I have been working on the old metal Nekima model recently. I really liked the art, but the miniature leaves a bit to be desired. So I decided to try to bring the model more in line with the art. I originally intended just to change the pose (the weakest aspect of the model in my opinion) by bending and twisting the metal, but I couldn't acheive the result I wanted. So, the changes ended up being pretty extensive--chopping off all of the limbs and even the torso in half, then sculpting the transitions and areas I thought were not-so-great on the original miniature (bottom of the garment, fur on shoulders, stomach). Now I can move on to painting it! Let me know what you think
