This month has been surprisingly crazy. I'm accomplishing much less than I originally thought I would. But, thankfully, we are still making progress. Starting us off this week comes another complex requested figure. Took me a good while to properly work out DC's God of War, but I think the time paid off in the end. I really wanted to add some wire holding up swords and axes around him, but maybe we'll do that for the next one.
I started out by sculpting up the gauntlets, then adding some sculpt to the torso. Wanted to give it a sectioned armor look, and then I had to work on the skirt piece. I was stuck for ages until I finally just tried something random. I attached pieces from other skirts as a base, then added sculpt all around it, cutting it properly. Wish I could have come up with a better approach to it, but that's rough in this build. At least for me. Sculpted up the shoulder pads next, then moved to the head. The extra delay worked out, though, since I finally managed to get my hands on an MU Ares figure. Cut the ponytail off, used some toothpicks for the spikes, then added some sculpt to fill in the head a bit. Full repaint and attached the cape, and done. A bit of a tedious labor, but he looks pretty good in the end. Recipe: Body - MU Hercules Lower Legs - MU Thor Head - MU Ares Cape - not sure Sword - Chap Mei line
