Yeah, he landed, but I'm working away from my usual studio most of this week. I'll try and get a couple of 'quick shots before the weekend if I can!
He's pretty damn amazing, a guy I work with saw him when he arrived yesterday, he's the type of guy that would never be into 'toys' but even he said 'I have to have one', he asked the price and didn't bat an eyelid, just said 'worth every penny'.
My wife has taken quite a shine to him too, can't think why?

Can you tell if the body has a wire joints or actual joints like the Shiva arms?

I'm sure its a mystery

Is a pretty good looking figure. Very tempted at the moment. Doesnt help that I'm in the mood to just buy a figure for the sake of it

I need to do some more exploring, but the elbows seem to be wire, the rest are more mechanical.

This one is now ordered from angolz.com
Will sell the heads and other loose stuff when it arrives.

Yeah, the world of illustration can flip on a sixpence, I've got work coming out of my ears at the moment!

My 'on line' presence is pretty non existent, I let my so called website crumble to dust a while back. I could PM you a couple of pics, but it's a mixed bag, mostly editorial and advertising with a bit of TV work for good measure. My latest project is more concept orientated for theme parks.
But enough derailing, back to Leo, here are a few crappy pics I took last night, but I did promise 'something'!

That looks sexy and stellar.

Looks awesome, but I'm still concerned about the rubber breaking down over time.

Great pics there!

Hey Wook great pics as always, I really like the sculpt with the helmet on I think it disguises any flaws in it, however small they may be in the first place!
Just wondering though, that line at the top of his thigh, is that a mark in the rubber or is it meant to be there?

 

[Lord Vicious]

Thanks for the pics, mate! He looks awesome

I had him in a squatting, shield and arrow forward pose for a day or so, and they are indents, they are slowly disappearing, might need a blast from a hairdryer to pop back fully.

Heres a pic of my King Leonidas... He is on display at my booth at Frank & Son! Awesome figure, i'm very impressed with it!

Just got king Leo 2 days ago. U was playing around with him. His arm got stuck and I couldn't get it out of a weird position.
Maybe i forced to hard but the shoulder joint snapped inside. The arm looks fine. No one would notice he just lost some mobility. Kinda depressing though. He is a great figure!!!!!

Rolando and Wookster, great pics guys. A surprise hit in my book. I may have to add this baby to my collection
