Merry Christmas Everyone!!!


Hey everyone figured I would post a Merry Christmas to everyone and show you my latest project at the same time! :D Here is a flower, a "just joey" to be exact that I made for my wife as a part of her Christmas package wrapping/ as a present. I made it from sculpey and then painted it with acrylics. Enjoy the pics! :D


On a more personal note I would just like to add that I am thankful for everything that my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has done for us this year, and always has for that matter, and what a wonderful God he is. Thanks to his birth and coming to save us all from our sins we have this wonderful season of giving and rejoicing each year. So thank you to the Most High God Emmanuel!


Thanks everyone for a great year and for stopping by and checking out my projects! I promise this next year I will continue to post new projects and as I gain skill in sculpting and paper art hopefully I will have some more extravagant things to post hehe. This will probably be the last post until after the new year but who knows, check back next week just in case, I might have a surprise or two hehe.

Sculpey ATAT







Hey everyone, here is another fun evening project I just finished. Again, like the han solo and chewbacca diorama this piece is fairly small so the detail isn't all that great. Not to mention that this is only the third sculpting project I have ever done lol. Anyways hope you guys like the pics! If anyone is wondering this is an Imperial ATAT Walker, most famously known from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Enjoy! :D

Han Solo and Chewbacca Diorama











Hey everyone, here is a fun little diorama I made out of sculpey. The piece isn't very detailed because its relatively small, I made it only about two inches high. The background is the wall and floor section of the millenium falcon. The characters depicted are Han Solo and Chewbacca Hope you guys enjoy the pictures! :D

Rodian Sculpture Complete!
















Hey everyone, so here is my first attempt at sculpting! For a first attempt I don't think it turned out half bad! :D Most importantly I had a blast making it! Again this sculpture was created using super sculpey and then airbrushed and hand painted. The mane/mowhawk section is just toothpicks that I cut, inserted into the head and then airbrushed. The thing I do wish I had spent more time on is the stand. I hurriedly put that together in a few minutes so that I could harden the sculpey and it shows. I will keep that in mind for the next one! :D Hope everyone likes it and hopefully will start on my next one soon! I am going to try to tackle C3Po! :D Enjoy the pictures! :D

Rodian Sculpture Update
















Hey everyone, here is the final sculpted and baked Rodian head and its stand that I made. I used super sculpey to create it. It was done completely freehand, and no its not supposed to be Greedo lol, I actually used photos of him and pictures of rodians from the new clone wars series as inspiration so its just a nameless Rodian heh. It still needs the mane/mohawk portion which I made holes for before I baked the sculpey and then it will need some trimming up and sanding, then on to painting! The stand was just some random designs that I came up with, seemed to look "Star Warsey" to me, thought it turned out looking kinda cool, especially when im done painting it like I plan to. :D You have to bake sculpey by thickness and since the head is very thick and some of the extremities are not...obviously...lol, some of those extremities got a little overcooked. Really the only downside to that that I have found is that there is some discoloration, but since it's going to be painted that's not a problem. This was my first attempt at free hand sculpting, I think it turned out pretty good for a first attempt, can't wait to start on another! :D Hope you guys like the pictures! :D

Boushh Helmet Update











Hey everyone, here are some latest pics of my boushh helmet that I am working on! :D Used a new technique that I learned about off of Skip's Blog that's being called Rondo. It is an equal part mixture of resin and bondo, and as Skip informed me, since they are both polymer based their hardeners work for both. (aka resin hardener would work for the bondo and vise versa). The result is a much more liquidy and easier to apply bondo type material. The Rondo you see in these pictures was actually just poured over the helmet!!! The result in my opinion makes a much smoother, cleaner, and overall easier to work with product. Hope you guys like the pics! Sorry about the quality, I didn't have my digital camera so I had to use my cell phone, heh.

300 Spartan Helmet







Hey everyone, this is a helmet from the movie the 300 Spartans. This is Skips newest file, was an easy build, looks cool and fits perfect. :D I decided to make it out of styrene plastic instead of card stock which created a sturdier base. Not sure if I am going to bondo it or not yet, probably will eventually, hope you all like it. :D
