Diablo3 Barbarian

This next piece is the largest kit I've ever painted; it is 1/4 scale and more than 2 ft wide, 2ft deep, and about 3 ft tall. In total, it probably weighs more than 60 lbs. The sculpt is based on concept art from the video game Diablo 3 and depicts the barbarian character defeating the foe for which the game is named, Diablo. It was sculpted by the amazing Franco Carlesimo (you need to check out his work) and was a very limited edition run. Most of the pieces produced were pre-paints and only very few kits were produced. In total, I spent more than 200 hours building and painting this massive piece. You will notice pictures of two different weapons ... the kit came with magnets to allow the weapons to be swapped. As always, it was entirely hand-painted using acrylics and inks ... I think my forearms have grown a size while painting him. It's SO huge, that he was difficult to light and to arrange for pictures but I've hopefully captured plenty of interesting angles.

I hope you like this piece. I feel like it's one of my best.
