Greets- New Here & Sculpting/Modeling Small letters

[jdtingley]

Hello All. Want to say thanks to the CMON team and all the great people who contribute to the site Ive been lurking around CMON for a few months and am finally looking to start sculpting.

My question was do you know how to or can link me to soruces for sculpting letters and small text on minis. Ive searched for this on the forum, in the CMON articles and the web but have come up with really nothing.

Id viewed Scibors collection (Link) and though I realize that level of detail and how to achieve it is a bit advanced, if I can get close thatd be great.. :beer:

Thanks again and hope your all have a good day

Scibor uses press moulds designed in a 3D software.

Depending on what, exactly, you\'re looking to do, you might also be able to use pre-made plastic alphabet letters, available down to 2mm tall, typically found in model railroad shops. Not sure where you\'re located but in the US you\'d be looking for Plastruct and in the UK you\'d want Slater\'s. I used the Plastruct letters to put my name on the base of this guy (if you\'ll forgive the shameless pimping):
