Hey there, sorry if this has been already posted and might be old news...
Actually Laz posted some info about him sculpting the Skeksis over at Sideshow Freaks, anyway, @ ComicCon Mindstyle had this awesome pieces on display.
First Jen and Kira:





And then a Skeksis, is it Chamberlain?

I'm not sure what scale they are,
I'm thinking that the Gelflings are about 1:4 scale
and Skeksis about 1:6 maybe?
Lazlo sculped him, so he might have the answer to that! :big_grin:

Jen & Kira's costumes are fantastic, I don't think their faces are right at all, but again, the artistry is a masterwork.

Love the Gelflings! Not sure about their size since I wasn't involved.
But the Skeksis is about 1:4 scale.

It's the noses. Same with the manga. They have people noses instead of gelfling noses. The faces in general look a little too people like. It's like they got so close with the other details and then forgot the most important part - their faces. :scary:

Laszlo, I wish you would create the definitive Kira, wings and all. Only you could do justice to her character.

Thank you for your confidence Jaime!
Well, I would love to sculpt this scene. It's one of those 'magic' moments in the movie.
