Description Here you are another statue! This one is inspired by a drawing of the great Adam Hughes.
I know it's not well proportionate , but I've always wanted to realize a statue of Lara
About the lack of handguns, they were so difficult to mould that I gave up to make them

Wow, you made this??? Incredible!!! I like to sculpt too. What type of material did you use? I make miniatures with Sculpey III and Primo. But I can't imagine you used polymer clay for this, it looks very sturdy and not plastic-like. Anyway, it looks really really good!!!!

Thank you very much for your nice comment!
You sculpt too? That sounds great! I'd really like to see your creations, if you don't mind! ^^

Well, for these statues I used clay: once it dried in the open air, the teacher of the course baked the statue at high temperatures in a particular oven. The final result was a red statue, which I coloured with simple acrylic colours!

È stata una delle parti più difficili da modellare : ho dovuto usare arnesi con punte piccolissime per dare una parvenza di volto Sono contenta che ti sia piaciuta: grazie di cuore! ^^

Ci credo! Il naso è venuto davvero perfetto *^* e penso sia una cosa difficilissima da modellare o.o comunque prego

Wouah beau travail !
Je suis impressionnée, ce n'est vraiment pas évident de faire de la sculpture. Tu es donc largement pardonnée de ne pas avoir fait ses armes.
Je trouve juste dommage que les mitaines soient si courtes (ça donne l'impression que ses mains sont petites et ses bras trop longs) et que sa chevelure manque de contraste. Mais ton travail est déjà superbe !

Merci beaucoup!
J'ai trouvé difficile si bien sculpter que peindre la statue: le manque de contraste est dû au couleur de l'argile qui devient rouge quand elle est cuite et en étant poreuse le resultat était toujours un couleur mate, même si je utilisais plusieurs couleurs

De rien.
Tu as peint avec de l'acrylique ?

nijuuhachi In reply to Lithana-Stia [2013-05-16 15:42:20 +0000 UTC]

J'ai utilisé soit les couleurs à la colle soit l'acrylique. J'ai appris ensuite que je devais peindre la statue avec des couleurs particuliers et qu'on la devait cuire une autre fois afin que ces couleurs se fixassent et ils donnassent un bon effet ^_^

Dear, you continue to amaze me! This looks like Hugh's artwork and if you had more, I'd offer to buy one!

For someone who is learning, you sure know how to make it look pretty professional. Put me around some clay or plaster, and it'll probably look like something made from play-dough.

Thank you very much for your nice words and your support!

Don't belittle yourself! The most important thing is trying even if the result couldn't be perfect!!
