UPDATE: Resin casts of his slimy character is available in my Etsy store: www.etsy.com/n...
In this video I sculpt an original miniature for my Etsy store. I show you the steps I like to take when making a new character in polymer clay. I also share some tips, tricks and thoughts along the way.

Cheers! Sometimes you just find something unexpected that fits very well with the project. I really enjoy integrating some found objects or old/discarded sculpts into new creatures.

Fascinating! I'm looking at making a bunch of beasts of Nurgle, and this is giving me great ideas. It also reminded me that I should pick up more of your sculpts to add to my growing pile!

@wilhelminiatures6905 3 жыл бұрын

Nice! Beasts of Nurgle are perfect to sculpt, as they don't need any recognisable human proportions. You can just create whatever you want, as long as it's nasty enough! Please do :)

Great video, thanks for sharing! I love how the sculpt came out, and the multiple head options are great. One way I make fresh clay stick to baked clay is to add a little bit of glue-stick glue to the baked surface. This gives the fresh clay something to grip onto. Just a little bit will do. It doesn't seem to cause any problems during baking.

I think you can put down a layer of petroleum jelly, sculpt polymer clay on top of it, bake it, and it should come apart easy? I've never made minis like this for casting, but I think I've seen that as a solution for making bits that can be sculpted as one piece, then cast separately. IIRC doing that also works for greenstuff.

@wilhelminiatures6905 Жыл бұрын

That sounds like something that can work, and which might be less work than taking a miniature apart before casting. I'll give it a try :)

@jakelevinson7802 Жыл бұрын

Not that it really matters but muscles especially with arms look a lot more realistic and more visually interesting if they’re unbalanced, as there is almost never symmetry in muscles. Although the way you did, it works perfectly well too and still looks cool,

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind the next time I sculpt something overly muscular :)

Tack för en bra guide! Väldigt spännande att höra dina insikter om hur du jobbar med leran. När ett nytt lager sculpey inte fäster på den bakade leran, hur löser du det? Tycker dina figurer är jobbiga att se på, störande och obehagliga. Det är verkligen sjukt bra! Stoff för mardrömmar och historier för gammelmormor att berätta när strömmen gått och åskan rullar utanför.

@wilhelminiatures6905 3 жыл бұрын

Takk! Det er vanskelig å få et nytt lag med sculpey til å feste seg til laget under. Det er derfor jeg la det andrelaget som et skinn rundt Fimo-armaturet. det tredje lager måtte jeg gjøre fordi armene trengte et armatur. Dette var nok egentlig ikke den beste måten å gjøre det på. Det beste er egentlig å gjøre hele figuren i en omgang (to med armaturet), så blir det lettere å sette inn mer og mer leire, samt mindre detaljer. Jeg har mye mer erfaring med å jobbe med Greenstuff enn med polymer clay, som er grunnen til at jeg noen ganger prøver å jobbe i flere lag.

Your incredibly talented! I'm kinda tempted with your snail sculpts. If they were more Nurgled up tho, that would be real nice. Fancy sculpting a mega gargant or similar? I think you could pull it off definitely.

@wilhelminiatures6905 3 жыл бұрын

If you get the snails, you can nurgle them up a bit by adding glue and boils as I do with my Nurgle Mechanicus miniatures! Yes, a Mega Gargant would be an interesting challenge. I already have the Giant Forest Dweller in my collection, but having something a little more human-like would be nice to try out.

@wilhelminiatures6905 3 жыл бұрын

This is dirt from the plant bed we have outside. It has some small rocks and roots in it, which adds some nice variation to the texture. I use the same technique for most of my miniature projects, so you can see the process in a few of my other videos :)
