Sculpting a character with no hard surface elements like weapons or functional parts like belts, pouches, and other holsters is much easier and quicker. Here's to fleshy tentacle women from Hell for making this month's sculpt easier on me.
The base will likely be the most complex for this one, especially when it comes t...

Making extremely rapid progress on this month's model thanks to it being mostly cloth. Sister Mary will be part one of a two part diorama much like The Anointing with Keena and Ronelle.
I have a lot of accessories to do with this one and more than a couple of weapons to add, as well as different holster rigs and a Bible...

I would love to see a federal investigation into the claims here. Though, being aware of Patreon's previous activities of policing only one side of the political spectrum, unfairly and unjustifiably banning users despite not breaking TOS, I would not be surprised if it turned out to be true.
I cannot, in good conscience...

I don't know what it is about this month, but everything has been taking longer than I like. Well, I DO know why. It's mostly down to the amount of hard surface work and the sheer scale of the model. I have to work on things in separate files to prevent autosaving from taking 5 minutes a piece and destroying my flow.
So...

Just got done with the large chunk of hard surface modelling for next month's model. Got the giant mechanical hand finished, just need to weather it and give it some damage. Also got the rifle finished, which will need some wear and tear as well. Now I have these pieces finished I can properly pose Eris and get going on her.<...

Hey guys
As you may know, the alternative to Patreon is now up and running as of this month.
This alternative was set up to give me some insurance from the increasingly unclear future that Patreon seems to be heading toward. A few of you already know some of the controversies that Patreon has had over the last sev...

The sky is on fire. The Veil burns with eerie incandescence, and from behind the ethereal embers, the stars watch with a malignant permanence. With nothing to separate Aestara from the roiling void, it seeps into the land and spreads its stain, corrupting and spoiling whatever it touches.

Back from vacation, now married, and I even have a bit of a tan which I previously thought impossible.
I managed to get a decent start on Ronelle before going on holiday so she should be done on time, including the joining base that will bring her and Keena together into the full diorama.
Still got a fair bi...

Sorry the WIPs have been lacking this month, I've had my head down trying to get everything finished (who needs sleep anyway) so I can make a start on the second model before my vacation.

Due to my upcoming vacation on the 26th I've been keeping my head down to get as much done as quickly as I can so I can make a start on the next accompanying model that will follow for September.

This diorama is part 3 of a 3 part series. A unifying base brings together Aleric, Jericho and Anya into a single large-scale diorama. Full release on July 3rd includes:
Quick preview of Aleric the Craven, the corrupted Coven Alchemist. Weapon choice was a tough one. I wanted something a bit steampunky that tied in with alchemy and someone on my Discord suggested Tesla coils, so I gave him some sort of Tesla coil inspired electro spikes.
The diorama base that brings together Aleri...

Fixed the legs to give a more natural pose - double knee humans aren't easy to find as reference but this is an improvement. Pretty much done with Aleric himself at this point, still working out weaponry. Quite likely going to make something out of alchemy equipment, maybe some weaponised Tesla coil and some form of cleaver p...

Having a blast working on this so far. This is Aleric the Craven, the third and final model for the Inquisitors series and the big bad guy that Anya and Jericho have been sent to deal with after he fell to corruption.
I wanted him to resemble the clerics from the previous two pieces but more of a "levelled up" ver...

Made a bunch of progress lately. Decided to add the option for hand axes in place of his right holster/pistol so you can choose whichever you prefer. Also got his bowie knife done, though most of it is buried in the chest of the corrupted cleric (was still fun to make at least). Largely done with Jericho himself now so will b...
