Description
This wasn't really meant to be a chesspiece, but it reminded me of a knight when I was sculpting it. I made this a week ago when I really need to get this sculpy bug out of me. I probably should have been doing my homework. XD Anyway, it's Wolf Nymph in gryphon form, just for fun!Size: Approximatly 2" tall
Medium: Sculpy Firm
Painted with acrylics, coated with a spray enamel and embellished with green Peridot gems

Wow. O.O That is just... Uh, I can't say it's greatest tiny figure I've seen, 'cause I do collect Warhammer figures, but even so this one caught my eyes emmediately. Its great! It's beautiful! All those details and that smooth coloring (have you ever tried to paint a Warhammer figure?)
Hmm, and it made me to think... If we just imagine thet you would ever do a commissions of these, how much you'd think they'd cost? 'Cause I surely would like to have at least one of them!

Hooray, I'm happy you like it! XD I haven't tried, I have a friend who does that though and he's REALLY good at it. Tiny brushes are a blessing. Anyway, I actually am going to take commissions for these. I will send you a note!

Yup, thank yous to gods for tiny paintbrushes.
Oh, you do take commissions? That's great! I still have some stuffing in my Paypal begging to be wasted on "cool stuff" like these.

But my favorite part is the Peridot. Cuz that's my monthstone.

Very cool! Would you take commissions for them? I think they would sell well (you probably have one potential costumer already

๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Well, I didn't mean for it to actually be a chesspiece, but if I had to assign it one, I think it would be a knight. =3
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
why dont you make a hold seat and sell it, it would proble sell well
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Because it took me about 12 hours to make this one piece, and I am both employed and have full time school.
