Looks like you have a great start to this project. Very nice muscle understructure.

Now you get to work your "magic" with all the fun texture and scale pattern. Should be a fantastic finished piece.

Cheers,

Jeff

Woops - looks like that dino-sculpt got in the way of all your guitar photos.

Very cool sculpt - is that some kind of maché or cellulose/paperclay-based material you're using?

Dang good job - look forward to updates or pics of more work.

I can't offer much in the way of technical crits. its looking very good so far. What will you be doing in the way of texturing? (or is it as textured as it will get?)

I am curious about the materials you are using to do the scultp. I would love to do some larger stuff but I am unsure about the material to use.

THANKS!

YES, THE PLAN IS TO GIVE IT THE TEXTURE.

IF SOMEBODY COULD HELP ME WITH THE THEROPOD TEXTURE, OR EVEN MORE THE T REX SKIN TEXTURE PICTURES, I WILL THANK A LOT


The material I am using its Epoxy (apoxy) clay. Its a good material, but you need to practice a lot with this, cause you only have about 1 1/2 Hours to work before it gets hard as stone.


Thanks

Roostercat - check out smellybug's posts. he has several dinos he has done and they always have awesome texture to them.

following up on materials, what do you build the armature/bulk up with?

Thanks again!

YUP; SMELLY is the personal hero of many, including me! He has great realistic and beautiful sculpts. I Love his work.

I used 1/4" Rectangular Steel Tubes for the armature.
