Eitlob's doodle[s]...

[Ben]

man you're making me want to try out some sculpy stuff.

[eitlobsaboo]

A block of it (bout 7x7x15cm) cost me $25.. You could try the smaller coloured blocks that are like $4 a pop just to try it out..

[Ben]

I may have to give it a shot.

Sister uses Sculpey, loves the stuff.

NEED OPINIONS.. I'm kinda torn to how it should look..

Should the back of him have the same stubby tentacles like the front or should I smooth it over as if they were tucked into his pants.. (possibly giving him 3 ass cracks?)

[kleptoman]

Solution: make two.

I like the idea of the squid tentacles being out cause then it looks kind of like a normal guy who's had a squid sitting on his head attempting to eat him.

Fair point.. I did smooth it over last night though.. changed the eyes too:

[Ben]

ooh dig the new eyes, now that I've seen it I think I actually prefer the smoothed back.

[eitlobsaboo]

Yeah I think its less cluttered and a cleaner look.. My mum says it looks like a gnome. HAHA.

I've bought all the gear to mold/cast it too, so hopefully in the next few weeks I can make my first pull.

[Ben]

you still planning on doing the thing with the changeable tops?

[eitlobsaboo]

Nah, I thought about it for a bit and I'll start simple first. If this works well, then I'll give it a go. Need to know if there is any shrinkage and by how much etc etc

THANKS SONYCJET! My next figure will have a glorious moustache

The one on the left might by Putin. Don't know about the right. But why the fake mustaches? What does it mean? What is it advertising? I can't Google translate a jpeg!
Possibly our most mysterious spambot yet. I'm going to leave this one alone for a bit, just in case it's some kind of obscure treasure hunt.

How do you go about baking it before you cast it? Will it work fine sitting on top of that huge chunk of metal in the over? I would have thought the reflected heat would bake it unevenly, but I've never actually gotten that far with sculpy. I have a pound of super sculpy around here I bought years ago, but I never got ambitious enough to try and make anything out of it.
