Sculpting




I have now finished my next few pirate figures for Parkfield Miniatures including a Colonial Island Governor and a ships cook.

These figures are a lot of fun for me to sculpt as there are very few uniform details to worry about. also I like to try to make some figures that can be used for other ranges, thus the Governor could also be used as a ranking officer for the Glorious Revolution range of figures, a lord of the manor with the smugglers or even a pirate captain himself.

One of the other figures is of a ships cook, complete with cleaver and bottle (for use in the cooking).

The figures are now released and can be seen at http://www.parkfieldminiatures.freeservers.com/

For the bases I decided to try something different to the norm and modelled the deck planks and the stone paving using milliput with a scalpel used to mark out the detail.

That's a mightily impressive sculpt, and outstanding painting too. Might have to buy one of these...

Good luck with your blog - always interesting to see what other gamers (or sculptors) are up to.

Best wishes

Giles
