1/6th Saesee Tiin

[Dorgmal Snow]

Happy new year ladies.. huummm sorry.
Well its good to back in the swing of things and already this year there has been some topchuffintasic stuff appearing already.
So I am join in with this wee chappie.

I was most fortunate enough to be given a truely wonderful parcel of gifts from Deathstalker the other day and amongst the goodies was a chuffin ace sculpt of Saesee Tiin.

Now you know I am an OT fan but spank me with a kipper I was most excited.

Now the original cast was good but I really want to have a bash at learning to sculpt so I made a resin plaster cast and worked in to it adding a few creases wrinkles and chopping down the hooter a bit.

So I slapped a spot of paint on and tada!!

Now it is nowhere nere finished this is just the beginning. I have only really done dios before fo the main focus on this was painting the eyes.

The nest Tiin I do I am going to really focus on the skin and nose, then I think I will rework the horn!! as they look a trifle to big.

I am loving having a break from the dios and trying to learn new skills.

Pretty sweet Mark. Is there anything you can't do? . There wouldn't be a Senate Duel shoot in your near future, would there? If there isn't...(in my best Picard voice) MAKE IT SO!

 

[the dude person]

looking good Dorgs.

Finish him up quick so we can use him! Remember, as soon as you have the head down pat, you can just throw a robe over him if needed (but it looks like you got most of the right clothes)

The head looks great to me

your head as is

vs.

a pic from the movie

the sculpt would look PERFECT if you dabbed some brown flecks around his cheeks and forehead... maybe dilute the paint so it's semi-transparent, that way it'll blend in with the pink skin pretty well to make that dark muddy reddish color...

Great looking sculpt! Do you know who the original sculptor was?

 

[katkuru]

OMG! It can sculpt now!

 

[hemble]

Damn you Mark you can cast now lol, wish I could do that. The casting looks great and looking forward to seeing what else you come up with.

Had a little play with the head sculpt.The original is three one in the really clean white one. I think the oginal is fab and who ever made is a chuffin genius. But I love to make stuff my own so I have worked into the casts I have made. The most resent is on the far right. I have tried to re-work the nose and mouth and added as many wrinkles and creases as I could.

At some stage I may well attempt to move the horns up the head a bit, but that is major surgery and I am more of a butcher than a sturgeon. Humm hang on .. a sturgeon's a fish, nurse! nurse! I need my pills!!

I like the revisions... adds a bit more of the ugliness of the character.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Want it to look more like this....

"spank me with a kipper I was most excited"

The sculpt is cool, but I think this line is currently the quote of the year for a very young 2010.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Kipper spanking time Flosi, come on you know you want it!!.

Thought I would splash a drop of paint on the Tiin heads and whip the macro lens out!! My word gals it shows every imperfection!!!

I know nothing about painting heads so I am making it up as I go along. When I first joined the forum in Dec last year I found a really good tutorial for painting heads with pics and everything but I am buggered if I can find it now!!

"This tutorial shows you step by step instructions of the paints and finishes Hemble used to create his Ki-Adi-Mundi"
OMG it's a tut by Hemble! Saw this a year ago before I knew who Hemble was, didn't pay it much attention...

His customs I find to be most excellent...
