Fleshy trophies for your evil basterd chaos space marines.

Mix Green Stuff with Milliput in a 1:1 ratio to get a nice pale green ball of putty.

Wet two plastic sheets on one side with water (and spit). Place the ball of putty in between the sheets and flatten it with a can.
EDIT: Hallowed Frater forte told me that using baking paper also prevents the putty from sticking. I tried it his way and it works just as well - with the benefit that the putty does does stick to the part you're using it on.

Take a metal sculpting tool and cut off shapes. Cut, pull, or tear it! - that's what the flayed skin is supposed to look like!

Place the flaps on the model using a wettened metal scultping tool. Lick your finger and use it to pick up a tiny glass micro bead. Place this micro bead in the positioned green stuff and press it in. Make several overlaps between different skin flaps. Then use a sharp sculpting tool to pick at the corners to mimic gravity pulling at it.

Then, lay out to dry. When dry, see if it stays in place after light tapping. If yes, basecoating will seal it firmly enough for handling during play. If not, glue it with superglue.

Hope this helps! If there are any things unclear, please let me know.

Just noticed you said I recommend "baking powder". Think you mean "baking paper" ;)

 

Also, I hugely recommend using silicone clay shapers. You don't need to lubricate them as they don't stick to the Kneadatite at all.

Thanks forte, I changed it. The silicone clay shaping tools are indeed great for handling the cut out fleshy trophy, but for the actual cutting and tearing I really recommend plain old metal sculpting tools.

Hey B'Raass, any chance of a painted finished example at the end of the first post. As I don't think people can see how good this tutorial can make vehicles and such.

(Though they should take a look at your blog for a full dose anyway)
