Raumschnecken Hauptmann (pronounced "roumshnekken houptmann")
It's one of my first sculpts, 40mm tall (without base, wich is 3mm). The material I used is just plain FIMO (sort of epoxy, you bake in the oven for hardening), No smoothing was done at this point, as well as it got a pretty lack of detail, wich will be fixed further with greenstuff (fimo is terrible for sculpting detail, but easy to work with because it doesn't stick to your fingers all the time, it isn't that toxic, and you don't need to mess around with keeping it all wet) The "Raumschnecken" (space snails, freely translated) are a first concept for a range of Miniatures, that will come along with the "Spacepunk" skirmirsh rules. They are a species of mutated (what else) snails, wich seek revenge among the evil presence, that poisoned their Homeworld with Radioactive/Toxic waste. (like in Lem's Stardiaries Humans got the bad habit to drop their waste simply everywhere)
