Thank you. It's very kind of you to write.



Here's more stuff:


A reporter figure in 1:56 scale

With an Infinity miniature for comparison:

A sketch in Super Sculpey Firm. Experiment with a more graphical sort of representation.

 

[Demihuman]

That's darn good!

Thank you very much. That's very nice to read.


Here's another practice head.

Very nice collection of heads Hellbeard

Thanks. They're fun to make also I feel they're helping me improve.

Here's another head:

The larger study really helped get the form better.

With the rest.

Very good indeed, for an extreme test pick a celebrity face then see if people can guess who it is. ( I'm still trying to perfect this one)

 

[Demihuman]

How about some bald dudes?



Also still waiting for the kickstarter

I'll try but I don't know think I have that level of ability. It'll be a good exercise.

How about some bald dudes?

The last guy is bald with a beret!

RE: crowdfunding, I've got a couple of figures sent off to a casting service to have a test run. If they turn out good I'll get a small run of some of my more recent sculpts cast. Then, I'm not sure exactly what but maybe a modest crowd-funding campaign?

Hey I have some faces that you could practise sculpting on this post!

Better and better, I like the large scale guy with the beret.

Thank you! I think I'll make a figure to go with the head.

Outstanding work man. Can't wait to see more.

Damn impressive work

Thanks guys.

A new figure in 1:56 scale. Just sort of freestyled it.

Nice work, wish I had time to do some sculpting and get some small skills in that also. Nice to come too your pages too look thou, inspiration in your progress.

Thank you! If you want to get going you don't need too much time. Just put in an hour or so for every session. After the putty cures you can take as much time between sessions as you want. If you use a heat curing polymer clay like FIMO or Super Sculpey you can put in as little time as you want for each session.


Some improvements:

 

[Digganob]

Very nice as usual Hell, when you sculpt it do you focus all your attention on one area like a shoe or the pants or do you move around? Always great to see your stuff and you in action.

Thank you. I do one part at a time. I use ProCreate by KraftMark which is like Green Stuff: bi-componental epoxy putty so I mix some up, work on a thing and let it cure before doing the next thing.

 

[Hellbeard]

Some more.

Yet another 1:56 scale practice head for the 1:56 practice head throne.


Note that it’s a little bit oversized because I was trying to exaggerate some features which turned out— exaggerated.


I think I might try for this guy again and push the cartoony style I'm aiming for even more; maybe try to keep it a little bit closer to the true-scale.
