More WW2 Germans again.....

[zyclyon]

Hi Luca,

the putty is very similar to Magic Sculpt. It's very soft when freshly kneaded and dries rock hard like A+B when cured. I would recommend Tamiya putty if you intend to create flags waving in the wind as they are very strong. They are however too hard (at least for me) for me to achieve the soft effects that I want on such a small scale. I don't like to work with water as it need a longer time for the putty to firm up if you mush it up.

Dave, it's actually quite easy if you invest some time to practice. I hope that this will provide you a good primer to start your own sculpting adventure too!

cheers,

Calvin

Calvin,
The folds on the pants look great so far.
Very realistic! Do you work from photos?
Looking forward to see more in-progress
images soon!

Hi Taesung,

I used to work from photos but it's from the mirror. I glad that you found them convincing considering that you're master of such

Hi folks,

In the meantime, here's my progress on the Another German Figure.
