We Are Human

[Larsen E. Whipsnade]

My next project, We Are Human, new by Jeff Shiu based on a WW1 German propaganda poster.


Sculpting is great, detail is amazing, casting is first rate, only one very small void which can easily be filled. Quite a bit of prep work is required before you can begin to prime. I prepped one figure and left the other as it comes out of the box so you can see what's required.

Those gates are massive…I can only imagine the prep..good luck with it..

Thanks and you're right about the gates, grasshopper. I'm fortunate in that for Christmas 2 years ago my wife gave me this



the tear-ass mother-of-all-Dremel tools.

Hi Rick

Great to see you with another project , rather nice subject matter as well

Apart from the gates casting looks good

I’ve found a tiny thing from Dspiae from Tyrell Models that works well for me, but am limited by severe reactions to resin dust that affects eyes and lungs. So I have to work smaller gates…but this one looks good once past the clean up

Hi Kev,
The tear-ass Dremel works a lot better than what I used before I had it...

The big Dremel does kick up a lot of dust. I always wear a mask when I'm using it.

You think thems big plugs..... try Verlinden, I swear you have an equal amount of waste resin as the actual figures weighs .



Nice project Rick, and a bit of colour aswel.

Almost there.. a little more attention to highlights and shadows and then some dulling spray and the poilu will be finished then on to the German soldier...

Lots of character in that Poilu.
Looking forward to more progress posts and then seeing the finished project.
