Just finished this guy the other night. I had to rebuild him from scratch, so I tweaked the design a little bit. The first one was made from WED clay, when I sealed it with shellac it didn't work very well and the sculpt cracked. I think crystal clear works better for sealing WED clay as I used it on the other two busts and they didn't crack. He's sculpted from regular Super Sculpey, over a very basic wire armature. I boiled the Sculpey in a large pan to cure it instead of baking it as this method really produces a lot less cracks and the heat is more evenly distributed across the surface plus it cools down quicker in the water. The fin was made after I cured the Sculpey. It's made from milliput a two part epoxy that bonds very well with Sculpey and it's a lot tougher and is ideal for delicate details. Hope you like him and thanks for looking. |
I've had the pleasure of working in the video games industry since 2000 for many amazing companies such as Nintendo, Microsoft, BBC, Amazon, Surface Digital, and many others. I've spent the past 24 years providing original art based solutions for the entertainment industry. During this time my work has covered all areas of Conceptual Design, Production Art and Art Direction ranging in style and subject matter from heavily stylized to realistic aesthetics and everything in-between.
