    Looking pretty good so far

    Sculpting people must be one of the hardest things there is


    I've made a few attempts - this chap is 1/9 and totally scratched. The rifle came out fine but the chap has a few issues


    Olga a toon type figure about 40mm high - much easier as not real


    This is the start of a 1/6 Mujahideen fighter bust with AKM over shoulder - the AKM is a doddle, chap not so much


    These two in overalls were intended to be painting a 35th tank in whitewash but never got finished

    Very frustrating but as you say the more you do the better things get

                    Its progressing well Monica. Did you say your material needs baking? So it's add a little and bake and so on. I think that's rather good in a way. Rome wasn't built in a day as the saying goes.

                    Cheers,
                    Richard

                      hi,Richard ,there is a lot of clays like,premol,wimo,and so on,that do need to be baked,I,m not so sure if your real meant to do it that way,
                      but ,I find that by having it some what set,your not undoing work,so you can add the next lays,not sure if you can use a hairdryer to set
                      the thinner bits ,rather than baking the whole lot,
