Hi all! Wow, hasn't it been a long time... I hope that you are all well. A number of years back I was heavily into miniature sculpture, attempting to create my own brand of spooky clown figurines. I took a break from sculpting to further my understanding of things in 2D and to re-establish...

Hi guys, I am soon to delve into the tricksy world of water effects and was hoping some of you might offer me advice? I hear this technique can be a tad temperamental! I will specifically be using Woodland Scenics Realistic Water and Tamiya clear paints (smoke and clear red). To cut a long...

Decided to sculpt a bust. Hoping that the larger scale will help me develop my skills. Quick concept sketch: Early sculpting progress: I'm using a Green Stuff / MagicSculp mix and have recently moved to using Vaseline as a lubricant (previously used tap water).

I am sculpting some zombie clowns for metal casting. They will be based on my first Mad Clown sculpts, Evil Clown, Sad Clown and Pie Clown. Here are the basic armatures: You can see the original sculpts in the WIP section of this forum, or alternatively on Facebook.

Here is a new(ish) project of mine: a goblin, for metal casting. This is the second attempt at his face, the first of which I chopped off a month ago. The original head was a little too big and not especially orky. The new head looks a lot more fitting but is actually even bigger than the...

Hey guys, My brother is looking for a Golum miniature for a friends birthday. He has approached me to create one, but I know he could likely get better for the money. Does anybody know of a Golum miniature or bust, even by an independent sculptor? I'm sure there's somebody out there selling...

Hey guys, I just wanted to inform you all of a rather cool new Kickstarter campaign currently live. You should definitely check out Bunnies Vs Zombies, as it looks rather spectacular! The art style, game concept, videos and sculpts all look pretty good to me. The guys at Ninja Division and...

A year ago, whilst browing CMON, I spotted a forum ad looking for a sculptor. The concept art really grabbed me and I instantly responded, offering my services. I set about sculpting a trial sculpt, but the project was soon snapped up by Soda Pop Miniatures, who of course provided their team of...

As the title suggests, I will be painting an Uncle John bust from Infamy Miniatures as part of their current painting contest! I primed him a week or so ago using Halfords grey card body primer. I took the opportunity to also undercoat two of my own miniatures: Creepy Mouth Monster and the so...

I'm trying to make my own wet palette but am missing one crucial item... parchment paper. Many "how to" guides specify baking paper or grease proof paper, where others say it must (must) be parchment paper. From what I read, greaseproof and silicone lined papers won't allow sufficient...

I have had a lot of requests for a circus ring master miniature. I decided to use it as an opportunity to create a new sculpt for metal casting. Here is the basic armature:

Hey all, I thought I'd test the waters for interest in a new Sculptalong? My proposal is for GW Chaos Daemons, starting with Horrors of Tzeentch. There have been a few different versions of these creepy creatures, but the original set has always stuck with me. In principal they should be...

In preparation for my table at Salute 2014 I am building my first diorama! The survival horror inspired corridor scene will promote some of my new resin releases, The Faceless. Today I received a delivery of foamboard and set about building the basic structure. It's fairly sturdy and although...

In preparation for my stall at Salute 2014 I am feverishly finishing all sorts of sculpts for casting. I aim to share a new and complete sculpt each Monday between now and the show! Let me begin with this creepy discarded soft toy, measuring 15mm long: ...sculpted using a Green...

This thread will document my own paint jobs of my Mad Clown Miniatures casts. I'm very much a n00b painter so bear with me and please give me plenty of advise! I will be starting with my recent release, the Puppet Monster. For those of you not familiar with him: He's washed, cleaned up and...

As a friend and fan of Warploque Miniatures I decided to celebrate the recent Kickstarter success with my own interpretation of one of his sculpts: a Jungle Gremlin. Here is the latest WIP shot. He is sculpted from a Green Stuff / MagicSculp mix and stands 20mm to the eyes. Great fun!

I've started a new sculpt based on a scribble I did a few weeks back: The creature is intended as a transitional stage in the mutation from Mad Clown to Creepy Mouth Monster *. * http://www.coolminiornot.com/forums/showthread.php?52828-Creepy-Mouth-Monster The armature was 28mm (or 32mm)...

Here is my latest completed miniature: a 1/57 scale cowboy sculpted in a 50:50 mix of green stuff and MagicSculp. The piece is based on an artwork by Frederic Remington and will be a gift for my dads birthday (he loves cowboys & indians). ...and the original artwork: I had hoped to have...
