Description
...ready for my paint-up, Mister DeMille...Hihohiho, here's the big lad ready at last for getting some colour chucked at him, one last prime-up here, and now I'll be off to do some brushery-stuff - or at any rate, I'll be off down the art-shop for some new brushes 'cause I've knackered all the ones I have got. Fudgenfluff.
- only trouble is, now I can't decide which bit to start on, though I guess it's only sensible to leave the skintones 'til last 'cause after all I'll be hanging on to him by several bits of it while I'm painting the rest of him, so it'd all be shedding like a leper having his last laughs.
Anyway. Sword-arm finally attached; scabbard-thing added on the back, plus a couple or two extra dangly bits of stuff here and there; claws and toenails trimmed and shaped, and anything else I think I thunked of at the time, as well as the several that I didn't, and that's about his lot. Think I might've maybe overdone it a bit on the vascularity side of things, but I'll disappear it a bit when the paint-job comes along, and pretend it never happened.

little bits of several different media - the major mass of him is plasticene, strengthened and made solid with milliput for the bulk of the over-skinning work - backed up of course with various bits of armature and wire where the finer bits need the support;
- bits of chain for the chainy bits, clearly enough; the sword is perspex for the blade, while the hilt is of milliput skinned over a perspex crosspiece, and then the handle has a core of aluminium armature that runs into the body of the blade, the wrappings on the handle being 'greenstuff' as it's called;
- a combination of greenstuff for fine detail over basic work in milliput for the belt-area, with the sort of hanging-bits made using a two-part process involving shaped pieces of 1mm-thickness 'plasticard', covered over and detailed with greenstuff again, which gives a finished piece of plasticky-something stuff that's flexible enough to bend quite considerably without risk of breaking.
I think that's about it, although the head, hands and feet were cast in resin from plasticene originals that I made, and then stuck to and modelled onto the body...

The vascularity's one of the elements of what's making me love this so much, dude LOL

I had tried to be a bit more subtle with it, but my efforts were all in vein.
