Patron Commission September - Vancleef (WIP)
Added 2021-09-29 13:13:13 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
Sharing some WIP in what is about to come in October and my current progress on the Patron Commission September - Vancleef.
September 29 update: I have finished the Body Blockout for Edwin and Vanessa, Canon Blockout. The Basing is almost done. Still trying to decide which pose to choose for Vanessa, I am really tempted to go with the Ballet pose (To convey a more agile and graceful nature). I think some Barrels would look cool on the Base but... there is almost no space left, maybe a small gunpowder barrel in the front. Sizes: 60mm round base, Edwin and Vanessa 32mm scale (Her being slightly smaller) with 25.4mm base. The cannon will come unattached to the base so you can use/sell separately but, un-based.
September 30 update: Finished Vanessa Blockout. The hardest part was to make her shoulder... I don't think it will show on 32mm miniature but they are there, if anyone wishes for a little bigger model to paint, I think it will look cool. Going for Edwin Blockout now.
October 01 Update: Changed the thickness of cloths so that she looked less Chubby, Finished detailing Vanessa, and done the weapons. I will now be posing her and doing the final sculpting. Her hands will be ball joint socket compatible left and right, even though I imagine her ready to cast fan of knives, yours won't need to be.
October 02 Update: Finished Posing and adding final sculpt to Vanessa, in the end, I went for a different pose from one of the 3 planned, and even though my initial plans were to place throwing daggers on her right hand, after messing around with the model I will print mine like the gray one (reverse dagger in Right hand and throwing on the left). I will soon be adding her to Early access if you wish to print her before the whole set. Now let's do some noise (Canons).
October 06 Update: Finished Edwin miniature. Now I'm working on Advertising material to add to Instagram (The less favorite part of the work). They should be available soon (After my test print is ok).
That's it for today. I will upload more pictures in this post as I move forward. Tell me what you think in the comments below.
Best Regards,
Ivo

It will be the cutlass. Those are just place holders. But i guess i can make them alternatives.

2021-09-30 20:08:05 +0000 UTCIt does make sort of sense lol. The canon will be hollowed in 2 point's the bigger hole and the botton (where you will glue over the cart). The cart than be hollowed and you glue the canon over the holes. I think this might work. The canon is not that small but if you can save a tiny bit of material you could make let's say 3 canons for the price of two
2021-09-29 18:03:58 +0000 UTCawesome! I am personally not as concerned about hollowing a small piece, but I know some people are. You could save some by just making the "barrel" and "base" (I dont know the anatomy of a cannon, lol) separate parts, you could hollow out the "barrel" of the cannon and make the "base part" use less resin by having a 'H' sort of shape instead of being full at the top. Does that make sense? Probably not, I am not a sculptor :)

2021-09-29 17:58:42 +0000 UTCThey will be like that. What i don't know yet but I'm very tempted to do is split the canon and the wheels to make them hollow and save material
2021-09-29 17:52:39 +0000 UTCGreat start! Cant wait to see how it turns out. Can the cannon be a separate piece from the base so we can print them individually to use for things?

2021-09-29 17:50:25 +0000 UTCLovely idea for a plot... Let's put the town on the ground. Those blades are only temporary, grabbed those from Yari.
2021-09-29 14:01:06 +0000 UTCLove the work on the blades. An agile pose for Vanessa should be interesting. Excited to print out a whole bunch of cannons and go to town.
