I guess there are Edinites yet that could quickly become quite pricey Any ideas on 6mm skulls anyone? I need to start building some piles for the Worlds Eaters. |

"where does he get all those wonderful toys?" You never cease to amaze me Apoc. That could be cool. Let me see what else I can do without having to take up your time with making moulds. You have so many things that I would like moulded... |

I think at 6mm you could make decent enough skulls if you make small balls of GS and poke them with a pin for eyes and nostrils. Pinch the bottom with a pair of tweezers to create the teeth and then just press/cut-in the teeth themselves with a sharp knife. Have a look at the Edenite jump troops in their thread to get an idea of scale. i actually find Milliput great for this type of work as it's easier to manipulate as you don't push things too much out of shape when you make the next detail. |

That's a fine idea Dobbsy. I think I may give it a go. |

If you really want to get technical you could lightly press the slight divot either side of the skull/beside the eye sockets too for more detail. |

You could also look at microworld games undead skeletons and chop all the heads off

I've done bases for my Khorne army in a way similar to Apoc's Tower of skulls. It is a very simple and quick method. Make a blob of green stuff where you want the skull pile. Take a piece of plastic tube and sharpen the edge of the tube by "drilling" it with a hobby knife. The tube should be roughly the size you want the skull (Ie somewhere between 1 and 2 mm.) Then press the tube into your greenstuff so that eaych skull touches one another. Using a needle you can then poke holes for the eyes and nose. A bit of jiggelig with a rounded object or sculpting tool can give a bit more skull shape. Fairly quick to do once you get the hang of it. |
