Epoxy Clay skulls for miniature basing

Not much of a tutorial here and not much of a sculpt either. But I do want to share to you my first ( albeit lousy ) attempt on actually sculpting something for my miniatures. :)

I did this a couple of days ( nights ) ago when I did not have any Trollbloods figures to paint and I just finished my very first one ( Madrak Ironhide ). Nothing to do but was so itchy to do something for my future figures. I basically used a Pioneer Epoxy Putty to do these tiny little skulls. I think they mostly use the so called " Green Stuff " for sculpting in the world of miniatures and should buy one and use it in my future sculpts.

As expected my sculpting is lousy even for simple shapes like skulls... NO plans whatsoever of gluing these on precious little miniatures, but I think they are good enough for custom bases. I used to do and love dioramas for my Gunplas and doing small quick bases is soooo fun to do as well.

Anyways This was so easy and fun to do and I think once painted should work well on my future bases. Now here are a few more photos... Thanks for dropping by!

Quite sure they will come in handy down the road.

hehehe... used them already. Should get the so called " green stuff " soon bro and will try my hand on sculpting soon. :)

Just be careful when working with Green Stuff. It tends to be very sticky and you'll want to keep your fingers and tools wet when working with it. Games Workshop makes a liquid version that is great for filling in gaps.

@ Wild Chevy, and so I read... makes me think of using Tamiya epoxy putty OR Milliput instead. Thanks man! Will try it out soon though. :)
