NEW SCULPT!!!!! 01-23-2010

 

Re: New sculpt 01-23-2010 FIST PAGE

a name ? a picture ?

 

Don't really have a name for him yet, been deciding on a few names.

 

Is this going to be just a head bust or will he have a body also?

It looks pretty cool. Lot of nice stuff going on in it.

 

It's going to have a body as well, Im working on the torso right now. Im expecting the figure to stand close to 12" tall

 

thats sweet. keep up the good work.

i still need a General.

 

Great Job - Figure looks very promising and for it to stand 12" I'm feeling it even more - love to see updated pics of how the body is turning out

 

This looks to be a pretty ambitious undertaking. The figure is much more involved than the General. One of my favorite things about the General Kyoufu was how straight forward it is with such clean unadorned lines. Even the texture on the one arm is very understated. With this new project you seem to be going in the opposite direction which could turn out to be very interesting. I like the head so far with the starfish/skull emerging from the gaping mouth and the sort off tentacles around the back of the head. With so much going on you do need to be careful of overkill though. I'm reminded a bit of the Dead Stockers (not in look-alike but complexity) which I had problems with until I saw the right paint job (PK) that sold me on it .
It's nice to see you back sculpting again and I look forward to watching the progression of this new project. Good Luck!

 

Thanks Autopsy ill be sure to update the progress.

I know it's a huge difference then the General, and one of the big difference is that i know have a great set of tools haha. But like you said i will be sure not to go overkill on the detail, Speaking of detail the ropes coming out of the eyes that are holding on the skull took me forever to do and many headaches haha. Hopefully it will look good painted up.
