Ok, as I said in the thread asking for help on sculpting, this is going to be a diorama in 120mm-1/16th scale featuring a NCR veteran Ranger in combat with a Legionary of Ceasar's Legion, from the game 'Fallout: New Vegas'
Im sculpting it from scratch, so far this is what I have done.
The leg I have 'finished' still might need some work we will see. Also you can see my work on the armature. I am following the el greco miniatures tutorial, found it very helpful. Since I was not 100% sure of what I wanted the dio to look like I did not putty the joints, elbows shoulders, knees, etc, so I could change the pose on the fly, which I ended up doing. Originally this figure was just laying dead, I changed it to be more dynamic, raising himself up to fire off a last shot at his attacker.
So this is the armature/mannequin, and the finished leg. Also the feet are not glued onto the armature so I can take them off, sculpt them and put them right back onto the wire armature where they came from for a nice snug fit. for the folds and such I used the internet, searched for guys laying down in jeans... only found one or two workable pictures and a bit to much guy dong for my liking... but anyhow.
Ok, this is the work on the helmet and weapons (the weapons are for the Legionair, the pistol is for the ranger (figure above). The spear though, will be inside the Ranger's chest, as you can see by the hole and slot for it.
