How to Sculpt Fantasy Miniatures Part 5

[TheBlueFalconX]

Soldering gun and solder recommendation?

[epicfantasy]

@TheBlueFalconX doesn't matter. Any soldering pencil and solder is ok. As long as it works. ten dollars at radio shack should do it.

[MrPinuts11]

and what brands do you use?

[epicfantasy]

@MrPinuts11 I like davinci clay

[MrPinuts11]

get that clay stuff now plastic?

[Ydouneed2nomyname]

this clay stays workable even if you leave he mini out in the open?

[epicfantasy]

@Ydouneed2nomyname Yes

[mgm96]

do the techniques you use and tips you give also aaply to green stuff?

[epicfantasy]

@mgm96 Yes, they very much do. Green stuff is very similar to procreate. I do think the procreate is a bit better. It takes shaping and sculpting better.

[Xythe43]

Mine was about 2 1/2 inches should I redo it? I am making a Lizard Man.

[epicfantasy]

@Xythe43 no, it's quite alright. You go ahead and finish it off. It's good practice. you can always make a smaller one afterwards.

[Xythe43]

@epicfantasy shouldnt monsters like lizard man be bigger and cooler just asking

[epicfantasy]

@Xythe43 Yes, typically the monster should be bigger.

Do you cook the clay after? It's clay. It'll get easily disfigured. How do you cook them? How many degrees?

[sevenar7R]

just howw detailed should i make the drawings? just enough to get the general shape of the model right?

[epicfantasy]

@sevenar7R Right, you can do the drawing just so you can get the general shape and pose of the miniature. Add in any details that are really important to you like weapons.

[ainedhel]

you can also bake sculpey add more sculpey on top of that and bake it again

[epicfantasy]

This is a great tip. Thanks! Sculpey is a great material for making miniatures. Inexpensive and takes tooling very well. It is a good place to start when learning how to sculpt because it doesn't dry out so you can continue working with it.

[animationtristan]

superb tutoring. Clear as crystal!

[bubblesofhell]

is super sculpey firm the same as super sculpy polymer clay

[rrrrw999]

@bubblesofhell No they are separate products. Firm holds details a little better, especially if you accidentally touch or drop your figure.

[magicbuskey]

This is VERY cool. I've learned so much so far and we're not even half way through the series. I love your channel!
