Samurai Azuchi Momoyama period

[myouchin]

Hello PF,
I'll show person of my country　to everyone. This guy was tougher than I expected. I spent a lot of time. But finally he was finished so I am relieved.
I used polymer clay(super sculpey FIRM+Premo) and epoxy putty.

Thank you for watching,珍重珍重。

That´s a very interesting figure. If it will be a commercial one, I would take one for me and some for my shop

Great sculpt. The helmet bowl will looks better if it is a bit shorter, wider and more round at the top.

Thanks again for the comment Yellowcat.
I made urinari kabuto by referring to Masataka Sato's photo book. He is Japanese Armor repairer.
In his book urinari is displayed as armament of the Azuchi Momoyama period end.

Superb work ! I like the pose too.

Thanks for the nice words, Djoubri M.

You’re a gifted artist. This is excellent work. I’m not into samurai etc, but this could almost convert me. My compliments.

Great... and I speak as someone who is just now reviving a 45 year-old mounted samurai scratchbuild.

The lacing has been driving me mad (coming around to a method of mass producing individual 'lames' which I can then build into the gessan and sode).
