Benjiman:

Right at the risk of sounding horrendously idiotic I need some help, I’m new to the site, and new to Chaos Dwarf’s in the sense that i’ve only made four warriors… I don’t like what i’ve made since the beards have turned out all wrong and they just look like dwarf’s with chaos insignia and helms :S in other words, they look awful. If anyone, anyone at all has got any tips of the trade, please feel free to pummel me with it, i accept that there will be a few snide comments haha, but to be expected for someone crying out for help.

Thanks All

Hi welcome to the site i dont think you’ll get many snide comments here.I think not many of us have a need to feel superior by belittling others.:hat

If you post pics people can see whats going wrongwith your beardsbut it may just be easier for you to watch xanders vids

And keep trying. I didn’t plan my CD much in detail, I just started sculpting and eventually liked (most of) the results in the end. ^^

i feel your pain brother. start off simple. dont try doing the crazy creative ornamental beards until you really have the hang of everything. and, xander’s videos of course.

I just studied various pics, was inspired by other people’s great work, tried it out for myself and your unique style will come through eventually

A bit rich from someone who has only been collecting CDs since Conflict North! :stuck_out_tongue:
