM!!
And if you want a princess to lead the JTFB, I've got a queen! Sculpted by the same sculpy magician BTW
. And an august and regal personage for which I have been patiently waiting for for how long now
? Lessee, the Queen Herself, at least one of each JTFB fire team, at least enough sets of the Strapal levies to fill out a full-strength rifle platoon, nobles riding in grav chariots sufficient for at least a frontline command/support detachment, with plans to expand the quantities accordingly depending upon what is released and what the final price points add up to
<sigh> Ah, well, some day

P.S. Took some shots of my finished Polecat earlier this evening. I'll post them in my online album along with other bits later today; the Polecat is finished in a two-tone desert camo spec, since everyone else has done theirs apparently in a temperate zone green spec, so I naturally just had to play the contrarian
