I really don't like the sculpt. The accessories are fine, but I find Fu Manchu himself rather crudely detailed. The hair in particular looks pretty bad, especially for a 54mm model.

This has to be the first model in the range that I find less than spectacular. And possibly the first from Gregory Clavilier that I'm not fond of. Oh well.

I'm going to have to agree with that. I like simplyfied minis, but this is not up to your standard.

Ouch, thats quite horrible, like some ones been fiddling with the sculpey for kicks while drinking beer. First miniature that I dont like from the range. But that happens with even the best of miniature companies. Hope the next release will be better! :)

Not a fan of that particular model either. I like some of the range but generally am not interested in that scale at all :?

I agree, but I can see why they did it like that. I mean, the real Dragon masks can be sorta crude and have beards and hair that look like less than real. In other words, I'm pretty sure that the crudeness of the sculpt is intentional and not a mistake as such. Still, that said, my least favourite sculpt of the line.
