The helmet is the final piece of the armour. I've added other elements to the armour but logistics of getting them in to render without having to spend hours decimating things is a bit too much to handle for a quick WIP update. Instead, here is the helmet.
Right now there will be 4 head options. Bald, standard wit...

Quick update mostly focusing on a specific part this time. I'm having to work on this project in two different projects due to how heavy the armour meshes are causing instability in Zbrush so getting renders out is a bit of a chore. Figured I'd show the sword and scabbard that will be available as full scale 1:1 versions too....

Managed to get a fair amount done despite all the farting around with Itch and it being broken. Thanks to the detail in the armour I'm having to take a different approach to working on this one. My main sculpt is only using a lower resolution version of the armour due to how heavy the meshes are. Rendering is difficult too as...

Started work on the armour for Cassandra over the last couple of days. Not much to say overall other than I am REALLY enjoying this and I'm glad I've got a 4K printer for this one.
The bit I'm not looking forward to is positioning all this armour along with a pose. With it being all metal I can't really cheat by flexing...

Oh boy, it's already here. It's Christmas! Though it's not official until I've watched Die Hard and listened to Slade.
Thank you so much! Entries for the painting competition are now closed and the response has been amazing.

UPDATE: Seems the problem was on Itch's side. They pushed a fix and it appears the issue may well be resolved. Let me know if there are still issues and sorry for the inconvenience.
It has been brought to my attention that claiming the November release via the Itch.io links are giving errors ...

Madame Whiskey is officially finished. I spent an entire day breaking my brain trying to key the arms for the Tommy gun options due to the arms and the nsfw version being quite different from the standard ones but I got there in the end. Quite happy with the barrel and the base overall and I'm glad I managed to get the tommy ...

So, she has a Tommy Gun option now :) Making the Tommy Gun work was a real pain. The stock and the location of the foregrip make it difficult to pose without moving the shoulders and shoulder blades so I opted to have her resting the Tommy gun on her thigh while holding a cigarette or a whiskey bottle. I also modified the amm...

Not a huge amount to say on this update, just a quick one after blocking in the majority of the bits and pieces. Still need to add her jewellery and more sculptural detail to the face and upper torso and legs and I need to make the cloth sim dress usable in zbrush (likely going to be the most difficult part). Also going to be...

So I've had my head down working hard on December's release for the past 4 days trying to get as much blocked in as I can as I am going to try and do a few variants of this model and I'll need as much time as I can get to make sure it all works (Tommy Gun option and of course a Christmas variant to name a couple).
I hope you all had a fantastic Samhain and weren't taken by the Wild Hunt. Now there's nothing stopping Christmas and Mariah Carey.
The painting competition is still going until the end of this month. Get your entries in before November 30th to win some awesome priz...

Currently in the process of test printing and making sure everything works but so far results are good. Magda has been quite a smooth piece to work on, everything behaved itself and i'm quite happy that she's virtually seamless in the print and assembly too.

Not too far off now. Whip blade, base, hair tweaks and detail pass on the skin left to go then it'll be time to start decimating and chopping her up. Probably going to be experimenting with the whip blade some more in terms of physically printing it to make the wire fitment work properly. Currently there's a 1.2mm hole throug...

Happier with face now, the lips are reading better but still needs some more work. Hair is blocked in and now starting to add detail as I go throughout the clothing, experimenting with patterns and textures and seeing where I want to go with the surfaces. Magda feels a bit more "modern" than the other sisters so I'm trying to...

I would have loved to have posted some more WIPs but every time I've come to post something Patreon has been down or acting as if it's hosted on a Raspberry Pi like Thingiverse. Looks as though it's working today so I'm posting something a bit further along than normal.
It seems the more clothes a character has the easi...

After Mortaya was received so well this month I'm happy to present her sister, Death's Spell Weaver, Shryka. She is entirely finished and will be available to Hero tiers and above from October 3rd. Oh and it's Halloween at the end of the month so of course I had to include some options.

Hey folks
Here's a quick preview of Shryka! She has been a dream to work on. No major issues and everything went smoothly (for a change). There will be the following options and bonus features:
• 3 head options - standard, bald, and halloween special
• 4 blade options, straight blade, curved blade and flami...
All I've got left to add are the shoes, the flame in the hand and some extra little decorative beads and buckles to some areas, and to the chainmail and then it's on to the fun stage of adding detail, refining wrinkles, adding texture etc etc. The flaming scimitar you see here is just one of four weapon options which in...

Hey guys,
I'm a couple of weeks late for this but I have now been on Patreon for a year and I cannot stress enough just how thankful I am for your ongoing support. You've all contributed to helping me achieve a lifelong goal of working as a professional sculptor full time.
To celebrate I would like to announ...

Quick update for you guys. Started adding in the smaller elements. She's almost totally blocked in, just got to add the hair and spend some time modelling out the sword and her finger armour things then it's all in on refinement and details. Managed to make some use of the new features of Zbrush 2021, but they're not as super...

First off, yes, I'll be toning down the back muscles. I was enjoying them too much.
Pretty much just getting all the major forms blocked in. The anatomy was most of it, though I've not done much with the face yet. Largely got all the different elements in place and now I can go in and start refining things. Was ho...

Hey guys, normally I would have had another set of WIPs before putting up a preview of the finished model but Mortaya has proved to be one the heaviest of my models to date in terms of polygon count and model pieces. She weighed in around 300 million polygons total with 155 pieces which made it extremely difficult and unpleas...

Starting to come together nicely. Still got a few elements to get in, including her ponytail - I wanted to get that done last night before rendering but with the heat of the weather right now my brain wasn't up to the task. Still got to add her shoes and shin guards, a few accessories like banding on her other arm, her second...

Hey folks, hope you're all doing well.
