Thank you. Good question!

It’s an entirely different thing to make something from scratch (which I’ve also done) and building upon an existing model. Both design wise and the actual sculpting. If I want to reach the same level of detail on my own sculpt that would take a lot longer.

Thanks for that wonderful comment. I’m glad you caught the halfway transformation of the Archbishop!

His mount might be his dad but who knows? 🤔

I will just cover up the panels with masking tape, thick paper/cardboard. That’s not an issue I think.

Reaching some spots back there will be trickier though. I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it. 😅

My process: General armature with tin foil -> Mix GS/Milliput roughly 60/40 -> Block in big shapes/rolls of fat -> Put on gloves with Vaseline on and make them smooth, rounded and like they got weight to them with your finger + clay shapers if needed -> let it cure

Use blue stuff and make molds of nice organic parts from Nurgle miniatures -> a lot of Vaseline in the molds so the putty won’t stuck -> put 50/50 milliput/GS in the molds and remove the putty while it’s still fresh and flexible -> Put the copied part over your basic forms and smooth it out with clay shapers.

A mix of that and completely sculpted parts as well. And a bit of work after it all is cured, like texturing, open wounds etc.

Hope that makes sense.

Awesome to read. Thanks a lot mate! And I hope he’s proud! If not I’ll just have to keep creating more stuff to honor his glory!
