well, a fart of a unicorn, that is what sometimes happens in Roman's brain. An inspiration that strikes from nowwhere and is rather unusual for him to paint it in this way. Frankly, not very often, but when it happens I just let it come with arms wide open and enjoy the outcome. A fart of a Unicorn.
It happened to me some weeks back while Mike from the US visited the jungle in Augsburg, during the time of the Duke of Bavaria. He wrote a wonderful review over on his blog, check it out here!
While at the Duke Event Roman found some small white metal elves. Sadly they were just packed in a plastic zipper and Roman has no idea where they come from. Really tiny ones, about one centimeter in height and really he did like them. Roman gave one a joyous paintjob and forced Mike to take it as a gift from him. See for yourself please ...
The model is really tiny, like being mentioned, here you can see the tiny elf in blue, close to some other models and a color pot for size comparision:
It was truely a lot of fun letting this fart of a unicorn go wild, with colors, glittery stuff and more bling, bling. I hope you like this elf too:
A fart of a Unicorn
Mike was rather surprised, but well everyone would be if a unicorn farts at you and you have to take the result home :D
Cheers, Mike!
Roman
Nice job!
ReplyDeleteTo solve the mystery of the mini's identity and origin: it's a Magical Ballerina Fairy Princess sculpted by Tom Meier:

What the fart? So weird. nice work o_O
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ana. I felt Tom Meier while painting her. Really cool! Thanks a bunch!
ReplyDeleteEvidence that Roman can make even a fart look beautiful, ha, ha!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love this piece. I was so jealous when Roman showed us his discovery of these unique and whimsical "toughs". He had snatched up all of them!
I suggested he should make a diorama, but he resisted the idea. Little did I know the conniving idea that he had in mind.
The girl pronounces that she loves girlish things with no apologies. "Glitter is great. Don't tread on me." The art is strong in this one!
I show this treasure with great joy in my display case. It is an absolutely wonderful gift. This piece captures the spirit and wonderment that I enjoyed during my week with Massive Voodoo. It warms my heart and brings a smile to my face every time I look at it. Thank you again, Roman!
Why i have to think of Borderlands 2 - Bunkers an Badasses?
