This is too good to be kept a secret, anymore :hat off
Been sitting on this piece of news for a very, very long time - even got myself a prototype cast of this beauty, and I couldn’t share - but now its official and has entered the funding stage, and was kickstarted yesterday.
My good friend John Pickford (and creator of the Ewal Dwergar) have been sculpting his interpretation of the Old Chaos Dwarf Siege Cannon coughAss Cannoncough. The sculpt started as an idea in a Facebook Group and due to the efforts of Mr. Dunn, it was materialised and might now become available to all - if the KS is successful.
Yes, a bit of bad timing but in their defence, both projects ran simultaneously and two very different approaches on the subject. For this one. We paid our deposits back in November 2015 and original planned being delivered to the project member in June 2016 - but Mr. Dunn had to start the mould process all over (after resculpting a lot of details) due to a huge failure, made be the caster. Luckily the sculpt was to be saved.
Great mini, love the face! and also; 4 man crew!!! Oh and also… John Pickford :cheers
I also really like Atom Taylors cannon, just wish he had made the barrel thicker, but his crew is a great replacement for the original Nick Lund cannon crew.
Like Clam, I got myself one of the 10 prototype cast as well and I can only agree with him. They are beautiful, even more in person. For those that are collecting Big Hats - like myself - the 3 crewman (not the leader) come in pieces and the hats can be very easily exchanged with those from Russian Alternative.
I also have the one from Atom Taylor and it’s a total different approach.
If I would have to choose between the 2 of them, I couldn’t. Both are great in their own way and not comparable with each other.
