Rather Warhammery in style but nevertheless a fantastic sculpt with great detail.

I wonder whether he would consider doing other, more 'neutral' generics in 28mm scale that might be useable in Middle-earth?

Good luck to him!

I havepre-ordered one of these and am looking forward to more from this guy. He said on Cmon that he is going to do alot of different races so I will be keeping a keen eye out for that.

I have seen some of his work before for Warmachine and Hordes from Privateer Press where he is employed full time (with fellow super talented ex-GW employee Mike McVey).

The detail is superb and I would love to see a high quality painted version of this mini. I wish him a cheery "good luck" with his private venture - he's certainly got the talent to produce some best-selling models.

i can't belive someone from GW has this much quality in his models
that is great work i think i'll be looking into ordering something a little later down the road when my cash flow increases.

*whistles* wow that is quite impressive, so much action in one pose! GW never does that very much with so many of its heroes.
