My first Mage Knight limited edition metal miniature. I really enjoyed working on this mini - the sculpt is great with great detail. The face was exquisite and a joy to bring out the models character.
My only disappointment was the base itself. Instead of giving the metal knight the stat base - they put in the box a limited edition base with the name of the model - no stats.
The front and rear scans came out well. The side scan I had to tack the model to the side of the box and I am afraid that the depth might have been too deep for the scanner. I really wanted to get a good scan of the face as it was nicely sculpted and easy to bring out the details.
