I've made a start on Marceline. Just the legs so far but I'm quite pleased with her.View attachment 23665

Some of the shapes are starting to take form. The left leg has the right shape. Head needs some thought and work but has the genaral shape of what it should look like. Something seems to be wrong with the shape of the butt but i dont know what.
Right leg, torso, arms and a sword are still under construction.

Hello!
Nice try so far!
As far as butt is concerned: it is not wrong, it's maybe too big...
When I sculpt, I usually take two pieces of putty and give them the shape of teardrops (the point looking upwards). This way, when I "stick" the two buttocks in place, I've got only to smooth the pointed part and gently flatten (to my liking) the "round" area...
Not sure if I made myself clear, if not I'll try to post some pictures..
Cheers!
Sorry for the lack of photos but I'm too focused on the mini 
genuinely up there with the best I have done so far. By no means perfect and there is a looong way to go with it but the amount of improvement I am making simply by sculpting regularly over the last few months is really giving me a lift. Really liking what I have seen of everyone else so far.
@boardandy are you using metal tools? The finish on it looks allot like what I have been getting up until recently. Really nice symmetry so far.
@Pendix that is lookin kick ass so far. Loving the feeling of movement from the mini, not really familiar with Avatar so I can't help much with the scale
@abaddon76 looking awesome mate, musculature is bang on for me
@konkoktor decent progress mate, I always think the hard part for me is when I do a section to the point where I am happy then come back and look at it again and start second guessing myself. I have learnt more from making mistakes on these last few figures than I would have done by obsessing over one bit or another the way I used to.

Nice start all around guys!
Well, unfortunately with my projects in art and this play I'm doing, I don't have much free time this month, so I think I may have to withdraw from this sculpt-a-long. My idea was this: I had bought a 1/25th scale plastic Hummer model a while back, for the express purpose of making See-Through from Panty and Stocking:
So of course, it'd take a while to sculpt them both and Chuck (still haven't decided if I want to sculpt Briefs, too). Well, some other time. But hopefully I'll have a bit of downtime with the Christmas break from classes and I can do somethink nice for the month of Dismember..

Hi there.
Finally managed to spend a few hours on my sculpt.
I've added his facemask, forearms, few GS/FIMO details and the venom canister on his back.
Concerning his mask, it was supposed to resemble the one sported by BANE into a recent videogame (not sure if it's INJUSTICE...), but I'm not 100% satisfied with it: it looks more like a mexican luchador, but it'll do...
Also added some small-gage copper wire for his hands: with luck, I may be able to finish my creature in time!
Enjoy!

Not going to give away what I'm working on (though feel free to guess), but here's what I've got so far:

Cool!
I really like the pose. And is REALLY small... never been able to do something so small. :-(
And my guess is...XIII, from Final Fantasy VII!!!! That sort of red wolf/lion with a flame on the tip of its tail.

I guess I should be glad someone guessed it correctly already!
You're right, it's Red XIII. My people skills aren't up to snuff, and cartoons gave me an easy out.

Well, what gave you away is the pose (besides the canine appearance).
Meaning the pose is REALLy well done!!!
Can't wait to see what's next!!
For my part, I'm a complete disaster with animals: I've tried with a horse once, it turned out like a pony severely crippled after an accident with a double-decker. ;-)

Well, guess what the original mask was? Luchador Mask. Bane was also known as Antonio Diego.. Once again, vast departure from comics to movie/ other media..
Can't wait to see everything finished guys, even though I'm on the side lines I'm still rooting for yas!

@ Pendix: I think Korra is definitely GOOD! Proportions are perfect, and even her face looks fine to me: maybe only the hair need some touch-ups! Hope to see her finished soon.
@Chrispy: didin't know that. I must confess my knowledge about DC Universe is basically stuck at "The killing joke" comic novel (it has to be something like 20 years back, give or take).
@ Goblinho: that is so small I can't believe it!!! I'm sure his arms will be ok! And, of course, I like it!!!

Awesome. A finished project is always better than an unfinished one!
