New project time, I’ve decided to go back to the Hobbit range. I love the Hobbit range and there are some fantastic sculpts. This is an interesting box set. It costs £30 and you get Beorn in man and bear form. The man sculpt is great. It’s a cool, relaxed pose and the detail is fantastic. The bear however is terrible and doesn’t look like Beorn from the films. I’ve actually resculpted some of the facial fur to make the head a rounder shape and more film accurate. I’m pretty happy with it now.

Glad to see your back on a hobbit project can't wait to see it painted.

Bear looks good to me . Is that a current box set ?
The bear form needs to be WAY bulkier.
Really looking forward to how these turn out. Your hobbit stuff is my favorite of your work. I am currently working through the dwarfs from the escape from goblin town set using your guides, so many thanks for those. I am 7 dwarves in so far and very happy with your they're turning out!
Glad to see you are back to the Hobbit! I couldn't agree more about the bear, was quite dissapointed with it. Cant wait to see how your modifications look when it is all painted!
