PROJECTS
« on: March 25, 2012, 16:28:44 »
Hey!
Here are a few pictures of my on-going projects. Some are still at an early stage, some more advanced, but this is all WIP.

Oswald Cobblepot, The Penguin:








Iron Man:





Captain America:







Superman (done, easy custom anyway!):



Customising the new style legs:



And my favourite project, crests for my Knights of the Golden Fleet. Just two for the moment. At this stage, I'm attaching the sculpted head to the helmet with Magic Sculpt. They'll need a lot of polishing and then painting. The dog's head will be white, the cow's head will be red or blue...













That's it!
Later tonight I will post some new knights in the KNIGHTS! thread and in the KNIGHTS OF TH GOLDEN FLEET thread.
Best,
Arnaud

That's great!

And even though it's a simple one, I love Superman :)

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

Arnaud, when you become masters of both transfers-printing & modelling/shaping(with what material?), nothing is impossible...as for the rest of us, we will have to pray for more Fi?ures series ;)

Hey!
Thanks for all the comments!
@Cheng: this flesh-colored material is called Super Sculpey. It's a polymer clay. You work it like clay, and you can bake it or boil it to harden the pieces. It also comes in gray (firm compound). You need to make a wire inner structure it is so soft, but sculpting is far easier than Magic Sculpt or Milliput!
You can, of course, make molds of the models, but those will be one-shots only.
Best,
A.

Hey!
I've been doing some painting. Here are Iron Man and Captain America. They're not finished yet of course, I must find a way to create Iron Man's "core" and I need to paint the "A" on Captain America's forehead.  :hmm:
