I was able to sculpt this chap up yesterday, based on a piece of art from my rule system Planet 28.
He's exactly 30mm from top to bottom - I envision him as a power armored mercenary/breacher.
It may be a little while before he sees silicone, But he and others should be in production in the near future.

I like him. Probably not what you intend but with a bit of conversion and a weapon swap I see a wonderful Labyrinth Goblin in there!
-
I couldn't resist casting up a personal copy of the sculpt for myself so i bused out the hotmelt rubber and got to work - A very rough cast that needed alot of fixing BUt i got a paintable mini out of it to show off. Gave him a quick and simple paintjob over breakfast this morning.
So here is breacher mercenary "ned" in his K3ll-I armour.

I spent a couple of hours sculpting this little chap today - He's very obviously inspired by the latest piece of artwork put out by the warhammer community team, showing off some new alien species.
I figured he'd make a cool mini and a fun little challenge, So i set to it. Overall he took about 2 and a half hours, which is pretty damn fast for me. (the joys of alien anatomy, you can cut alot of corners.)
I think he came out quite well and he might see a mould soon.

That's pretty cool! There's a real shortage of interesting, non-humanoid aliens out there. I feel you've done a good job of sculpting to the art without being a direct copy.
-
That looks super-cool. Quick work on that too.
-
Very cool and creepy.
-
Really nice! Nice to see something that looks truly alien :)
-
Watching with interest

The fourth sculpt in the range - A gun-slinging one eyed mutant. who needs depth perception when you've got a brace of pistols?!
Really happy with his this chap turned out - He's built over a 1:1:1 skeleton of sculpey/fimo/beesputty which made an excellent hard base to add greenstuff onto. that may be my go to method from now on.
I'm aiming to kickstart a run of 5 sculpts around july.

Very happy with how he turned out, He really matched the artwork from the rulebook!

Some very nice work!

I'd be interested in buying some of these if their up for sale

Nice. Love the mutant and the alien. I guess the mutant is named Frank?

I like him reminds me of a futuristic ned Kelly?

That's the plan - possibly in the next two months if all goes well :)

Or Danny. :D

I also finished this chap a little while ago - he's a bit moebius, A sort of travelling psychic.
I'm probably going to resculpt his face.
-
Love these - particularly like Ned.
-
Yup, like them all. Particularly the bulbous headed alien.

I put the first 4 sculpts into RTV moulds and got some casts knocked up yesterday - they need some chasing but these are the metal masters that will go towards making a production mould.
(https://i.imgur.com/vWkHuEC.jpg)
I'm gonna head back to the studio over the next couple of days and knock out a few more to get some painted test models ready, And finish the fifth sculpt of what will hopefully be a 5 sculpt mini range.

Definitely looking forward to seeing "Ked Nelly" for sale

That's right, I painted one of my own casts!
I actually cast dozens of this chap and then melted them back down since I wasn't happy with the quality I was getting. In retrospect I may have been too hasty because now 6 months later he's painted and i think he looks quite good. but i have a terminal fear of selling a product I wouldn't be happy with so it's back into the moulding chamber for the master.
in the mean time here's frank the one eyed mutant gunslinger, fresh from the paint table and ready to blow holes in whatever he can see.

I'm pretty happy with him, he only has a quick paintjob but he's come out quite well.

Weird and awesome in equal measure. 8)

Did these ever go up for sale? I'm still interested in purchasing a few.

He didn't - The moulds worked but I wasn't happy with the quality. they got bundled up during a move and now they're in my studio awaiting new moulds.

Damn, well let uss know when they're ready, I'm more then happy to wait.

Another mess around with casting - Pressure cast resin, with the aim of producing more stuff.

These ones will be up for sale once kickstarter stuff is sent out next month hopefully.

The first wave of sculpts are now avaliable at https://mammoth-miniatures.onlineweb.shop/
I've released the mobius looking chap, the pilgrim, the mutant and the half dwarf. I've got more coming soon :)

Right now - with more coming soon ::

I got a couple of things sculpted over the weekend - A new scribe to add to my sci fi civilians and a big heavy one eyed mutant with a massive gun.
I got the moulds made up the next morning, did some casting that afternoon and got the mutant painted in the evening.
He's my favourite of my own minis so far.
I've put him into my existing mutant warband of converted GW minis.

More cool figures, and a very nice paint job on the mutant. Once they're on your webstore, I can forsee me succumbing to temptation.

Cheers :) I think they'll be up in the next week or so, Once I've cleaned up the studio and get the last of the kickstarter stuff sent out. :)
-
Big chap is up on the webstore with a few other sculpts.
-
Cast up some new sculpts for the website - a scribe, merchant, and space explorer.
Pretty chuffed with them, I think they could form a good little warband all on their own :)
