Like what? I mean, to me, it looks EXACTLY the same as the minis, just HUGE. But the sculpt seems dead on to the mini ones. Love the paint though, that's a nice green,.

while i see a nice friendly sleeping boy in the mini that seems to grim from ear to ear,
to me huge one looks very much alive like a killer, with its deep dark eyes
he seems to be waiting for a bait to come and get it with its big mouth – scary a little.
big lipps, high up, even a little cocky and much more western „in a good way“
maybe because of the glossy paint, don’t know.
contrast between matt unpainted grey belly
and glossy green back is really cool, love it too.

however, great one by gargamel&bwana short before year end!

Very cool. Finaly really sells the sculpt to me. I am sure it will look awesome in someone's killer collection.

I kinda get you now. The dynamics are totally improved due to it's mass, I love big things, though the actual design/sculpt is pretty much the same. But it's size really brings out a bit more character. Screw minis and micros BRING ON THE MAX-O'S!!!!(?)!!!!!

killer, as he was meant to be. When the killer was first released, I thought he was going to be big, so this is good to see. Killers don't do it for me though, but it's good to know he's out there in full effect.

I'm assuming those little cards on the table that you can barely see are business cards? That's a great sense of scale right there.

Love the green-metallic over primer look, but to my eye he needs some kind of paint on his lips, so the bottom half would look more distinct. With the lips in primer, to me it sorta looks like a green shell on his back.

Would love to see a pic that gave a sense of the scale. Nice work! Really great to see all these large-scale projects with the fancy auto paints.

It'd be cheaper to bring Bwana to your house to paint it than to pay for shipping to him and back. :lol:

The production run colors will be similar to this, but there will be more of a fade from top to bottom and the light blue on the bottom will have metal flake and the whole thing will be toped off with a glassy clear coat. The proto at VTN was painted by me with Montana Gold spray paints and HOK hobby spray paint. At this time, the production run should be 10. Bwana will also have some customs available. The price will be determined once I get production cost finalized. We have started collecting a list of people who are interested and they will be the first to get the info when it is time. So, any inquiries can be sent to me at efp3@cox.net. Check out my blog on the travels of Killer! http://efp3.blogspot.com/ I am glad everyone digs it!

You might want to put some floaties on it! :D If anyone in the Phoenix metro area wants to check out the proto, we have it on display at Kollectiv Art and Design. The gallery is on 2nd st and Garfield in down town Phoenix. So come down for first fridays or stop in Monday-Friday 11-4. The Killer should be ready for sale late spring or this summer.
