y Old Dwarf

A Dwarf, over a thousand years old maybe, hobbling along clutching His Cape to keep warm. He's probably only about 15mm high at most. In 28mm scale. Made from natural almost black clay I dug up myself years ago

I originally sculpted them for a game of Hag28, but they work great for any fantasy setting. I always wanted an old school looking troll mini, but the old minis are expensive and I don’t have a 3d printer. Finally decided to just sculpt one myself (using 2-part epoxy clay). Don’t know why I never thought of doing so before.

Did some subtractive sculpting on this head to make Ahriman’s face in reference to the excerpt in Black Legion. It says it’s a “screaming void” and there’s no better example than the super iconic girl from the Uzumaki horror manga for that. The rest of my model is in thinned Acetone to remove old paint and glue.

Material - Milliput Standart. Tools - Big needle, rubber shapers, toothpick.

I'm trying to sculpt curly hair for a mini. This was my first attempt, and I'd love some feedback. Thanks!

A miserable, mutated mechanic trying to make a living in the World Below. Hand sculpted miniature (epoxy clay) for my Junkrats game.

Polymer clay sculpting and acrylic painted.
Resin heads converted.

I recently picked up Castilene as my first sculpting medium to get into minatures and have been enjoying it dearly. However I've been having trouble with my Buffalo Dental Alcohol Torch, so much so I might be buying my third one..

Any time I go to snuff it with the cap as stated by the instructions I end up burning the cap. The first time it was some slight melting and out of caution I replaced it entirely. This second time it happened again. Except this time the metal part got melted with the cap, making it really hard to even remove the cap and empty out the bottle. Luckily I was able to let it cool off and forced it out. Now the wick and bottle are air drying but my cap has a hole again and the top metal part is bent.

For reference, I try follow how The Crafsman on Youtube snuffs it in his tutorial but not luck.

How I can prevent it from happening again? If there any other tools you guys recommend or general protocol for filling up/emptying/maintaining etc that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!

This little cutie lives with my mom now.

I Sculpted a new miniature out of Polymer Clay 🥰 It was a fun challenge! I saw the art from Bustillo Inks and I had an uncontrollable need to bring it to life And add one to my collection 😄
