More great shots WG, paint apps really look good.
How are the legs? Or should I ask?

MaulFan said:Macro is tricky WG, sometimes I shoot a figure with the focus pointing at the eyes to get them clearest and it'll catch the nose and do that best so the eyes and face are blurry, not flattering but one thing I've learned, in macro mode, hold the camera as far away as you can, with zoom in at it's fullest then bring the camera closer if need be, by using zoom instead of being on top of the subject, it seems to make bend and distortion lessen.
I believe you. I will probably feel the same way when mine arrives. Will you take some pictures of him stabbing something with an arrow?Wor-Gar said:It really doesn't look like it in person. In fact, my own pictures don't really capture how he looks in hand. Its that damn macro lens -- it does in fact distort the face a bit, which seems to really effect this particular sculpt. I promise you, in hand, its a perfect little Orlando Bloom.
Anyway, I have a couple more pictures but photobucket is now down for me. I'll try again after dinner. But I won't get really good shots until tomorrow in the daylight.

galactiboy said:Thanks as always for your shots and first impressions Wor Gar. You always seem to give a very balanced impression of figures... which seems hard to get at times It almost makes up for the insane jealousy that you always get your figures before me
Almost...
Maybe an orange...Wor-Gar said:Sure, OK, how about stabbing something in my kitchen?
Wor-Gar said:That makes sense. I don't have a fancy camera -- its an old digital elf from like 2001. I'll try the zoom in thing though. Will macro work if I stand further back though?
MaulFan said:WG, sounds like from your description that Andy did with Legolas what he gets in most of his sculpts which seems to be a bit of life and attitude without being in a specific facial pose, like T-800 and T-1000 and Obi-Wan, they all have some focus, determination and aggression to them, but it's subtle so the face pose isn't specific, which is one of Andy's best traits in sculpting these.
Wor-Gar said:Yeah, capturing that subtlety of an attitude is a real art. And this is a great example of when it works well.
