I myself use a "daylight" blue bulb in an architect lamp. Probably two of them would be better. Bye Jean-Philippe

Great work, great face on Ulli ! I would also be interested in how you did these sculptings (super sculpey ?)..... tell us more please. best regards Jean-Philippe

Hi Gary, As always your SBS is very intersesting and the result is great. :) I have a question. How do you make the crown stick to the blob. Do you use super glue or a little bit of magic sculp. I ask that because I have problems gluing cured Magic sculp. Thanks Bye and "bravo" again Jean-Philippe

Thanks Joe for the info. I need to try it out. Bye Jean-Philippe

This is really a beautiful painting. Does anyone know what he used for the metallic part and especially the helmet ? (Mister Metal ?) Bye Jean-Philippe

Salut quang, Désolé mais je me suis absenté quelques jours mais heureusement Gary a répondu pour moi et certainement mieux que je ne l'aurais fait. Je n'ai pas essayé de faire de grosse pièce et de la fraiser et poncer... J'essaie de travailler au maximum dans le frais. Désolé pour la réponse...

Hello everybody, As there willl be a great event in normandy for the 60th dday anniversary this week-end I would like to say this : Even if there has been some "tensions" between our presidents these past years (and not between the populations I hope), and even if it has been written in some of...

Thanks everybody, Quang I will do my best to answer you in english but if you don't understand my answers I will switch to french ;) .I'm not fluent in english as you are ! This my first try with super sculpey. I tried out fimo for the head of the arabic bust and I found it very pleasant to be...

It's the colour of the Super Sculpey. I did put a coat of white paint to see the details and remove it after. But the paint didn't go off properly leaving these spots... Bye JP

Hello everybody, here are a few pictures of my latest scratchbuilt bust. It's an arabic cavalryman from the 12th century. I hope you will like it... Bye Jean-Philippe

The most recent figures from him that I remeber for Border miniatures.... It was 5 or 6 years ago, nothing since. Bye

Hello leigh, I'm impressed by the precision of the sculpting. I myself really don't like sculpting "geometrics" things like these. I look forward to see the next steps. One question : how do you manage to glue (?) the copper wire on the putty ? Thanks Jean-Philippe

Thank you for your replies. I will have to find sculpey III wich won't be easy here in france. Maybe I can mix my super sculpey with fimo ? I switched from fimo to super sculpey because I think that fimo isn't hard enough to be sanded after baking.Bye Jean-Philippe

I used super sculpey recently for sculpting a head for a 65mm figure. What would you mix it with to have a better view of what you are doing because it's a little bit "transparent" and it's hard to see the detail of the surface without a coat of paint... Thanks. Jean-Philippe

Hello, The bust looks very good. I would myself insist a little bit more on the deep shadows on the red and yellows. Try to put green in your red to go further in the dark. Your shadow will be really deap and won't be a dark brown (green + red are complementary coulours). A line of shadow would...
