    Hello everybody. After I had finished my big orc I try to sculpt something smaller and so I try to make a dwarf. Until the eyes he is 75 mm high. So not a "little" dwarf, but a smaller one than my orc. He is a miner dwarf, so he had a candle on his helmet. The dwarf will be a combination out of the two drawings.

    Comments are always welcome, because I had to learn a lot

    Yes, that are two games workshop prints. But it is a one off. So no problem I think

    Thanks a lot all of you.

    @ Rick. I use MS and isopropanol alcohol to smooth it. I use my fingers or colour shaper like that http://www.dickblick.com/zz049/35/
    With one of the shapers or a wooden toothstick you can make the winkles and when you until the MS is nearly harden, you can soften it nearly without risk. And you have later the possibility to soften it with a knife.

    Very nice, Ulrich! Great character! The chain mail and shoulder epaulettes look great as does the candle on the hat. Cool.

    All the best,

    I have started today to put the pick-axe to the figure and find the right position.
