Burrows & Badgers - getting back to sculpting!
Finishing off...
I also went back to the loincloth area; it had served the purpose of making the miniature easier to mould and cast, but I wasn’t happy with the way it looked. So I extended it across the miniature further, which helped to improve the balance a lot.
Finally, I wanted this badger to be an old, wise brock; so I thought a bit of extra hair might help give that impression. I added small amounts of putty to the back of his head and lower jaw, then worked them into shape.
And that was the job finished; after a six month hiatus, I’ve finally sculpted a new miniature!
Fantastic so far
Thanks mate!
Amazing and a really well documented step by step of a scupt. Great for budding miniature sculptors. Looking forward to the next 14 🙂
Cheers – I guess I’d better get sculpting!
Looking great! I ordered the rulebook today and really can’t wait to get playing.
Out of interest how long did it take to sculpt this mini from start to finish?
About 4 days, but I was doing other stuff as well; if it was just sculpting him non-stop, about 20 hours, probably.
Amazing blog, an absolute joy seeing this come together
Thank you!
Amazing piece of work, wonderful to see all the stages in such detail. Also who doesn’t love a pipe-smoking wizard 🙂
Excellent. I’ve often wondered how the initial miniature was made, now I know. Thanks a lot very informative.
