Iv only been sculpting for a couple of weeks so thought it was about time to try some thing a bit ambitious.



SO what do you lovely people with smashing hair think? Advice would be good.

the arms are supposed to be a bit long so it looks more animal like. Its gonna have hair like the forge world one ish but more alive! its alive mwuhaha and all that. there are gonna be some tentacles comeing from the uh crotch bit and im toying with the idea of the ones coming out the back interwining to make a tail altho it could just look like a string of fish poo lol the outstretched arm will have a beconing hand and the other will have maybe a scalple in it and in stead of crab claws im going to use old scalple blades (blunt them first 0_0)

I am not a big fan of Genitalia on Miniatures... it looks so wrong and just nasty...

The Sculpt has some Proportional problems... the overall impression is quite wooden... Use more reference from real life Anatomy... there is this really good book at Amazon... Monster Workshop Book... From a french guy... Bruno something... you could check this out, it is quite cheap...

its supposed to be more of a big gash which starts at the bottom of the back and goes round to bottom of stomach, its more inspired by fetish clothing than genitalia.
which bits are not preportioned right? the head is smaller because as stuff gets bigger the head doesnt get bigger in preportion to the body mass, or so drawing comic book books have told me. thanx fr the heads up on the monster book

the fore arm looks a little to big to me. And I\'m thinking that the head is a little to small, maybe it\'s the pose and the angle of the picture. As for the comic proportion, the average male is 6 and half heads tall, with a superhero being in the range of 8 and 3/4 heads tall (How to Draw the Marvel Way). Not to sure how that translates into sculpting but whatever floats your boat.
As for the pelvis area, ahhhh, I\'m not to sure about that. If it clothing, add some definition to it to show that it is clothing, buckles and what nots. If genital, I\'m not sure if I keep it, looks odd to me. But then again, all this is just my two cents, and the sculpt is yours, so keep it up, and go if whatever you\'d like.

ok iv filed the fore arm down a bit and added a buckle to the strap round the leg to see how it goes down, the belt round the wasit is made from skin peeled back from round the sides. there supposed to be strips of skin round the muscle but i quite like the buckles too, keeping with the bondage/fetish theme which i think suits somthing as disturbing as a keeper of secrets. i messured the head on it and its about 7 and a half heads tall so i think it was just the photo making it look small. the mask is kinda half masqurade mask
to reflect the role in halequin troops great enemy, i can imagine slaanesh doing it just to mock them. as always your crit and comments are very welcome, its been great so far, there really helpful to raise my game as a scultper thanx

Either I missunderstood you or your very talented. If you have only been sculpting two weeks that is very good. Sure there are proportion problems, but honestly, it\'s a demon so who cares. The buckles and stitching are fantastic. I\'m not overly fond of the muscle through the skin look even though it is executed well. I would recommend you get some apoxie sculpt. You could make the understructure thinner. It seems slightly too big, muscled for my taste. I think of Slaanesh as thin and tone creatures, not hulking khorne brutes.

I only say this because with sculpty as the base it needs to be thick for strength. Apoxie sculpt can be very thin and yet super strong. Other than that it is fantastic work and I look forward to more! :D

ok i decided that because keeper of secrets take whatever shape they feel fitting this one needed butterfly wings made up of blades, scalple blades no less so i wouldnt mess if i were you, ohh no. sooooooo what do you fantastic people who i might add look fabulous today ( is it working?) think?
does this count as highjacking the forum? three posts too many? if it is im terribly sorry but the keeper of secrets made me do it, you try saying no!
p.s. i dropped this one too and broke its horn off for christ sake someone commit me dribble dribble dribble:possessed:

I love it. Seem more like a daemon prince, or princess but I love it either way. Did you cast the one not in green for symetrey? Keep going I\'d love to see the finished product.

Loving it...tidy up those leather straps a bit should be possible with a nice sharp knife and a little care....
like the wing Idea too makes perfect sense that a keeper would want it\'s wings to be another form of pain causing...kee iit up...

Fingers are tough, especialy if you leave them separated from one another. Your keeper looks large so I would gess some paper clip wire would be thin enough for an armature. Drill and glue the wire, then sculpt the base like you did the muscle, then the detail. If they will be connected roll a few sausage shapes. Stick them where you want the fingers. When they set blend the finger detail over them and into each gully between the fingers. I\'d go with the wire method unless you plan to cast it.
