What program are you using to do these?

zBrush. I intend to learn Blender as well eventually, but I keep putting that off...

[Freddy]

I like them!

Great work on those Space Opera characters, hopefully there will be a Wilma Deering amongst them eventually. Good to see what you have been sculpting alongside the supers.

I like them!

Thanks very much.

Thank you Rob.  I imagine she will end up in here somewhere, but probably mashed-up with another character.

Hey there,
I remember your great work on Warzone/Siege of Citadel minis and here is even more cool stuff. Big Critter is the best.

Thank you Manu.  I would love to see your paintwork on the big guy some day. 

Even though I am no fan of NMM, I really love all of your Mutant Chronicles paintjobs.  You are one of the best miniature painters I have ever seen.

Prints pictures finally...







The Grey Knight is bare resin.  The others have a light white primer that doesn't look as bad in real life as it does in these pictures.

Thanks for stopping by.

Very nice!

Thank you very much.

I like the design that I settled on for the Grey Knight, but something about it was still off in my opinion.  I saw some printed Space Marines on Instagram and then I knew what was bothering me: the design is not hefty enough.  So, I made some parts thicker.

Original


Changed


Side by side comparison.


These were given a grey primer and a was of AP Strong Tone to show the details.  I am much happier with the changed figure.  It seems to have a better sense of weight or solidity than before.

Small update, but I thought some might be interested.  Thanks all for stopping by.

I added some GW accessories to the adjusted figure and painted it.  Here is the result:

Shoulder Pads, Backpack and its decoration, Book, Knife, Keys, and Grenades are all GW bits.  I need to adjust all the accessories that I sculpted to fit the new size, but I wanted to see a finished (sort of) product.  I say sort of because I want to do another highlight pass and add some tufts to the base.

Here is a comparison with the older sculpt:


Here a comparison with the original sculpt:

Everything on the original sculpt is my work.

Here is a shot with all 3:


That's all for now.  Thanks for stopping by.

Like a good many folks, I was unsatisfied with the new Inquisitor Coteaz figure, and decided to make my own.



Test printing now.  I will work on the cyber eagle and some acolytes at some point.

Thanks for stopping by.

Coteaz printed:





I have another pint of him that is about 5% smaller. I think he looks good next to the Enforcer but too big next to the Cadian.

Ramiela and Kroosh PIP:



Fairly happy with the progress here so far.

Thanks for stopping by.

The Baroness figure has come out really nicely.

[anevilgiraffe]

Kroosh is fantasic, will he be available anywhere? in 28mm?

Thanks Rob.

Sure, why not?  Space Critter

Keep in mind I am no supports expert but I haven't had any issues with test prints.  Also, I am a one person operation so I can't make everything super cheap.  Hopefully $5 US isn't too much to ask for him. 

If you do get a copy, please share when you paint it.
