Today again we will emerge ourselves in the fantastic
world of Scibor Monstrous Miniatures. Lately there is a great rush of
miniatures from Scibor fantasy department, one we will review today is not
newest but it still deserve our attention.
Big Fat Uncle is an awesome great demon and when I say
great I mean enormous, gigantic and massive. It measures over 80mm from the
base to the top, over 60 mm in diameter and comes in 3 main parts, so assembly
is very simple. What we get after gluing and trimming any miscasts is a very
unique model that is as much beautiful sculpture work as intentionally ugly.
Demon body is heavily mutated by warped and wicked
powers of Chaos. It gives an impression of sluggish behemoth covered in slime
and sores. In my mind it bears resemblance to Great Unclean One and plague
demons of Nurgle, off course not intently. You can easily use this miniature in
every Chaos/Demon army or collection, either fantasy or science fiction in
nature.
A main portion of this model is a massive body
containing mutilated torso, grotesque arms and legs, mutated head and really
disturbing back. From the top, its head is low almost at the level of shoulders
and its open mouth reach as far as to the middle of the chest. In the wide gap
we can clearly see rows of discussing teeth and meaty inside of the demons
mouth.
Above the mouth are oversized nostrils and sunken eyes
with large wrinkles under it. When we look on its face we can fell a very
really unease. T make matters more horrible head of the demon has one
additional element that is separate, a big, curly, long and fat larva like
tongue. You can almost see a toxic or corrosive saliva dripping from it. In
short its head is wonderfully ugly.
When we take a closer look to a demon torso we can
clearly see a disease, gluttony, mutations and chaos at work. Its fat and
muscles are warped and oversized, its whole outline looks like a giant blob. From
the shores and open wound a fluids are oozing, meet and intestines are pricing
the sick layer of skin and coming open, and from multiples gaps in demons body
human hands and heads are visible trying to reach out too free themselves or
grab someone who will soon share their damned fate.
Its back is in similar state of decay but an upper
part of its spine is clearly protruding from beneath rooting flesh. As this
isn’t enough at the lower end of demon back there is something like… a big anus
with fluids and partly dissolved human parts leaking from it, truly sickening
sight.
Big Fat Uncle legs and arms are also fat and decayed
and are mostly closely tight to demon body, We can see crocked toenails and
fingernails, one leg is almost totally invisible under the mas of oversized
body. Left hand is last part of this miniature and it has to be glued to the
rest of the demons body.
Scibor sculptured it in the process of gipping and
squishing a life from some poor old human soul. What is cool is that in my
opinion that person can be easily converted with parts form Warhammer (exchange
of head and arms) to get more Battle of 40k experience. Either way on that pour
persons face we can see a look of true despair and fear of someone that know
that there are worse fate than simply death.
The whole Big Fat Uncle set is amazing in its details,
seize and deliberate ugliness. In my opinion it is a really unique miniature
and good challenge for yours painting skills. We got loot of surface, different
“materials”(skin, bones, muscles, humans and other… demonic “stuff”). It is not cheap model, but in my opinion it is
totally worth the money. Simply amazing.
