Fire Troll
My entry for Round 2 of The Tourney.
My category was: Possibly one of the strangest and most dangerous semi-sentient creatures in the lands, fire trolls are known to live deep underground near lava reservoirs; their unnaturally heat-resistant skin allows them to survive the high temperatures found there. Another strange feature is their ability to breath fire; this is thanks to a liquid they spray from glands in their mouths. This liquid is incredibly valuable as it is used to make Enalican Fire. Your character’s job is to hunt down one of these trolls and harvest the liquid. While an underground scene is encouraged, it is not required.
My guild is the Archdukes of Chaa-Buk-Buk, and my opponent is LegoFin. Good Luck!
As you may be able to see, I did not have time for a scene. I did, however, have time for a quite massive troll (by my standards, at least). My main focus was on articulation: I included joints at the ankles, knees, hips, waist, neck, elbow, and two joints per finger. The shoulders have two different joints to allow for three directions of rotation. As such, this figure is very pose-able. Most of my time was spent on the head, which took me three hours to get right.
My apologies for the bad pictures. They were taken at the last minute to make the deadline. I may be retaking them next weekend.
