Sculpting a new new Squig/ball trophy

[Videador]

His guyz!
Here is one of many trophies that I am sculpting. The idea is to make a pack of different trophies (+TDs, +Casualties,…).
On this one, a skeleton hand with a ball and a glove. It has 2 metal plates where you can paint the tournament’s name and on the other the award (+TDs, + Casualties,..) .
It is only a WIP. I want to put spikes on the ball; more detail on the glove and of course a nice base.

What do you think? more ideas for trophies?

Awesome!

The sculpting looks great, but the football is a little small.

[Darkson]

Looks good.

I like the idea of a hand (not skeletal) holding aloft a helmet by the facemask.

Like this, but with more "blood bowl" (spikes etc).

Super cool!

Love it...

Great idea!
I think an ork hand and the helmet as you said with spikes and a metal jaw could work

Yeah ;p , The problem is the weight... A properly size ball will be to big and heavy

I thought about that after I posted. It really does look good.

[Pedda]

Amazing!

[Hegel]

Very nice.

If a bigger football proves to be too heavy then put it on a wider base, maybe ?

[Podfrey]

Superb....!!

I always wanted to see the NAF provide a "best painted" trophy like they do a "tournament champion" as it encourages people to improve and makes a better visual spectacle for all.

Perhaps you could do one (hand holding a paintbrush?) and sell it to them?? (hopefully Beppe will be receptive to the idea)

Good idea and looking nice.... !

The arm is awesome but You should perhaps consider removing the ball or make it bigger.

to compare :


I have no notion in sculpting, I imagine that the ball is crucial to make it stands right.

You will see on the new photo the size of the big trophy. To keep the balance and a regular total weight I can´t do a bigger ball
On the other hand I will make a similar one smaller. On that one I will be able to make a realistic ball-hand size.

I am thinking on more details.
I didn´t sculpt anything on the back of the base. The idea is to put the sponsors of the tournament/league there. Is a very good chance to get more sponsoring if you a put the logo of the company on a physical space.
This base will be able for future trophies too.
