After completing a Subterranian type warrior I decide to attempt a female version. My original idea was to make her a scout with goggles and a radio backpack, but as I progressed........

More pics

All comments and suggestions welcome.

Hello Ken,

interesting subjects She goes well
What kind of material you used to make their eyes?

Looking nice so far Ken.

Steve

That is becoming a really nice fantasy bust.
Great work so far.

Marc

Interesting Ken, what's the material, polymer clay? She's probably better off as is, without the goggles that is. Looks very feminine.

Ray

The female of the species is definitely better looking

A wonderful fantasy bust.

Keepup the good work Ken.

Pedro, thanks for your comments Carls correct I used 3/16th ball bearing for the eyes which you can buy from your local cycle shop.

Steve, )
Marc, ) --- always appreciate your comments, many thanks.
Carl. )

Ray, thanks for comment, I,m using Super Sculpey Firm.

Tony, cheers mate, she's turning into quite a babe.

Nap, I like the idea of extending her torso, many thanks.

Will post some progress pics later today. Many thanks for checking in and all the comments.

Cheers Ken

Very interesting bust, Ken. . .

Hi Ken:

I really like where you're going with this one. And it is looking really great.
What would be the scale of this bust?

Jayhawk

Rick, glad you like her, she's about a 1/10th scale, from her chin to the start of the shell helmet is the same as one of your dimes.
Many thanks for your comments.

Cheers Ken

More Pics WIP

Built up her shoulders and added tentacles coming from under the Nautilus shelled helmet. Also added 2 different finishes to her shell helmet, not sure which is best.
Planning on extending her torso( thanks Kev) and adding something to her back, poss a cloak type thingy. Will post finished pics tomorrow I hope.

Many thanks for looking and again I welcome any and all comments.

Cheers Ken

Hello! Ken.
Great sculpting.
It's beautiful and interesting.
With what kind of pate is it being modeled?
I liked it very much.

Mitsutaka

Wow, very creative

Wow Ken:

I really really like where this young lady sculpt is going now. You really
have a vivid imagination. And that part of the creative process, where you
just let all the rules fall aside, can be so liberating. . . and altho not a
sculptor, I would think this would especially be the case for a sculptor.

All your latest ideas you mentioned with your latest round of images sound
really interesting to me. I do like the head piece, the added tenacles (ooops
I can't spell that woid, it seems ) and decorative collar and the linear
designs you've scribed into the putty. The cape idea seems like an element
that would add a lot of eye appeal as well.

This is fun. Like I'm being a creative sculptor, vicariously . . . well sort of

Mitsutaka, Many thanks for your comments, always appreciated. It's made from Super Sculpey Firm, a kind of clay you have to bake.

Kev, great suggestions, however when you say fish on her head, do you mean in a bowl. as far as scalely skin, I think it might spoil her I dunno.

Rick, great comments, this is my , I think 3rd fantasy type sculpt and compared to traditional military figures it is very liberating, not having to research the amount of buttons on a tunic between Jan 1862 and june 1863 etc etc ... is a dream.
Many thanks for looking.
Cheers KEN
3 more pics, sorry about the quality, but was trying to take close ups.

Finished at last

Well after trying different ting she's finally done... Gave her a bit more torso, a cloak and added a fishy/reptillian effect to her back and shoulders.
Many thanks for suggestions and comments , much appreciated.

Cheers Ken

Ken,
Beautiful piece of work!

Marcel.

Marcel, always appreciate your comments, many thanks.

Cheers Ken
