Do not use water, it messes up the putty, use (denatured) alcohol (75º or 96º) instead, it dissolves the putty and evaporate quickly. Depending on the surface you may also consider to use the Tamiya putty or the Gunze Sangyo dissolved putty, both can be thinned with denatured alcohol as well.

thank you!

We are getting old indeed :( Thank you :)

Marc, Alexandros thank you. For those who are interested I still have a few resin castings, price is 19 euros + S/H (bust + base, bamboo and foliage not included).

Thanks Mike.

Thanks. Nick thanks for the tips, I cannot use a standard oven, I use instead an heat gun which has a very rough temp indicator and a too hot value is what scorched the piece, at least I learnt how much to turn that temp regulator.

Hi there, hope you all are fine. This little entirely in Sculpey while the base and foliage in epoxy, feel free to comment as you prefer.

Really nicely done, who produces the kit ?

Thanks. Tim my first thought was to make a smaller base with a lot of little bats flying away but that's too much work and I'm too lazy... Twomoons, feel free to email me their address and I'll contact them for sure... Well, so the Hiketeia ritual was basically about granting a total...

Made of Magisculp in 1/5 scale as usual. The inspiring cover (on the background) is from an old issue of the Wonder Woman comic about the ancient Hiketeia Greek ritual.

Thanks but I'm not from the USA and Roy Hunt sadly passed away some time ago. If you are from the UK I think the best option for the Magicsculp is El Greco Miniatures, take a look here.

I mean using wet sandpaper, the gray one NOT the red or whatever just the gray, when you wet it it becomes malleable while water extends its abrasive life and above all that way there is no putty dust all over the workbench.

An huge lot lol anyway when sculpting that size parts like torso, pelvis, thighs are filled with uncured Sculpey, I mean a rough Sculpey modelling over the wire armature and a layer of Magicsculp over the uncured Sculpey.

Thanks, much appreciated. It's the "sand to death" technique... After placing a new layer of putty I smooth it as much as possible using a synthetic brush and alcohol and when the putty dries I sand it down to 1000 and even higher sandpaper using some water.

Hello again guys, long time since my last post here, that one is loosely inspired on THIS artwork by Joe Quinones. As usual in a smooth, rounded and stylized style which is the way I prefer, made of Magisculpt in 1/5 scale, hope you like it.

John your fine now?

The torso anatomy of the Zulu warrior looks superhero style to me.

Yes, it does remind that other sculpt but it wasnt an original concept by Tim Bruckner, it was based on the Frazetta Moon Maid painting. BTW love the way Ramon Arredondo sculpts the female forms.

There was a local store here with some of them on display, like the Knights of the Round Table and some pieces from the Lord of the Rings series. These pieces are second to none and the casting quality is top notch. If 120 euros for two 100m figures plus a setting is expensive so i guess that...
