British Columbia, a few miles from the border.

I sculpt in 2 scales somewhere between 1/6th and 1/4th. Prefer historical, sword and sorcery, and old movie subjects (doing Hammer Films actors at the moment).

Welcome.

I do like some larger pieces to eork on now and again, I know there's a few guys and girls here who do them too.

I do hope you enjoy being a part of this merry gang of putty pushers and brush daubers.

Thanks for the welcomes!

Kel, your chosen scale is damn big! .... I know 'British Columbia', is big. .... But good grief how big do figures have to be, before its filled..

Anyway welcome to 'Bedlam'. ..

Regards.

Welcome to Planet Figure!

Welcome to the board

I am surprised there are people who do lifesize figures--I would never have the room for them. I was doing computer graphics for a number of years--I didnt like sculpting figures by computer though--thus after a while I wanted to get back to real clay. However, I am impressed with the methods of making 3d printed figures in small sale-from the little I have seen of them (I notice the "digis" forum) they can make for miniature figures that are proportionally accurate. The smallest figure I ever carved was somewhere between 1/48 and 1/35 scale I think.

Hi Kel E,

I like the large scale (1/6th scale) military busts and figures produced by Naked Army. Due to declining eye sight, the larger scale figures and busts are becoming more attractive to me.

I am most comfortable with 1/6th scale--however I forced myself to do some in a larger scale just to shake up my skills. I think I am beginning to have eyesight trouble myself!

Hi Kel,

Welcome aboard. You will enjoy this forum.

Not only is your province a beautiful place with wonderfully friendly people, your red wines from the Okanagan Valley are outstanding. Shame we can't get them here in Oz.

Cheers
Chris

Glad to have you Kel E !

Looking forward to seeing some of your work!
