warcraft busts in sculpey, paladin and orc warchief

[francacereu]

hi everybody, this is my first post on this forum, just to show 2 figures i am working on, the paladin Uther from the Blizzard game warcaft 3, and an orc warchief, based also on the game but not an accurate portrait of a certain character, both of these figures are done in super sculpey, and are about 10 cm tall (without counting the base they will be displayed on) any comments and suggestions are welcome! here are the pics:

Of the two I prefer the Orc. It definitely has appeal for me.
The Paladin looks a little too Dwarven, but without enough facial hair detail.

However as always I\'m in awe of people who can really sculpt.

Thanks a lot for the comment! in fact, for some reason the photos look blurry, so the facial hair detail it\'s not noticeable, anyway, now that you mantion it...it kinda looks dwarven, but the character design looks lika that (not my fault! lol) i\'ll get better pictures and post them later, cheers.

Well, i haven\'t found a better camera yet, so i took some low-res pics with da phone, to kinda show how the figures look finished, it has a coat of gray primer, and i\'ll ask a friend to do the painting later, here goes:

comments and suggestions always welcome.

They look really cool, i like the fact that the Pally looks like Uther Lightbringer.....The ork is really good as well, but being a Pally player myself i prefer him lol You going to paint these things?

@ Ekkanus I\'t\'s probably not a wise idea to ask DaN to sit on your face....




Sorry that was disgusting and way past the mark and below the belt lol

@Francacereu - Aside from the dentist-white teeth it looks great

The one with the mustache looks kind of like a lion or cat. Having the center/underneath of the nose drop so far, the distance from the top lip and the bottom of the nose are too far. This makes the mustache much taller and ends up looking like cat cheeks.

@Shawn, thanks a lot for your comment, in fact, this is the kind of feedback that i need in order to improve my sculpting, i had sort of that impression from other comments about something on the face that i could not accurately pinpoint (saying it looks too dwarven,according to Mr Dragonsreach, i must say i agree with that), it must be that measurement of the facial proportions, i was trying to aim for an angry look, with lots of wrinkles on the nose and eyelids, but it didn\'t work the way i wanted point taken for future models, anyway, here are the pictures of the Uther bust painted, hope you like them! cheers.

Fascinating - painted, the \'cat look\' disappears!!
