Tonight we have a basing variety pack for you. The one thing they all have in common, of course, is that they were all made from Sculpey.
A few of these were created by carving texture in the baked clay, while the rocky base was done by pressing actual rocks into the unbaked clay.
I am still finding so many ways to work with sculpey on the bases. Sometimes I am using press moulds like those from Happy Seppuku, or I am making my own textures.
Making the bases is very fun, but so is painting them!
My love of basing is the reason why there are a dozen basing videos in the Painting Pyramid series.
Lovely. Did you sculpt the face yourself or did you press-mould it from another source?
ReplyDeleteAddendum: I made a somewhat similar piece once by sawing the head off a Star Wars Pez dispenser. It didn't come out looking as good as yours, but surprisingly to me, it didn't suck either :)
DeleteThanks! I believe that piece was a press mould of a small bit of terrain...
DeleteI Love Your base. Beautiful works with the mood and atmosphere. Very important (and at some artists and modelers marginalized occasionally) part of the work. Great Job!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for the kind words!
