Hi everyone i plan to sculpt a orc dragon hybrid.

I will be using a plasticine and wax mix.

I've been sculpting for about nine years but only recently started doing complete monster sculpts and this was a great way to give myself a deadline.


I would really like to hear some tips and tricks for more detailed work.

So this is todays progress the skin and the body is complete. Now i am going to make the accessories. The accessories are basically going to bee orcish scrap armor which was gathered from defeated enemies.

I wait any criticism because i want to improve my sculpting skills. Thanks

Nice sculpt with a lot of personality. If I can add my 2 cents, I would start to look at adding details such as some rivets holding pieces together. Cutting the heads off some larger pins and pushing them in works well. I would also get a sharp flat tool and add some crispness to the edges - maybe add some angles and planes to make it look like hand beaten metal or battle scars! Little things like that can get rid of the rounded clay look. You could also start to get more creases in the finger joints or texture to the horns. Get some reference for the little things and it can add a lot to the finish of a piece. Stick it in a fridge or freezer for a while and you can carve really crisp detail, maybe some wood texture to the shield- ok I'll stop now lol. Nothing bad to say about it at all, just think you can push it a bit further

Thanks for all the replies. I wish i could ad more detail to it and i was planing to do it some time soon but i got stacked with a ridiculous amount of school work and i might be able to do some final touching up at the last few days of the month. A thanks for all of the tips for adding more detail
