I'm actually envious of your freehand skill. Think I need to fight my freehand fear and just go for it. Those are really looking great. 

[daemonclaw]

thanx and i say go for it brother .i was unsure at first but its about keeping less paint on the brush as you can go over it afterward ,

if you use a wet pallet for it it will help considerably. its not that much different to your marble technique and you did an awesome job there sir

[Forté]

Cheers. I'll keep looking at yours for ideas too ;)

[daemonclaw]

Cheers. I'll keep looking at yours for ideas too

ah ha i am an idea yoinker too

i have been sidetracked of late trying to make my own slightly different style of legs to continue my troops down a more gothic route and after much messing about cutting up and repositioning GW legs i decided i had to go full greenstuff sculpt .

now bear in mind this was built up over a wire skeleton so the sizing mat be off but overall i am happy with them as it will help i think to address the overbalanced top heavy feel of chaos troops.the greenstuff looks different colours as i followed advice from this very forum about mixing in milliput to help sand out and get sharper edges

Impressive work, particularly the engraved detail.

[Urauloth]

I swear I posted about how great that helbrute is but I think the board ate my post. It's bloody brilliant, anyway.

 

Your freehand is definitely worthy of envy, too, and it adds a lot to the overall look of those minis. Love how bright the claw arms are, too.

[Trysanna]

Those legs are pretty impressive. I'd like to see a photo of them with a torso on 'em before I pass judgement on them, but so far so good!

[Skrundle87]

I'm loving the guy with the possessed arm, looks fantastic

[lamby]

The sculpting work on those legs is very nice, especially like the etch work.

 

Best advice for scale/sizing is get some calipers, and be as exacting as you can with measuring GW legs and matching sizes - unless you're looking to go bigger! Remember at this scale even half a mil can make a difference.

 

And that's why I'm so in awe of professional sculptors who work in the 28-35mm range...

 

Great work on the freehand too.

[daemonclaw]

thank you kind sir
