Sculpting a Teddy


Minky

Recommended Posts

Hey guys I'm currently working on my own version of the malifaux teddy for my dreamer army. I'm planning on casting them in resin but I want to see what you think of the sculpt before I bake it and start casting. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. The one that i am currently working on is the one on the right. I gave it a simple pose for ease of casting. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

I do like the grumpy gus, but I think it is too close to the original which I think should have a more dynamic pose.

So my vote goes for the one on the left. I really like it. My only advice on it would be to put some pads on his palms instead of the hairy...well....you know....I took care of myself one too many times look.

Thanks for the compliments guys. The problem with the one on the left is I would have trouble casting it myself. I am not experienced with casting and have never done a two part mold before so the simpler the pose the better. So I'm definitely going to cast the one on the right. Any more input would be awesome. Thanks everyone.

2 part isn't a ton more difficult than flat back casting. You could probably get away with removing the right arm and the head as separate pieces and casting the rest of the body/left arm/leg in one mould.

There are some great tutorials around the internets (and videos on youtube) if you're keen to give it a go.
