Hi Jim When i do a throwing (-pointing,-waving, etc) arm, I sculpt the upper torso first and finish it. Then I drill holes where the wire for the arms go and...
Sorry to butt in on this, but I've just started sculpting 10mm ancients too, and have a question - you superglue the arms, does this not cause a problem with...

Thanks for the info! Shame, really, as I've been careful to use nothing but GS and brass wire in my last few sculpts... Still, I suppose that means I'll have a...

Hi I use fuse wire. I buy it on a piece of card in the local hardware shop. It has three gauges per card 5/15/30 amp. 15 is good for the body and legs. Once...
... I would just like to say I love your late Romans and thanks for the help. I like the idea of the paper clip. What do you drill the hole with though? Jim...
Another nice sculpting competition: http://www.modelsculpt.org/chief2007/ Not too many 28mm entries as yet. Shall we do something about that. :) Bye, Ming-Hua...
Cheers! I use a small archimedes screw drill along with very thin drill bits from Mircobox. Got mine in a hobby shop, I imagine GW stores do them too? I...
I haven't finished reading the thread (boy, it's good one!) but I felt the need to interject on it none the less. As a software developer of 13+ years and a QA...
Check out this neat little machine on my blog: kraftcreation.blogspot.com I don't think it will ever put sculptors out of work, but it might be a tool...

I've cast with Griffin in the UK. The mold for about 15 28mm figures is about $70. Each spin was about $15, if I remember correctly. Not bad prices, but this...
