Quote from: Mike Carroll on 05 April, 2024, 12:09:37 AMThat's fantastic! The Vex figure was very definitely one of my highlights of last year's Lawless, and Midnight is even better! Brilliant work as always, Trooper McFad!

Do you use an air brush for your sculpts?
Was that air dry or "baking" clay you used?
So many questions just trying to learn as much as possible from anyone willing to share.
Scale is about 3 quarter size, not far off full size.
For larger pieces I mostly use oil/wax base Monster Clay which comes in either, Hard, Medium or soft.
Hard and Medium are my go to clays. I favour the Hard for very detailed work as it holds the details well and is less likely to 'smudge' details as you work.
Then mould them in silicone or waste mould in plaster, then cast in resin.
Yep airbrush & traditional artist brushes.
For smaller pieces I use polymer clay (oven bake), Sculpey is more consistent whereas cheaper polymer clay can feel oily/sticky, but it can be made more workable by leeching out some of the oil by sandwiching it between a couple of sheets of ordinary printer paper.
I also occasionally use water base WED clay for quick practice/ideas sculpts.
I never use air-dry clay as it drys/shrinks inconsistently causing cracks or misshaped pieces.
Hope that helps.
