Not enough space for totty

If you make it an 'A' cup, you need less space.

How about a stylised grenade like the French grenadiers used to wear?

[barbarian]

Mix of Milliput and Green stuff ?

[Phobos]

Yep comrade. I use it for tricky shapes and bigger sizes.

[Phobos]

Wow, a lot of dust in this thread!

Well well, some pics now from the Ancient Spanish commanders that I made for a friend. All unfinished, of course.

And the elephant, with some little details added

[Techno]

Going VERY nicely P !! Good work.

Are these single models/conversions you are making for your friend ?
I only ask as the Chieftain would be a of a nightmare to press and cast with the two 'horns' on that plane, if he was after multiple castings.
Cheers - Phil.

[Phobos]

Thanks a lot Phil! They are single ones, the spanish army of my friend always had the lack of good officers and generals, so I started these as a way to practise more. And yes, the horns of the celtiberian would be a nightmare to cast.

Coming along a storm P.
(Sorry....I keep forgetting English is not your first language....."Coming along a storm" means you've done particularly well.)
Cheers - Phil.

[Phobos]

Thanks a lot Phil!

Some things, like proportions in arms are not 100% correct, I have to work more on that, but im quite happy with thos chaps... and coming soon, painted.

Agreed P.....The arms could do with a little work......They look a little on the thin side as they are at the moment.
At this scale, we need to 'cheat' and fool the eye by exaggerating certain aspects of the little figures.
BUT..... honestly, for the amount of time you've been doing this, you are progressing at a terrific rate....Keep it up !

Cheers - Phil. ( I look forward to seeing them painted. )

[Phobos]

I forget to upload pics of the spartan general I made for another friend (in fact, all my wargamers friends have generals made by me, but I keep using generic figures... )
