After the success of the seashell helmet, I thought I would try another variant. This one is a more classic helmet shape with a touch of the Octopus about it. I’m pleased these are working out as I wanted some of my Fomorians to have helmets. The wide, flat heads of the metal sculpts lend themselves well to having helmets put on them.
I also added some more coral growths to this fearsome warrior. I just wanted to blend those shoulder pieces into the overall look a bit better.
This guy has turned out to be a bit of a brute, he must be a champion or leader of some kind. The more coral added, the bigger he looks.
I also started to create some more plastic characters tonight. Another sheep skull mask was a must. They are definitely the most impressive of the skull heads and the most gruesome to look at.
Still practicing on doing tiny armour details.
I've been lurking and watching these come along for a while. I'm really enjoying seeing the process and how they are coming along. Keep at it! Your sculpting skills on the busy-ness of aquatic themed stuff is impressive.
ReplyDeleteI’m glad you’re enjoying it, I thought by now it might start getting a bit boring me just trying new stuff out with the Fomorians. I suppose as it’s been documented you can see the thought process unfolding.
ReplyDeleteThis is a startling array of individuality - just how big is this Fomorian Army going to be?
ReplyDeleteI don’t know really, I tend to get carried away a bit. I want at least four warbands of 24. This will make a good sized army and then onto that I will add the odd Sea monster (trolls). I plan to use the Oathmark rules for gaming the period. All of the types of creature correspond into similar warrior types. Orcs being Fomorians and Elves being the Sedhe.
