"Mammoth" project
Just like the title says, this was a MAMMOTH project. It was my first Forgeworld piece, which was a bit like learning to juggle using chainsaws, hydrogen bombs and napalm. There are so many pictures for this piece, it will take at least 2 or 3 posts to get them all in. I even found some pictures of me using a power drill to screw this sucker into the wooden base. That was pretty insane, since the resin began to melt, and we could smell the smoke drifting around the room. Wonderful!
I had never done anything with resin before, so I didn't know that much about the "anomalies" in casting, and I underestimated how nasty the mould release would be.
Here are a variety of views showing the mammoth and the extra figures:
These shots give you a better view of the howdah:
These ladies ended up in the howdah also:
Now a few early WIP shots that gives you an idea of the process:
And the cherry on top!
