 Post subject: The Greyryder Rydes Again! (2 fantasy character WIPs)

I've been fairly happy with my Greyryder custom, but he really doesn't look much like his pictures. So, I took the biggest Joe I could find, and started making this:

Image
I'm using Apoxie Sculpt on him, but I'm still not comfortable with it, so I'm building up the basic shapes out of styrene and Kneadatite. I gotta use up all the Kneadatite I still have, somehow. I'd rather find a properly sized well sculpted toy wolf's head to use, but I doubt that's gonna happen. Gonna depend on the size of Schleich's upcoming wolf, and if I can get my hands on one.

Despite the fact that I still haven't finished that first creature I started making months ago, I decided to make the Technothrope queen, Dy'val

Image
So far, I haven't felt the need to use any Kneadatite, on her. That green on her legs, is Squadron putty, sude to fill hte gaps in the styrene. Her lower left arm is held on with a magnet I found, and will be removeable, so I can put on other extremties. Technothropes are kind of amorphous. Character line art is here.

Thanks, rev. I need to get some artwork done, for my website, but I have some progress to show on these two, before too long. The werewolf will probably take the longest, since sculpting is still well outside of my comfort zone, and he's gonna need a lot.

Grey I have always loved your bots and I think I am going to love these. Glad to see you are producing again.
