Holiday Cheer: Krampus
Not sure if Krampus counts as cheer but he’s definitely Xmas. This is the Mantic version for Hellboy (in resin). Really nice model and it was a joy to put together. This is even turning out to be a holiday tradition as last year it was Xmas Hellboy. I’ll have to figure out what it’ll be next year.
Any ideas of holiday models that you have for next year let me know. I was thinking the fat Juan Juan for Infinity but I really didn’t end up liking the sculpt—not that I don’t think it’s a good sculpt. I just have an issue with chopper style bikes being ridden for military purpose as they are immensely impractical in that arena. There’s a reason no police or military force I know of has ever used them and so they just strike a discordant note for me when they show up in Infinity. And yes, I do realize that complaining about a lack of “realism” is completely misplaced in a game with robot koalas and absurd mechs but…it’s just a personal quirk.
I was planning on doing something different with his sash as I wasn’t sure white was appropriate. However, everything else I tried just really didn’t provide a contrast to his blue/grey coloring so I reverted to white. I did throw in some mud/grime on the ends which I really like.
