I'm quite disgusted to find that within seconds of this article being uploaded, someone had voted for it dropping its rating down to 7/10 !
It was physically impossible for anyone to thoroughly read the article and make their mind up on its worth !

From my point of view, the negatives are that the Knee's look like they are in completley the wrong position and the feet are too small, however...

I can not sculpt to save my life and everything you do just gets better and better !!!
Sculpting is a gift ... and you certainly have a gift !

To the person who voted so quickly...SHAME ON YOU !!!

Personally I think this article is pretty damn good, I can't sculpt to save my life and I have seen you progress as a sculptor for a good while now and I have even had the pleasure of painting some of your earlier sculpts. I admire anyone that can turn green stuff and other sculpting compounds into anything other than a blob which is about all I can manage.
I will most definately be giving your tutorial a go thanks for sharing with us what is for me and quite possibly many others a black art.
Great article 10 out of 10.

To those who vote low for no reason other than you can you really ought to grow up.

Your miniatures are improving everytime! I wish I had the tallent!

The proportions are not totally there yet, and Brian said, but they are improving.

Keep up with the good work! ;)

Mminiatures, I remember seeing one of your first works, Vlad the Impaler, and thought you did a nice job on him, but each and every model since then has gotten better and better. A budding Ebob in the making!

Great job on the article and keep going man! :D

ohhh, I think this article is great!

I just love it how much thoughts and ideas arise when only seeing a simply slight bent paper clip. (different figures, poses, clothes, styles, centuries, history, legends, realms, a small world already surrounding this otherwise meant-for-the-bin piece.
I think you describe those ideas greatly especially in the paragraph 'Posing the armature'!

it's pretty amazing so see that with a piece of wire and a lump of green stuff that wonderful little mini gets created.
all is very well described and shown!

(if I only dared to start a sculpt myself. I need one swordcase to be sculpted (threw away the other two months ago when I forgot that it dried painted on an old newspaper...;-) and am still hesitating... Not to think of a whole figure!

But I am looking forward to more of yours! :-)

btw: I know it's hard to tell, similar about painting time, but how long do you estimate has it taken you to do this mini?

wow that is amazing. I have tried to sculpt a figure and it could pass as a 6-year old's deformed featureless (except a mouth and eye sockets) Ghost. With crudely shaped feet and hair that has melted into the body. I think I need some decent sculpting tools (made it with hands :()
