Surely that raw sculpt cant be one of the Court PF's it looks way too small, looks 1:6 scale.

Yes, I saw that as well, but thought perhaps the sculptor wanted to try it out in a smaller scale to start with... or is that something sculptors don't do? I have no clue what process they undertake from concept to final sculpt.

Confirmed as Death the all taker concept exercise

It is probably a wax concept/trial.

I knew it!

Death's Siren looked so good in that video

I'm not sure if this has already been shown, but here's a close to final concept sketch from part 1.

Whomever came up with the concept for this piece is awesome! I just love it. The pose is great. There are aspects and small details that push this piece beyond what we typically see from SS.

I agree

I know we always complain about art direction but when the artists at SS are let loose to do their own thing with their own ideas and concepts we really see them shine.

I want to see more and more original work from them.

Especially some of Igo's ideas and Matt's goblin work.

Here was Mark's response from the beginning of this thread.

Tom and Dave ask me if I'd be interested in doing some further concept designs for this piece with some of Toms ideas. I did a bunch of different sketches of the character and overall design of the sculpt. We worked it down to this design and then they green lit it for sculpt.

I love how someone decided to put the one hand under water. Something as simple as that really is a genius move imo.

Yep. I imagine that SS's artist are often hamstrung by licencors, and that's something we should all keep in mind when talking about pieces. Their original stuff shows a ton of creative muscle.
