Sphere Wars’ Ikarus Gets Ready to Punch the Sun
February 18, 2013 by dracs
Some new previews have gone up of an upcoming miniature who will be swooping into Sphere Wars. Keep and eye on the skies for Ikarus.
Forget not flying too close to the sun, this guy looks like he's ready to go up there and punch it!
The miniature has a really cool design and a great level of detail, particularly on the ornate armour and guns. however, the pose is just too static and really lets it down. He looks like he's getting ready to block someone in American Football.
What are your thoughts on this? Are you put off by the pose, or does it not bother you?
Glad to see they’re pushing on. Some of the Spherewars sculpts are amazing, I’m especially fond of the Adepts faction http://www.spherewars.es/en/sphereshop/product/67-moray-man/category_pathway-16
Any models that are made of chocolate is all good by me, hehe.
Not to keen on the Space Invader pose, but other than that, nice looking mini. Maybe a nice conversion piece?
Stiff, stiff, stiff… And not in a good way !
Yet again, another stiff CGI mini.
Even the wings look stiff…
I sure hope this isn’t the final pose !
I’m with you on this one Romain. I hope this is just a test that the proportions are correct and not the final pose.
It’s only computer 3d model…
This Hordefinity game looks interesting.
I would assume (and indeed hope) that this pose is just the first mock up of the model. It looks like it’s been done to give the CGI artist a better look at the model, and you would hope the next stage is posing it.

Ok, but can he pick up a dime? Silly way to mount weapons.
