Amazing...I'll be picking it up as soon as I can justify it..LOL. Planning on making Wen The Eternally Surprised with it. The PAs are spoiling me for Terry Practchett characters this year. Can I say how much I love you all?
Yea, the promos sold me as well!
And now female Budai... ;-) pleeeeeeeeease...
I speaking of the original Buddha! LOL Anyone can be a Buddhist!
@RAMwolff i bought it anyway ;-)
Thanks for the comments on the product, we worked quite hard. Just a bit of background on the figure, Budai: he's of Chinese origin, and is based on a Chan (Zen) monk who may have existed around the 10th century. There's a similar figure (Angida Arhat) from India who was one of the first disciples of the original Buddha. There are in fact many versions of this figure throughout Asia, all possessing a name that translates as 'Cloth Sack'. In Japan he's one of the Seven Lucky Gods. He's not a Buddha, but he is often considered a Bodhisattva, which are a group of semi-divine beings who serve as guides. Lothar posted an image of another Bodhisattva, who I believe is Guanyin.
A Bodhisattva would probably be the equivalent of Gandalf in Tolkein's literature.
@guruvar thanks for that... ;-)
Just to spread my inspiration of the Budai...
and...
for second...
hope you like it...
Imagine being called a cloth sack... Hmmmmm

Beautiful renders by the way!
As you wish... the two of them together ;-)
Lovely!
Beautiful renders. But the way, there are adjustment poses for the ears. Type in 'Earlobe' and you'll be able to see them. I may make an edit to the product to make them more visible.
