After a bit of a search on good old evil bay I came across this gem from a studio located in the US that "specialize" in conversion work.

Well...well...what can you say? specialize in something else! Thought it may be a one off but the rest of the shop reflects the creative spirit involved!

There seems to be a lot of people on Ebay that have “exaggerated” skills.
I mean my god have seen the amount of “pro painted” work that looks like someone just ate some paint then had the runs all over their models.

Funny thing is, if that Jabba set hadn't bene mangled, he'd have probablyl been able to get more money for it than he's asking.

After reviewing his other work and the simple fact he has other commissions and has had commissions I've reached the conclusion that he is in fact a genius at marketing. Or perhaps he's a wizard.
I could not imagine ever putting such a thing up in public space with a price tag at all. it bewilders me.
The use of lego flames on one of his "display piece" bases is just perfectly in theme with his style and that says enough.
I wonder roughly what this models amount would truly be (kit wise I mean) jabba, what looks to be the left arm of an action hero 3 defiler turrents......

It's old video game slang from the team fortress era, was also pretty popular in the tribes era which followed. The tribes 2 beta even had a kill line for turrets something like "<player> has come down with turrent syndrome" which funnily enough didn't make it to retail

the slaanesh greater daemon made me cringe.. start with a forge world greater daemon ($140), then cover it rough sculpted green stuff..
How can "white metal studios" make a good model? Start with a great model!

No! Start with three good models, glue them together, and carve them back until it fits on a base...

It's a disturbance in the space/time continuim where black people in baggy pants can dance and dance and dance.
For unknown reasons, the 'Hammer Time Anomoly' is unable to be percieved by white people.
Also, it is not to be confused with the recently discovered 'Potty Time'. Which has a similuar jingle.

The sad thing is the description he gave is something of a small essay but this is quite scary, the guy seriously believes he has created a work of art here...

I can't even tell what that thing is supposed to be. It just looks like a pile of stuff. I might as well grab a handful of bitz off my desk, dribble glue over the pile to make 'em stick together, and paint that.
