Redneck perhaps? ;p I like how you decided to go with more of an RP setting. Having it immortalized in the newest PvP gear or something like that is not near as unique as this. Though, I would think about posing in my Bloodfang (Tier 2). Would probably end up with RP gear in the end anyways. ^.-</p> <p>I doubt I can ever pay for one of those things if I even got the chance. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/petres-rl-existence-firgureprint#post-1313 Fri, 05 Sep 2008 05:59:26 +0000 Pipre 1313@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>So, I got an invite for purchase of a Figureprint back in July and quickly found all the pieces of my fishing set in order to get a print of him made in his fishing gear. I ran into a few little glitches: the blue overalls graphic wouldn't carry over in the pants slot like it does in-game, so I had to go kill a rare spawn in Tirisfall who happens to have pants with the same graphic. Then I had to find the right pose to make it look like he was in the act of casting, eventually deciding to go with "Staff attack".</p> <p>It turned out AMAZINGLY well! The guys at Figureprints far outdid my expectations. The figure is about 4" tall, encased in a thick plexiglass dome, with the World of Warcraft logo on the front of the base. The colors are vibrant, the modeling quite good. The part that impressed me was that they offset him from the center (which is quite abnormal from the shots I've seen) of the dome, then added a fishing line to the pole which appears to be in mid-flight. It's perfect and way more than I ever expected! Please check out the photos in my gallery, it's truly a work of art!</p> <p><a href="http://gallery.me.com/skwidspawn#100034/IMG_7666&#038;bgcolor=black" rel="nofollow">http://gallery.me.com/skwidspawn#100034/IMG_7666&#038;bgcolor=black</a> </p>
