Scythian King (1 Viewer)

[blaster]

I bought this great looking figure from Art Girona. The head, although beautiful, had always looked small to me. Hence I added some putty to the cheeks and rebuilt the ears and hair.

The Scythians had always been known to be great warriors on horseback - what more the king? So I've decided to redo the figure as a mounted piece.

This base is planned for this figure. I built up the groundwork with wall putty to simulate pieces of cork sections which I had cut out and pasted to the base.

I took out this piece to see about moving it forward. Also changed the horse's pose.

How is this progressing?

Hi Jason.

thx for looking. No progress on this. Far too many projects started. I do these pieces in between my more ambitious 3D shadow boxes and I have already planned to do a few more soon….

Nice base Victor. Should look more impressive with the Scythian King and horse attached.
The Scythians are a rich field for the figure modeler. I enjoy reading their history or even historical fiction based on their existence.

I resculpted the neck of the horse.
