Hello i love this design i wanted to ask if you sell these builds vlad is my favorite character from the whole warhammer verse and i would love to have this model
LOL! Your paper method reminds me of my citadel plastic glue "Ruby Tuesdays extra mayonaise method!" A while ago I ate at ruby tues, to my surprise they brought my condiments in little metal condiment serving cups. I thought to myself that citadel plastic glue would come out nice on the bottom of one if I brought it home. Sure enough it does. I turn them upside down, drop a dollop of glue on the bottom and use the pin that comes with the bottle to apply my glue. LOL! and since the cups a stainless steel, the excess plastic glue dries and is easily scrapped away for next time. Unfortunately I tried doing this with superglue and one. The superglue stuck and permanentely ruined one but luckily I got two.
did you ever finish the p3 for the bottom half? Thats the one I'm dying to see. Just started green stuffing and on a mission to make a Guardians of the Covenant army. But need to up my sculpture game before bringing anything to the table I would be comfortable playing with. Thank you for pt 1 and 2! Ive learned a lot from your technical explanations, like anchor point, points of origin, a few more tricks you've employed I that I wouldnt have learned from other videos. You should really keep em coming if time and life permits! Your teaching style is quite helpful and above the par of most tutorials I've seen. Youre not just "showing" us how, you are teaching us how. And for that I thank you!
You can also use the metal part of al old brush for these leave shapes. Just remove the brush hairs and shape it however you want it to. Additionally, you can easily make a stamp out of various materials (might be as easy to use green stuff for that, too) to quickly texture the leaves, saving you a ton of time ^^
Worth stating that epoxy is temperature sensative, So if you are working in a cold garage curing time will be longer and if you sit next to a space heater it will cure faster.
Great work ! The scale between First born and Primaris is not a problem ? The pauldrons and the swords do not seem "child toys" ? That is my fear . I want to do this exact project , but I think adding an edge to the pauldrons and using primaris weapons + greenstuff décorations will be my way Anyway, great work and thanks for the tips
Hey man! Your channel has such awesome work. You deserve so much more attention. So helpful and inspiring. Also, Im pretty new to the hobby and i was wondering what kind of oil you use to work with the milliput. Does it matter?
I know I'm a bit late to the party, but do you know what one should do to do this with milliput? That's currently what i have, but it feels really difficult to sculpt anything into without either completely oversculpting or ripping it. Is there some sort of targeted cure time where milliput gets a similar consistency to the green stuff here? Thanks in advance.
Short answer, no; milliput is always more rigid than green stuff. This is one of the things that makes it useful, since it's much easier to sand or get hard edges out of...but for cloth, the flexibility of green stuff is more adaptive. They're just fundamentally different tools.
Looks great! Luckily I do have every part you listed in my unused model inventory lol. Have to disagree with you saying the old sculpt is terrible though. It's of its time and is still pretty dynamic to my eyes. To each their own
This video was posted 2 years ago and it is still the best and easiest to follow guide I tried this for the first time while watching this and they look great thanks 👍
Your vids are like crack, can't get my fill. been 3 months but see that commissions are closed hence no vids =( RL taking over.. bummer.. mate love the inspiration. I'd love to get something done by you but postage from the US to Australia is CRAZY expensive =(
CA joke aside it is a skin irritant and with prolonged use without glove can cause you to develop a harsh reaction with contact. Also that's sensitive skin or not just depends on the person but that alone means folks should wear gloves when working with milliput. Not enough Hobby nerds mention this so this comment is mainly for folks reading through.
I tried doing exactly this the other day and the Green Stuff was getting stuck to anything that touched it, even with water and later with vasaline. Whether it was my finger or the tip of my hobby knife, it would get stuck, stretch, tear, and leave behind residue, kept messing everything up yet you can just nonchalantly cut away parts and move them.
I just wanted to thankyou for this tutorial as it helped gain confidence while working with green stuff and helped me complete my dream of a perfect conversion of Pedro Kantor from Firstborn to Primaris. Your channel is truly inspiring and i am always blown away when people sculpt things from the gorund up and make it look amazing. :D Thankyou so much.
