Imperial legs

In the quest for my Imperial Guard army I thought Ied do multi part trouper. I got the legs dun this week and the torso will be next week. I snapped some pics of the process.

As I’m just starting out in this sculpting bis, I went and had a look at some tutorial, here’s two that I found very helpful.

Massive Voodoo, nice tutorial and a nice site of minicher related stuff.

Tom Mason’s YouTube channel, lots of good stuff here, some more advanced techniques and sume chat about the sculpting industry.

So to sum pics

The armicher, I use 24 gage stainless steal, and I find it’s good to keep the knee distinct.

Next we cover the armicher with a thin layer of green stuff.

Then befor the green stuff goes off, add a layer of Super Sculpey. I don’t add much more than this befor leaving it till the green stuff has hardened.

I forgot to take pics of the rest of the steps. But they are, bulk it out till there is a good form and then add details. I tend to work from the bottom up when add details and I do add them as  opposed to cutting them into the clay. This does give me the problem of my sculpts sometimes end up too big.

Thanks of looking.
