WIP Lt. Gabrio Moretti, Culqualber 1941

[eppi]

The design didn't make itself, there is a skill in that, the printer is just a tool like a scalpel or clay shaper, I think it would be very difficult to make these in the traditional method.

Cheers Simon

Yep! just to remark that such a fine detail is due to both the proper 3d design and the machinery; last, but not least to the painting.

let's keep ... printing!

Hi mates!

added the boots and the right arm, pointing.
the left arm is the crucial part of this figure because it has to match the left hand alredy fixed on the arm of the second figure.

Thanks for watching!

Happy putty pushing

Cracking progress Eppi, the sleeve has some nice creases and I like the bold but soft creases on the boots. Brave move with the connecting arm, but I am sure you will make it so natural.

Cheers Simon

More excellent and very lifelike sculpting. Keep going!

Hi mates!

Thank you Nigel and Simon and all those who watch my model ...

I need a little help because after watching and watching the same thing it becomes difficult to be objective.
It's not finished but what do you think of left arm? mainly about proportions?

Thanks for watching and counselling!

Hi Eppi,
To me the left arm looks - from this angle, at least - a bit too thin compared to the right one.
Cheers

Agree there , certainly looks too thin and possibly too long in the lower arm

Look forward to seeing more

Have fun

Hi, yes I agree with the Dr and Kev, the arm needs fleshing out a little more and shorten it from the elbow to the wrist a little. A couple of shots of other angles would help to make this judgement. Other than that it's great.

Cheers Simon

 

[NigelR]

I would not have noticed anything if you had not pointed it out. But now you have, I agree with Simon that the length from the elbow to the fingers looks a bit too long. In particular, the hand is quite a long way from the jacket edge and the fingers look quite long....

 

[MalcC]

I wouldn't have noticed either, the area around the elbow doesn't look quite right, is the upper arm too long????
I'm confident you'll get it sorted and having it look perfect.

[eppi]

Thank you all, Mates!
I'm deeply reworking the left arm trying to absorb most of your hints, I did know that it might be fiddly to match the two figures, nevertheless I do believe that I'm hard-headed enough to get it!
Hope to show you soon something (better).

 

[Viking Bob]

Speechless, just Wow!

 

[Briggsy]

Looking forward to seeing the fix mate.

Cheers Simon
