Hello!

The first WIP for Fantasy Month is here!  For those unfamiliar with the Witcher series, Ciri (Cirilla Fiona Elen Riannon) is the sole princess of Cintra and foster daughter of the series' protagonist, Geralt of Rivia.  Her backstory is vast and complicated but in Witcher 3 Wild Hunt, it focuses on her unique elven bloodline which is prophesied to save the world from the White Frost (end of the world event).  Raised by Geralt and other members of the Wolf school, Ciri has a lot of experience with their craft.  And through the player's choices in Wild Hunt, Ciri can ultimately decide to follow in Geralt's footsteps to become a Witcher (I always choose this route because screw Emhyr).  Although the knowledge to conduct the Trial of Grasses mutation has been lost and no new fully fledged Witchers have been created in their current age, never say never.

Appearance wise, I stuck pretty close to the traditional Witcher apparel and their gear.  I know she has a dual core sword that is equally effective on humans and monsters in the game.  But the two swords and cat eyes are indispensable to the Witcher appearance.  And since we're committing to the full Witcher theme this month, Ciri should look the part don't you think?  Otherwise, you're just this guy.  That being said, I will provide options for her classical appearance as well as that cool looking ponytail braid.

Next we have Drizzt of Forgotten Realms fame, probably the most famous/beloved character within the setting.  He is notable for rejecting the traditionally evil practices of the drow race, escaping the Underdark and helping reclaim Mithral Hall for the dwarf king Bruenor Battlehammer (and much much more).  Honestly, I could write an entire essay on his exploits and a commentary on how original drow looked like 80's rock band members.  But I'll save that for later when I finish including his beloved companion Guenhwyvar.

Working on Nagash's appearance right now.  Will post that once it becomes more fleshed out.  Stay tuned!

I'm really looking forward to Drizzt and his "pet".

The funniest part is that since the backside of Ciri got uploaded after the picture of the backside of Drizzt, so for a split second i thought that was Drizzt without cape and i was like "uhhhhhh... wait..." 🤣👍💯💖 And i'm way too familiar with drizzt, his tiny panter statuette and the two scimitars. I wish i was not because i ended up never reading the trilogy *before* the '10s out of spite of how many people wanted to play him in the '90s and '00s just like people wanting to play Majere in the '90s and... basically people never wanting to make their character but always wanting to play somebody else's character. To this day i still wonder why people can't just... you know... make their own character, and instead have to latch onto other people's. And don't get me started on how many people want that stuff from their favourite setting is slammed into my setting because they like that and not the situation they are presented. *sigh* But... anyway. Great work there. Ciri might ... uh... need a bit of work on those shoulder and that pelvis but that's just part of the WIP, i really love how you went and sculpted that chainmail without many deformations, really well done. Love what you did with the belt too. In general, and as usual for your work i love all the intricate details you come up with. As for Drizzt i see you went with the 5e style, but also... no he still had hair like an '80s rock band, it's just that for him they went with Skidrow. 🤣👍💖💯 Once again great work, i guess the upper part of the cape and those gloves are part of the WIP process, so no big deal, Guenhwyvar's statuette on the belt is a nice touch but the original was more like a tiny rod with a stylized panther head and stylized panther anatomy. The description was mentioned only very few times in the books, and this is the only image i have ever found of it. <img src="https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/forgottenrealms/images/8/82/Guenhwyvar_AD%26D_TC.jpg"> Feel free to use it or ignore it. To be fair i have no clue how much at risk we are with WotC, but, eh. It's one of those details that usually finds no place in any official depiction and in any case when it is depicted it's something closely resembling a panther (like what you did). So i believe you are actually safer using the original style of the statuette.

I'm pledged as a consulter. So, I'm aware of limited poses but will these models come with a different pose for my tier than these? Curious, as something more "display friendly" would be sweet? BTW - love the work. Super detailed!

Nice Job man, love the idea to pursue the "Path" for Ciri. IMHO, I would not give her the Wolf School pendant, as she lost Vesemir's during the fight with the Crones (but hey, if you are making the diorama of the fight as you mentioned could be a nice scene making her taking it back). In any case I would probably left her with the Cat School pendant attached to the belt. Absolutely loving the armor, nice job! The sword: that is tough, I love your point of giving the 2 swords buuuuuut I would keep at least for the silver sword the shape of her Zirael sword with the runes on the blade, sice Geralt gives that sword to her as a gift in the best finale of the third game, but that is a little bit of Bias to me, since i really love that sword (exept Aerondight, that is my true love ahah). BTW, all are coming out wonderful, good Job!

Thanks! 👍 Haha, yeah you're right, rearranged the order. Yeah, I'll make minor adjustments to Ciri and Drizzt along the way. Thanks for the reference image!

3DArtGuy

Thanks! 👍 Oh yeah, you're totally right, she did lose the pendant in that fight. That gives me some ideas. Yeah, I'll adjust her silver sword accordingly.

Wow, awesome! 🔥🔥🔥 I wonder how you will cut Ciri, so we can reach what's underneath the see-through chainmail with the paintbrush 😋
