Qwik 54mm: First driver is built!


Here's my first driver. Not too bad, methinks. When I do greenstuff work, I usually count on my painting skill to hide my junior sculpting skills. Here you can see how I do my boots; I just do the tops and let the original sculpt do the rest of the work (now you can see why I like the Bronzeage sculpts.) The greenstuff on the toe of the boots is meant to represent steel tips.

I need to pick up primer first, but I think I'm going to try to get this figure painted up while I work on the others; I want to set her on the work bench to inspire my other creations.

  2. Another stunning works!

    I like it so much, if I can move an objection maybe the mask should have some little hole, after all is a filter, so should not be enclosed.

    IMHO of course :D

  3. Yes- good point- I actually had planned on having a hose come from the mask and into a tank on her back; I just plum forgot! That's what I get for not sketching things out.

    Oh well, I can still either carefully drill a few holes or just paint them on. Or perhaps it is her own version of sadism to not be able to breath during the game?

    :)

  4. Not breathing for hundred stones?!
    Interesting ;-)

    Nice progress so far, really really like it.

    My favorite so far is the Strapping Man, has a very nice Brom feeling

  5. Really sexy driver! Your greenstuff work is quite respectable. Where do you get your dolls to build up your figures?

  6. I get the dolls from www.bronzeagemin.com.

    They have a range of 32mm and 54mm "generic" figures.
