Man that's just beautiful. So what are we looking at price-wise for a bust? Are you going to paint them, or are you gonna offer unpainted kits?

I'll be offering these unpainted, but ready to paint with everything you need..
I wish I could paint them, but I really don't have the time.. Just casting them
and trimming alone takes quite a while
anyone interested please PM Me for further details Thanks!!

Re: My very first Sculpt..Ever!! Sculpting a Mannequin Torso

Well, Continuing on I figured I would do a super quick
Sculpt of half Mannequin for all the parts to sit nicely on..
It's not the best in the world, But you'll probably only see
about 2" of it anyway.. While I was sculpting I did some test
fiting to make sure everything sat perfect, and once I got it,
I was shocked at what a difference it made in the look of the
overall sculpt.. I love it even more now

As you can see it looks like it's wearing the leather suit..
My initial Idea was to just give the Mannequin a Muscular build
with nothing on (nude) Eeeeeek's
But after I finished the nude sculpt, I decided I didn't like it,
so I added the clothes
I did keep the muscular build for two reasons..
1) The armor fit very nicely with the right muscular build
2) There's some pics of Vader I have where you can see his
build through the leather because the leather is worn pretty tight
and I thought that it made him look meaner and bigger like what Vader
should look like. So that's what I went for..

I still have some cleanup work to do before molding, but This will
complete the half bust.. I'm excited to see all the parts assembled..

Re: My very first Sculpt..Ever!! Update!! Sculpting the Body

Just checking in to see if you've made any progress on the body. I'm really looking forward to seeing the half bust completed!

Re: My very first Sculpt..Ever!! Update!! Sculpting the Body

Yes I'll hopefully have some pics up soon.. I've been trying to figure out how the
pieces will mount and stay in place.. I'm thinking those really strong earth magnets.. I tried it on the shoulder bells. it's clean looking, and it holds great The Armor doesn't need it since it can just sit on top of the Body..

I made the Head seperate (nothing fancy) so it can be adjustable for whoever orders a kit..

 

[ArtisanProps]

Here He is! Fully painted in all his Glory
I've made a lot of changes, and as you can see
I even sculpted the chestbox (sorry I didn't post
any progress pics) The body I made before felt too
rushed and so I made a new one.. When I finished the
new Body I then realized that i had an empty spot
where the Chest Armor stoped, so I made a mini Chestbox
to fill the space..

I'm a lot happier now that I made the changes.. I just
didn't feel comfortable sending out any of the kits with
the way it looked before.. It's a nicer, much more complete
kit IMO I really wish the pictures did it justice, but
they really don't.... comments always welcome.. Good, or Bad

I've got prices on the third pic down for anyone who is
interested in buying a kit.. Just send Me a PM and I'll
give you payment instructions..
