Does This Forsaken Princess Need Rescuing?
February 21, 2013 by brennon
Ax Faction are looking to The Forsaken Princess for their next miniature and below is the artwork and detail sketches for this new sculpt. Check this Witch Hunter out and look forwards to it soon!
As you can see she has this witch hunting down to a fine art. The fantasy armour is of course crazy as usual and I can't imagine it works well when your hunting but it looks good for a pin-up style miniature at least.
While this isn't my favourite of the hunters, I prefer the more celtic and nordic designs, she certainly will be interesting to see finished.
What do you think of her?
Okay, foot on a witch is a nice change from a pebble, but other pet hates are good to go.
Especially the very silly cossie, Good grief woman, use the cloth to cover yourself: instead of having it billow uselessly between your legs. Brazen hussy 😛
From now on I shall such cloth a pussy tail.
“If it’s nearly right, but it isn’t right, better to have none, than make do with one.” Scale armour in this case.
Let me try that again “If it’s nearly right, but it isn’t QUITE, better to have none, than make do with one.” Scale armour in this case.

I agree though, how many times do you pose for a photo with your foot on something? Family photo whilst standing on your pet/cousin/kid… I think not. There are so many other possibilities, but the cliche poses somehow always get sculpted.
As for the lack of clothing, that doesn’t really bother me (*cough* perv *cough*) as long as there’s something new on offer, which sadly there isn’t here. Plus the artwork makes the pose look really awkward, try standing like that without falling over!
Didn’t fall over but I think I did my hamstring a mischief.
In high heels, no less…
Broke a heel 🙁
The most unusual thing for me is the way she’s holding the sword. And the foreshortening of the image isn’t exactly clear. Either her left arm is cartoonishly long or she’s holding that sword by the blade directly above, and possibly resting on, her left shin. And yeah, why is she even wearing fabric at all? It’s not covering anything. The way it trails well off of her body (just ready to be grabbed, snagged or yanked) actually makes it more dangerous than if she were naked. I’m so weary of the same adolescent tropes in fantasy illustration. The style… Read more »
Give her some credit guys, she is wearing a face vale so she must be reserved.
Reserved by a gentleman client who shall remain anonymous! 😛
Now now @chibi behave yourself. 😉
