Ok, this is a couple of WIPs, (becasue i never finish any of my projects, i want to keep going as hard as i can with these. Any tips on how these are going and how to get better.
Ive been filing the undead spaceman guy, but i think if i used more of a brownstuff/greenstuff mix like Kev White it might file or sand better.
Also my hillbilly is coming along, but i need to work out how to keep going on him.
Redkneck Hillbilly, hes meant to be wearing loose jeans, and suspenders with a t shirt.

I know its basic, but this is my first real attempt at a serious sculpt. Also feel free to fling poo at me, since I tend to bash sculpts quite heavily!
I guess they really are quite crud*. Or no one actually comes on here anymore! :icon_wink:

Not at weekends, usually ;)
I quite like 'em :) What happened to the braces? Is he wearing them over or under his tee? I can't really figure out what is going on there, except that he is proportioned rather like me. I assume that is intentional?
Skeleton is looking better now he's got more of a spacesuit on and I can see what is happening with his knee.
Since I'm no batter at it than you I can't give any advice, but I would lose the handbag on the hillbilly.
The suspenders are over the tshirt. I just havent finished them on the back yet
Ala this pic.

Oh the hand dropping down will have some rope or a crowbar or something
Ah, OK. That makes a lot more sense. Looks like you're getting towards what you're trying to acheive, AM :)
I've had problems accesing the site for over a week now. The hillbilly looks smooth and well done from what I can see. The spaceman looks a bit overworked with all the filing and sanding. Once you put the next layer on I bet he'll look fine.
Latest update
Im rather happy how the face is coming on. His RHS (our left) looks better than the LHS. But you cant see it that clearly in these pics. Im not happy with the folds on the pants, and the shirt/ braces are scrud*py. Need to be cleaned and tidied. Going to look at scrubbing with fine steel wool to see if that makes a difference.

I see what you mean about the trousers, AM, but the rest of him seems to be coming along very nicely :) The expression on his face is particularly grumpy :) And the bald head looks pretty realistic, too :)
