EB 2

I decided to go all out on this conversion. The figure was re-animated to really lean forward and to the side. Metal wire was used to simulate the arm positions. The right arm was animated at all its joints. I avoid the straight arm pose as it is always boring, stiff and looks unnatural. Hands were added to the ends. In a series of previous sculpting exercises several years back, I had resculpted several right hands to grip various swords. A suitable right hand was selected for this piece.

I removed the strange "shark-tooth" edging on the pantherskin shabraque. All my references indicate that the edging was scalloped cloth lacing and I have started to resculpt this feature.
