Thank you!

Give it a try
I had no idea of what I was doing when I first started this one.
Worst thing that could happen is you have to start over...

SunSetSphynx In reply to SameAsUsual [2012-10-06 13:38:01 +0000 UTC]

I wouldn't even know where to start, what did you use? How much did it cost to make? How did you even make it?

It's just fabulious! <3

Mainly Super Sculpey modeling clay over a metal wire support skeleton.
I spent quite a bit on materials, but with a 1 lb pack of clay you'll be able to make a LOT of figures this size.
I would recommend making them a bit bigger though, as it was hard to get the all the detail using clay on this one.

I'm happy you like it! ^^

This is pretty damned cool. Wish I had the know-how to craft something like this myself!

Thanks!

You can do it without the know-how
This was my first experience with sculpting clay, but then again it took quite a while to finish

I don't know alot about LEDs and I don't see a wire, so is there a way to replace the lights?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SameAsUsual In reply to MXCoriginal [2012-08-27 14:29:51 +0000 UTC]

There's a 9 volt battery in the base which can be replaced.
As for the LEDS, they are sealed within the sculpt.
But since LEDs are pretty long-lifed and not constantly lit it shouldn't be a problem.
