WIP Critique Ulv og Ræv (wolf and fox) project

[franck edet]

Hi guys,
i'm thinking of "coupling" those two bad boys together and i would need your advices :

first : together or as stand alones ?
then : with or without the tree



The tree will be higher as it is actually as i think of having it grow on a kind of big rock, with apparent roots.
I'm waiting for your advised comments

Should be good Franck.

 

[Viking Bob]

With the tree looks good.

Hi Frank,
Everybody put Torstein at the left and Rolf at the right. Why not to try something different?
Just a friendly suggestion!
If you decide to put them together, it might be a good idea to place them on different levels.

I think they are a natural pair and I agree with Fantomas' comments.

 

[franck edet]

thank you all,

Alex, you're right, i guess that their poses tend to have Rolf on the right ... i will try some other various set ups

 

[Mjølner]

Interesting idea you have, looking good and will follow.
By the way, do you have danish relations? I am thinking about the "æ" in ræv

 

[franck edet]

Hello Brian, thanks for the kind words !
no i don't have any danish relation, but o used google translator : french to danish

 

[Mjølner]

That is impressive, you've hit it spot on
Ohh...by the way, I think you should use the tree, would look great ;-)

 

[captnenglish]

Together with the tree. I also agree with Fantomas

 

[megroot]

Totally agree with Fantomas.
Give's more tension into the whole vignette.

Hello, I say nice idea, but I would put that on the back holding the shield to the right of the other. In this way they would look at all and two in the same direction, otherwise they are each on their own, as twin and not a skit.

 

[franck edet]

thank you all

 

[Osebor]

Together, with tree, no doubt!

 

[franck edet]

Fantomas was right : it definitely looks better that way (to me at least ...)

 

[Fantomas]

Hey, Frank.
What do you think about putting a spear into Rolf's hand instead of a hatchet?
Regards,
Alex

Place the figures at different levels for added interest. Looking good.

Hi friends
as i didn't find any raven in 75mm scale i followed some planeteers advices and sculpted it ... that was a big first for me
but it finally looks pretty much like a raven, i've used bondo mastic to create some texture on the "feathers" maybe a little on the overdone side, but i think that once painted it will give
some "life" to it

from various website i found the sizes for the european great raven so once to scle i finished with a wingspan of 6 cms for a 3 cms body (1/24 scale)



as usual all your comments are welcome !
