Thank you! I've been playing a bit too much WoW... But you did a really good job, looks just like in the game \o/

Not that familiar with WOW but he's a great little sculpt.

Looks awesome Dave - well done mate.

Great sculpt. I don't play WoW but I can tell he's a character from the game.

OH that is awesome!! I'm a big fan of WoW, has the customer requested anymore? Would love to see a human paladin done by someone with your skill. Theres a few WoW sculpts on coolminiornot.com but none with your skill. Great work.

Thanks for the compliment. I havent been asked to do any more yet. I did do a few humans from the Ragnarok online game for him though:

In case you all are wondering what i'm doing now, well its been mostly lotr conversions recently. You lot keep me quite busy these days (thanks). I also have a scratch sculpt pending for Crucium Giger, as well as all the stuff for DMS which he is being very patient about.

So I did a little bit of conversion work for BillFerny333 a while back. He says its ok to post the work here.

Firstly some chainmail hoods for a pair of Rohan riders:

Then some flaming Ringwraiths:

Also, another Cirith Ungol banner conversion:

You can see these painted in his blog:

The Cirith Ungol banner is really awesome, is that the second one you've done or are there more floating about the place?

Very cool! I love the rohirrim conversions!

Yes there are only two. The first was for DMS, which BillFerny saw and liked so he commissioned me to make him a replica.

Dave remind me what you use for sculpting nowadays please you've moved away from green stuff and I can't remember what it's called.

I seem to remember you saying what it was but I can't remember it. Azog is a silly forgetful goblin !

Azog · **Posted:** Thu May 02, 2013 6:50 pm

Some Googling later ... is it ProCreate and what are its advantages ?

Ukfreddybear · **Posted:** Thu May 02, 2013 7:07 pm

Yes mate ProCreate. It isn't as sticky as green stuff but other than that has many of the same qualities. I find it easier to smooth about. It also files better than green stuff once cured.

Dorthonion · **Posted:** Thu May 02, 2013 10:02 pm

Flaming Ringwraiths? Sounds insulting

They look neat.
The banner-bearer is great - extending and building very neatly and cleverly on the original design.
But for my rapidly depreciating pennysworth, the coifed Rohirrim are the best of the bunch. Why? because the conversion is so neat that it is effectively seamless with the original sculpts AND if you watch TTT and RotK you will see a significant number of riders and warriors wearing the coif (technical term for a chainmail hood). Excellent work UKFB.

Not an update from me in the strictest sense of the word, but I've just noticed the first online painted pic of the Halfling Farmer I did for Adepticon.

Love the Cirith Ungol banner.
