Hi
As you may have noticed ive been enjoying cutting up plasticard and then sticking it back together again rather a lot over the last few days. So now ive decided to try something different – learning to sculpt 6mm infantry. My first two attempts can be seen bellow, i chose these two due to the lack of defined legs – eg starting with something easy.  Im rather pleased with the one in the hood, however the guy in the pointy hat looks like an attempt at a Warmaster chaos dwarf that’s gone wrong. For reference, these guys are sitting on 4.5mm discs, and GW epic inf come on 6mm bases, which is why the size looks off.

Poor image quality again...but on my screen at least the pic above shows the model at 11x actual size :p
I cant even begin to image how areas like the faces of the epic imperial guard models were sculpted :O ...Any one able to offer advice at sculpting on this scale? Or link me to any good tutorials?

I recommend picking up some 'ProCreate'. It holds detail much better than Green Stuff, and holds finer details too.

All your work is extremely talented.

I would like for you to spend some time on moulding so that other like me can start to enjoy your work on our own tables...

:agree:
