[Archive] Ere we go! Ere we go!

Ami Fluff:

Sorry sorry if this isn’t the right place for this.

Anywho, I just got back from my local hobby store, armed with some dwarf warriors, some chaos marauders, a brand new sculpting tool, and some green stuff.

I’m getting ready to assemble my very first chaos dwarf. Wish me luck. <3

Viskar Zhragoth:

Good Luck! Take your time on the sculpting, and remember to use water to make sure the tool doesn’

Sojourn:

we also use a lip balm of some sort on the tools (and our fingers) to prevent the sticking. :slight_smile:

cornixt:

Saliva works well, but try not to eat the greenstuff.

Ami Fluff:

Okays. I’m taking a break while I’m waiting for the green stuff to dry. Here’s my first few pictures.





DARKTROOPER:

excellent first try…how good are you at sculpting GS because trust, even your bad now making CD will dramatically improve your skills…

:hat off

Ami Fluff:

What’s a GS?

This is pretty much the first guy I’ve tried to scuplt in, well, years.

GS = green stuff

somebody bites their fingernails!

Good work! Keep it up, and then get to painting hehe.

Ami Fluff:

Hee, you caught me. I bite the stuffing out of my nails. I’ve been doing it since I was like 10, and have been trying to kick the habbit, but to not avail.

Hmm… after looking at my model, I think I wanna do the whiskers in a different way.

TheVoice:

I like the lighting, those are some molten-looking fingers you have there in the first pic, as if the warrior were being sculpted by Hashut himself!

Willmark:

Great start, but this looks like an army blog, so I’m moving it to that section.

Ami Fluff:

Okay. Warrior one is done. :slight_smile:









Also, sorry 'bout putting this thread in the wrong spot.

Knight Of Awsome:

My first reaction was, wooh. I love the combination of the bits that you used… could you tell me what bits you used?:cheers

Ami Fluff:

Fairly straightforward. The legs and torso are dwarf warrior bits. The scale armor is green stuff. Used the method of a very handy video set I found here. ^^ <3 The arms, shield and shoulder pad are plastic marauder bits. The mask is one of the marauder shoulder pads. The beard is greenstuff as well. ^^

Ah thanks, accept my two slaves. but i just added up the totals for all the parts and found the total of it all came to more than $4.00 CAN for one dwarf... thats going to put a whole in my pocket... but im going to try and find a cheaper way... that looks cooler than my 2.81 CAN dwarfs...

Ami Fluff:

Thank you kindly. <3

Okays, something a little bit more complicated: BEHOLD! Ami’s first chaos dwarf lord. <3







bandnerd1892:

Looks great!! Superb stuff! One little thing, can you get another picture of the lord from the front view. The shadow/lighting makes it very difficult to depict the, what look to be, extraordinary detail. Thanks! Keep up the good work!

nerd :stuck_out_tongue:

furrie:

the hat looks kinda weird, its probably the drum on the sides of the hat.

Hashut’s Blessing:

Wow… Excellent GS (GreenStuff) skills… Almost made me cry as I seem to be incompetent at using it to sculpt…

Also, that is one damned big hat :stuck_out_tongue: I like the longer weapon handle with that hammerhead and the use of the half-cape particularly… Keep up the good work, start painting (it’ll help ya stop biting :wink: ) and get the pics up ASAP!

Ami Fluff:

Well, I’m not sure I like the hat, I"m considering trying again on that. For one thing, the symbol on the middle of it was suppose to be a flame, but it came out looking awfully… …phallic? :XD
