Just a quick update: finally finished sculpting the little turtles.
Took me awhile to finish sculpting the weapons; for some reason, sculpting weapons takes me the longest time for me.
Now it's onto mold making and casting.
My last attempt at mold making/casting didn't fare too well but I did a bit more research, so hopefully things will go better this time around. Wish me luck!
Tabletop wargaming, 28mm miniature figure collecting ,sculpting and painting, plastic model(Gundam) building and customization, et cetera, et cetera.

Back to sculpting - practicing with Ninja Turtles for Frostgrave?!
Back to sculpting - practicing with Ninja Turtles for Frostgrave?!
So the bad news for me is that I got laid off a few months ago; the good news is that I now have time to sculpt again :)
Anyways, I caught the Frostgrave bug that's been going around lately.
Frostgrave is a skirmish game released by Osprey Games with warbands led by their Wizards exploring a frozen ruins of an ancient city of eldritch wiizardry.

Sort of like Mordheim with lots of snow and less Chaos and grim-dark (and without the usual exclusive GW models only restriction).
So for my Frostband warband, I was planning on using the Skaven models I had gathered for Mordheim back in the days but never got around to using.
Having just watched the latest Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, I couldn't stop thinking about Splinter while looking at the Skaven mage model by Marauder Miniatures.
That got me on a strange track of thought that made me decide that I must have Ninja Were-Turtles led by a Were-Rat Wizard!
I'm going to sculpt the movie/cartoon/comic version of the Mutant Ninja Turtles first for fun and as practice to get back into sculpting again. I plan on doing my own Were-Turtle design for my actual Frostgrave warband once I'm done with these.
Currently sculpting weapons for these guys.
