Very, very impressive piece of sculpting, looks great
So, now to moulding.  :D and, of course, distribution  :laugh:

Truely Amazing - add me to the list of people that will want some casts when you do them.

That is so dam cool.  I wish I could sculpt like that.  I would definitely be making myself one then.

I've been making terrain for a tournament today and just making stuff like pill boxes and defence lines I super glue my fingers together and make a mess of all the measurements.

How people convert and sculpt models in this scale truley amazes me.

Stunning figure.

Would like great in Epic Siegemasters armies. Probably use stats for Baneblade with "counts as" option.

I doubt you will struggle finding takers if you are looking to cover your costs of casting this beauty.

Cheers

James

Ahoy Reaver,

What camera do you use?

And how's the molding process?

Hey Otter,
The camera is an HP Photosmart M517 5.2Mpixel. I don't know much about cameras, but it was cheap and seems to work okay.

The molding hasn't happened yet...
I've got some work stuff that I'll need to make molds for later this week, and I'll do the Macarius at the same time - lets me justify spending time and money on hobby stuff if I can combine it with work!
regards,
Reaver

Thanks for the info. I'm pondering a new camera, so others' experience with their camerae can help guide me.

Latest update: Made the mould over the weekend, and used the last of my resin casting the first tank.
More resin will arrive Thursday, so I should have a platoon or two by the weekend...

Here's a pic of the first cast:
regards,
Reaver
