    So I'm just gonna ask right out, what the hell is it?! If that's a dumb question, sorry. I mean I see the name "Salamander" but can't make out the sculpt, is it a salamander dude? It's like a pile of internal organs formed to make a being. It's awesome for SURE though!

    Salamander Joe is very stunning Paul! You did an excellent job with the sculpt and I can't wait for him to be painted up! A "minimal" paint job will probably suit the sculpt very well. I could see myself switching the little companion from on to off of Joe, and this detail increases the playability of this guy! So glad it all worked out, and now I ABSOLUTLEY must find a SDCC ticket!!!!

    Yeah all that.
    He is the giant version of Welt Sejin.
    The name "Salamander Joe" was earned from various unexplained sightings on earth. Like "Bigfoot" or "Nessie" or "Mothman" or "Violent Caveman".
    It's an earthman's term because he is slimy and smelly.

    He is able to cross dimensions and space at will and he's all "corrupted" and butt hurt evil becuase of it.
    Hope that was specific enough.

    You don't know that.

    From the get-go I absolutely loved the name, but was indeed confused as well! I even had to google "salamander" to reaffirm my knowledge on what they were. :lol:

    Plenty specific, plus I'm glad to get a little story out of it thanks! I just wasn't sure if there was some salamanders in the sculpt I totally couldn't make out :lol:

    Well, the salamander will make more sense with some paint ideas I have.

    Looks good Paul, I think I need to warm up to it a little though... it's a bit crazier then the Boss Carrion (didn't think I'd ever say those words!) but it looks interesting!

    Wow! Full size Welt looks so good.
    Pink sprays on a lime green base vinyl would be beautiful!
    LOVE the evil little snapping cyclops weapon.

    Biter Mite kicks ass! I love the way it's face? comes out of the rolls. The part about picking up debris while dimension traveling is the perfect back story for all those chunky bits. I predict a lot of dropping jaws when we see some paint.
