I did a bit of work on him so he looks a bit different to the other two toads which are the same sculpt.
Made the mouth a bit smaller, added GS to the face, cut off one foot and repositioned it slightly and added a different texture to his back and side.
Originally I was hoping to re sculpt the broken off horn but in the end dismissed the idea due to a lack of sculpting talent.
Instead I cut what was left off then dremeled the area out. I then used the spare horn from Scabby to give him a nice new big horn (the other toads will be jealous). Bit of GS finished it off.
After a paint job this is what he looks like.
Bit rushed, base will prob need a bit more work in the future but he's good enough for tabletop standard which is all I have ever aimed for. At the moment I just haven't got time or concentration for any more than that.
He's a sad looking toad :(
ReplyDeleteObviously he knows you loved the other toads more. . .
He's not sad. He just doesn't give in to peer pressure and conform to the mass delusion of smiling outwardly.
DeleteThese toads look great Rictus. I know you say it's a bit rushed, but I still think he looks ace!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
DeleteHey Man looking good, What type of bit are you using to "Dremel out" the hole, i have just got one and want to get on the right track?
ReplyDeleteI tend to use the engraving cutting tools to dremel out things like the Toads horn. Like this one:

It is worth having a range of sizes to hand.
