Title: The Warlord Frods Pulp project
Post by: warlord frod on 26 February 2017, 04:42:02 AM

I want to start posting my work so you can see how my pulp project is going to develop. I am working on various types of pulp ideas. Classic Pulp figures (Doc Savage, The Shadow etc) Pulp settings Chaos in Ciaro, Gangsters, Mountain adventures etc I have been painting my figs for the past couple of months and have begus to build things which I want to share here. Let me know what you think.

First up I spent the last week building a Sub for a Dino hunting adventure (See post a picture of the last game you played) While it still needs detailing I thought I would share the process

Step one Foam for the build

Next I want to add more detail to make it look more interesting (Rivets and Railings  :?) I will eventually post a picture of the completed project

Nautilus-iriffic! But how did you get such nice curves on the foam?

I rough cut it with my foam cutter and then sanded it with a sponge sanding block (tool for smoothing out dry wall joints) it took a while and it is not perfect but it worked.
