Title: First attempt at sculpting, need some help with the beard!
Post by: Scarab on May 24, 2012, 11:02:31 AM
Today I found some cheap Sculpey III while searching for blind bags and I bought three small packs. Didn't really know what to expect because I've never really worked with clay before. Turns out that I really enjoy sculpting and this is the most fun I've had since I started doing customs.  :biggrin:

This is what I've done so far, but I want to add a long-ish goatee. How do you people sculpt longer beards? Do you use wire or just sculpt it on as it is? Pics of your sculpted beards would be appreciated.  :)

depending on how small it is id try to use like small bits of foil, sculpting directly onto wire has always been hard for me xD. also i really want this custom ROFL it looks awesome so far

Why didn't I think of foil earlier? Could have saved me a lot of time with the horns. :lol: Will try it out and see how it goes. Aww, glad you like him! ^.^
