    1/250 USS St Louis ( CL-20 ) my first 3D printed model

    This is far from ideal but this was made entirely with 3D pen and smoothed with a soldering iron. John

    John's Godfather figure sculpt

    Gentlemen you are most kind. I like the iconic pose in this figure however the sculpting is always a disappointment when it doesn't live up to expectations. I struggled a lot with any sort of likeness and just about achieved vague ressemblance. He looks pretty good from the rear though. So here...

    John's Godfather figure sculpt

    Thanks again guys. Moving along his body is almost finished, just the shoes and the hands to finish off. And then there is the small issue of his head. I have realised that with my skill and eyesight I will never get a good likeness, so I am aiming for vague resemblance. Let's see what comes...

    John's Godfather figure sculpt

    Thanks for all the encouragement guys. Finally made some progress yesterday. The armature is about there. Spent a while making sure to get the pose right with his head slightly tilted and his shoulders and torso looking comfortable in the chair. Now we start the hard bits. I need to add...

    John's Godfather figure sculpt

    I must be getting dumber in my old age. It took me several hours to get an idea of the chair. Version 1 is a rough styrofoam jobbie, version 2 in stiff paper then finally version 3, in MDF, and a little bit undersized since it will be the version I use and will be covered in clay to represent...

    John's Godfather figure sculpt

    Like I said I am going to go for this in the movies and TV GB. I think I will go for about 150mm size, and sculpt in Apoxie Clay' So this will be the first job, from a little blender rendering. Off we go. John

    Dragons and Dragons

    I don't know what came over me. I just found myself painting this guy,..... ...and then before I knew it this guy turned up. This was a complete change for me. Normal service will be resumed shortly. John

    What's on the Bench 2023

    I have been busy working on a number of paintings this winter. This is what is currently on my bench easel. He is a member of the Sealed Knot re-enactors from a photo taken by my nephew. BTW for those of you who have difficulty painting faces, this is the range of colours that I use as...

    John's sculpt 1/6, Canadian Mounted Policeman.

    Thanks for all the support guys. He's now finished. If it can help anyone my basic flesh tone is made of Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna, White and a small touch of Pthalo blue (or any dark blue would work). I paint this over the whole face following the old pattern, Forehead a little more...

    John's sculpt 1/6, Canadian Mounted Policeman.

    I hope the little SBS will be of use one day. Meanwhile just about finished his uniform now. Done with Crafting acrylics, Jo Sonja acrylics, gold printers ink and acrylic ink. A little bit of tidying up to do, then on to the fun stuff. John

    Art

    Bravo for giving painting a try. I find it to be the perfect relaxation and very satisfying. No matter what your level or what medium you use. Here's a couple of mine: Oil on canvas Pen and ink with pastel white highlighting. Keep it up John

    John's sculpt 1/6, Canadian Mounted Policeman.

    Neil and Mick Much appreciated your kind comments. I started to paint his jacket and then I thought, lots of people have trouble painting red since it is a difficult colour to shade and highlight without using black or white to dull the colour. Now as you know colours have three primary...

    John's sculpt 1/6, Canadian Mounted Policeman.

    Thanks for all the comments guys. Well I think the major work is done. The hat is not glued on yet, but next on to priming etc. I wonder what colour to paint him...oh wait I think RED might work! John

    John's sculpt 1/6, Canadian Mounted Policeman.

    Thanks chaps all comments are very much appreciated. No husky I'm afraid. I worked on his hat. More complicated than it might look, I still think it might be a little big, but it matches my references. Also been working on the basic jacket and his head. Now reunited and ready for the...
