Raistlin
This is a comparison shot between one of my latest minis, a Reaper Templar, and a scratchbuilt Raistlin I did almost 20 years ago. Back then, there was just no way to get fantasy miniatures around here, so I took it to myself to sculpt my own using plastiscene or, whenever possible, Green Stuff. This one was sculpted out of plastiscene, inspired on the illustrations on one of those old "Make your Own Adventure" D&D books (the ones were you would read a page, then roll a dice and jump to another page to keep reading depending on the result of the encounter). The plastiscene figure was then used to make a plaster mold, onto wich I poured molten lead. As you can tell, there's not much amount of detail, due to the crude casting, and it was painted in oils, and sealed with regular nail varnish. I admit it is not much to look at, these days, but it was a start.
