Statuesque Miniatures Hire a Roguish Tyke
June 19, 2012 by brennon
Statuesque Miniatures continue with their line of great looking and characterful miniatures with Ezmeralda Tyke. Check out this roguish hired sword below...
This comes in as the first Fantasy female available on their online store and she starts things off with a bit of a bang. A great stealthy stance and I love the attention to detail in the positioning of the feet as she slowly but surely makes her way forwards.
A perfect role-playing model for an Elf or Half-Elf Rogue.
What do you make of this stealthy Elf?
I love the minis from Statuesque.. in particular the SOE range, which are perfect for a Spycraft RPG due to the modern weapons and gear rendered in good detail. If I ever had the money to get a custom sculpt done, I know who I would go to!
Very refreshing to see a model that, while dynamic, isn’t leaping forward in a heroic attempt to disembowel some poor monster. This is an elegant, finely sculpted piece with real narrative and a sense of gracefulness in the tiptoed movement – definitely one to pick up at some point if you need a rogue or ranger with elven blood in it and one to purchase right NAO if you use true line-of-sight rules… 😉
If by narrative you mean the right hand making a certain gesture… LOL
Super have to agree with the above comments.
Priceless! I honestly missed that one, she must be doing it to a halfling as she’s so low to the ground! 😉 Cheers!
lol That really is a bit close to the knuckle! o.O
OK this might sound silly but I’m Canadian and have the slightest idea of what your talking about. Is a fist a bad gesture that we over on the American continent would be ignorant of? For some reason I’m getting negatives for commenting that I like the model.
PM sent Manpug! 😉
Have included detailed photos to explain everything most graphically!
No idea about the negs unless someone hit the button by accident or the Phantom Negvoter has struck at THC again but got mixed up and done a downer on you by mistake! lol
Why does the Leave it to Beaver show come to mind when you wrote that you’ll explain everything to me? “Blushing”
Make a cool waywatcher
I like the pose she has.
@manpug – I can’t reply to your question so I’ll do it here…simply put I think my troll is attacking you and @chibi too now and I don’t know why. Best guess is they’re jealous of high karma scores since other posts have negatives in them too. I don’t think it’s anything to do with the ‘gesture’ conversation, that’s a joke we were having carried over from that Tercio Creativo thief sculpt seen earlier. I’ve thumbed you back up, but best to ignore it – don’t feed the troll! 🙂
Mech has also just been voted down
Must be the stealthy elf cos she doesn’t like what we said about her and Halflings! lol
Such a proud touchy race, Elves.
Maybe I should not have said touchy given what has gone before. :*)
That sculpt is rather nice and I am liking how dynamic that pose is.
I think this might be Statuesque’s best so far. It’s the most believable of their dynamic poses that I’ve seen. Kind of wish her right hand were doing something, like readying an arrow or something, but still a great sculpt. I’ve always appreciated the skill of their sculpts, but most of them are just a little too cheesecake for my tastes. This figure is both attractive and potentially useful in an actual game. Hope to see more like this from them.
She doesn’t seem to have any arrows maybe there is a quiver to be attached that she is drawing an arrow from that would explain the right hand.
Very nicely posed, one of those must have figures.
Could be the quiver will be a separate part and has not been shown attached on the green.
Unless she is doing something to a Halfling the elven thief may be holding a dagger back handed. Again to be added as a separate part.
