Here you are the second crossbowman (woman, in this case) for my dwarf treasure hunter band. I wanna upload images of the progress, because some people is asking about skulpting and I think the easier way to find out how to do it is step by step.

In this case I just did the basis of the body and placed the eyes. The next step will be to continue with the face and start with the clothes as far as I can.

Will definitely be keeping my eyes on this. Can I ask did you begin with a wire frame or is it just greenstuff ?

Did you use an armature, or did you piece that together entirely out of rolls of green stuff?

Looking forward to seeing this develop.

More advances. As you can see, most of the work was to finish the face. Now, when I have the crossbow ready, I will be able to place it and start with the arms and braids.

The way I do the face is ismple: Skull, then eyes, then cheeks, upper lips and front... And then I start with the nose, doing a simple base to start to sculp later. At the end it's just to work in the expression.

P.S. It can't be seen with the helmet, but I made her blinking her right eye.

Awesome! Are you going to make a mold and cast copies or just paint the green sculpture and play with it?

Thank you very much for this extensive explanations! It's highly interesting to watch a few blobs of green stuff to turn into a nicely detailed miniature

Very nice. Keep going as I really need enough of these for a full Mordheim warband. So, 13 figures minimum.

At the end I advanced too much, but here you are some more photos of the progress, before finishing the figure.
