Description Snout Spout is part of He-man and the masters of the universe! What can be a better challenge than painting a robot elephant? I know... a robot elephant firefighter of course! I had a blast painting Snout Spout. It was a very complex piece to get everything to work well with the mood but I'm so happy I stuck to it and didn't stray from my original idea. I hope you guys dig it and if you got any questions just ask away. Enjoy!

THis is one hot imagery of Snout Spout! He's one of the more underrated Masters of the Universe characters!

I won't deny that I thought that was Flame Mammoth at first. That's how good this is!

One of my favorite Heroic Warriors has been given the gift of your painterly touch. Faved for an excellent job. I especially like the light reflecting off the metal snout.

Thanks! Snout Spout is very awesome as a character tho he is a strange concept. How is your She-Ra going btw?

This is amazing! I love all of it, but what I like the best is the water contained in the sections where the tusks would be. That's awesome.

MattiasFahlberg In reply to darthpaul99 [2011-08-29 20:04:25 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I'm so happy you noticed that detail. For me it was the first thing I decided to have on him since he is supposed to put out fires. So water filled turbines was the way to go and to power the flow of water.

MattiasFahlberg In reply to joker5063 [2011-08-26 12:27:01 +0000 UTC]

Thanks pal! He is very obscure and kinda gimmick like. I mean just one of those characters that works better as a toy than an important character. Anyway I'm happy you like it.

mikesblender [2011-08-26 00:57:33 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, I never even knew about this character before. He-man and masters of the universe? Really? Was he good or bad?
Anyway regardless of that, this is awesome and I love it.

I always hated this character, but you work on him is awesome. Love the water/bubble effect on the face(tanks).

You and many others I belive. I mean common a robotic elephant firefighter... Who came up with that idea? So the whole concept is very strange from the start so I knew I could go crazy with him. I mean I couldn't do anything to make it worse, right?

bob-the-odd In reply to MattiasFahlberg [2011-08-26 19:55:53 +0000 UTC]

Well, if it is possible, you have made him just a little bit cool. Which is hard to do when you are starting off with such a lame character.

Thank you! The backlight was one of those final things I added and once I did I knew that it was the look I was going for.
