Bloodthirster 3

This is a edited version of my previusly shown Bloodthirster. It is sculptured in chavant-clay, and took about 3½ week to finish. Hopefully it will have the time to make a cast of it, and after that i will be selling of a selected few copies...

hi! How would you go about making a mold for this? a silicone mold? a 2 part plaster mold? Please get back to me. I wouldn't mind trying these out! Also I'm assuming casting would be either in some hard foam or plastic? slip cast maybe?

@Psyc0Productions You have to cut the sculpture up into several pieces and cast these separatly in 2-part silicone moulds. That will result in a kind of a "puzzle" in the end. You glue the pices together and spackle the joints - Time consuming, but really the only way to get all of the details correct. This bloodthirster would require about 16 small 2-part and one bigger 3-part silicon moulds, because of all the armour parts that have to be removed and casted separatly. One day.... ;-)

You sir have made my day that is truly excellent work. How long did it take from scratch? What references did you use? did you make any drawings yourself? Sorry for all the questions, I have just started to use Chavant and find the soft a little too soft to play with but the medium is nice and the hard is well just what it says hard. Any tips you can give would be greatly appreciated. Take care man hope to see another video of yours soon. Peace from the Chameleon.

@CHAMELEON1974 @CHAMELEON1974 If you wanna get ahead I strongly recomend the Sculpture DVDs from The Gnomon Workshop - Sculpture 1,2 and 3. They are kinda amature made (sometimes boring to), but packed with fundamental knowledge that a lot of people tend to forget while sculpting. Good luck :-)

Wow! Did you end up casting it? Do you have any copies for sale?

[Malsum]

@UseMacs Sorry... nope ;-) ...but I still have hope that I one day will have the time. My estimate is that it will require 16 small 2-part silicone moulds and one big 3-part, and thats a job not taken lightly...

Who would win? The Balrog of Moria or the Bloodthirster of Khorne?

[donovanwilder]

dude this thing is BEAST!

[davycrocketful]

great work..id love to see this painted..

[XivilaiAnaxes]

Is that a Spoon of Khorne? that thing needs a Big axe to compliment its size..

I laughed on the inside when i saw it and thought "maybe that's an incomplete peice" Good work on the head and body. the feet uhm... looks like a old picture of badly drawn satan hooves. BT's look better with Horse/Bull hooves or clawed gargoyle type feet. But overall GOOD WORK! 8.7 out of 10
