Very nice job, children's heads are notoriously hard to make, and you nailed it even on the first try!

Thanks alot guys! I'm 18, now I can buy a slew of formerly illegal items and learn how to drive ;)

Thanks alot for the kind words everyone. The scholarship is a general arts one, but as for colleges I think I want to attend University of Michigan or the University of Southern California. I really want to do film FX work and USC is a very good place for that.

I always jumped every time one of those charged in the game... Looks very good so far, I'll enjoy seeing the metal frame of it come together.

That's impossible, it's too perfect ;)

I submitted these pictures as part of a scholarship application. Everything here was done in the past six months or so with the exception of the diorama at the end.

Yea, I was with you and Bill at MMSI. It's too bad you can't go this year, but maybe I'll run into you at SCAHMS if I go. I really hope you're able to get the samurai done, it's a really cool idea and a well excecuted one. Good luck!

Nice work, I remember it well. Will you be in Chicago again this year?

The base is looking very good. It'll be nice to meet you in Chicago this year :)

Here's a piece I've been working on for the past week. She still needs ears, and I'm fixing up the hair but a majority of it is shaped out. I used Chavant NSP Medium clay. I wanted to be able to do an SBS for this one but unfortunately I have to finish two more of these heads by the end of...

His work is amazing, and he's a really nice guy. I emailed him once asking similar questions and he was very helpful.

Good work, I like the way his face is coming out.

Ok guys, I think I'm going to try to basically make this head over. I like this one but I want to start another that's a little cleaner and built to cast from the start, so I have a strong portfolio piece to cart around. With this in mind, I think I'll try fully documenting it and putting up a...

Chavant is a plasticene, it's sort of a waxy clay that never dries. To get a permanent copy you'd need to take a mold off of it. However it remains pretty tough at room temperature and should be heated before aplication to soften it up. It can also be cast, I used a harder grade clay to cast the...

Your work never ceases to amaze me.

Thanks alot Gary and John. Sadly, after doing this I don't have the eyes for miniatures, and I just like to work large now :o My more recent pieces have actually been pretty close to the models. Several friends were able to guess who this was unprompted, and the girl herself thought it...

Here's a new head I'm coming to a close on. It is made of Chavant NSP Medium clay, and it's modeled off of a friend. Though I was able to rough it out in a week or so, I was really busy over the summer and made some tweaks here and there when I had the time for two months. Any comments much...

Try looking at Anakin's scar from Star Wars: Episode III, that sounds similar to what your describing and quite possibly the coolest scar in a motion picture.

HO for railroads is 1:87 scale. HO:OO is a common British armor scale that equates to 20mm or 1/76. True 1/72 scale figures are around 23mm or so, but most manufacturers of the soft plastic figures go more to about 25.

Really neat idea, what era will he be from?
