Thirty odd peices of green.

I did a quick clear up of my desk last night and sorted out figures that are up for casting.  I was pretty surprised by the result.  Wow.  It turns out that I have sculpted 33 figures since releasing Bederken Dwerg Series 1- and that does not include commissioned figures or scratch builds for my own collection- that's just for Bederken!

It just goes to show how addictive this craft can be.  It was only January last year I had just finished my first ever mini sculpts and nervously posted them a sculpting forum.  If you ever had a dream about learning to sculpt your own figures, dive right in.  It is frustrating and hard at first, but you get quicker and more confident very quickly.  That's fuelled by the awesome power of being able to have ANY MINIATURE YOU LIKE!  Very much worth the effort persisting in my book.

Sculpting wise I had a productive day yesterday - for Bederken I finished the sculpts for The BeZooken Dwerg  figure (Dwerg with bazooka), two more Dwerg fighters, the DungeonNoob fighter, my first ever Ogre and wrapped up by knocking out a Zombie toad munching on a brain especially for Mr.Saturday.

New Dwerg Shield Sprues, Yale Arse Cannon, Crossbows and blunderbuss's coming along very nicely too.

  1. Oh man. My cup runneth over. The fact that someone is sculpting Cha - I mean Dwergs is good enough, but when they're also really good it's just wondertastic.

    And a zombie toad?! well, that's just the little zombie cherry on the big cake of groove.

  2. Actually, a notion strikes me. Ever gave any thought to sculpting some Fimir?

  3. Oh yeah, Fimir could be cool. Dave, this calls for some pictures - but you already know that, don't you :-)
