I think most people use some fine real chain for chain... (or did you mean chainmail?)

I have to keep peeling them off and starting again.

Are you trying to sculpt chain, or are you using actual chain, as in the fellow above?

Ewan wrote:On the plus side - I have just ordered some stuff from Andy @ Heresy. At last, a variety of sculpting tools - The GW one has been good so far but it is limited where it can reach (hence the invisible left hand he has at the moment.. ) So hopefully, I can develop the details a little more now.

Good idea! The Heresy Sculptin tools are so much better than the GW one. There is one tool in particular that I think is amazing. If you've been getting these results with a GW tool, imaging what even more amamzing stuff you'll do with the Heresy tools!

Yeah, am trying to sculpt chain(s) - I think I've got the knack of it now but it is pretty difficult. Updates soon

Remember, if the pro's are using "chain" chain, you can too.

No use trying to reinvent the wheel.

Yeah I know mate but it just "looks" better...

Yeah, I was admiring that fig. Hey, if you can pull it off, go for it! And I have every confidence that you can.

I'm not totally happy with the chains but if I keep going over them I will be there forever!

They look ok though. Hopefully it will be finished by this weekend (monday at the latest)

As always, please give comments as it is good to get opinions on where I am going wrong - It feels like I "can't see the wood for the trees" type thing. If you have any tips or advice - It is very welcomed!

Normally I can nit-pick anything to death, but I can't think of anything to point out. The best I've got is that his fur looks slightly off under his right kneecap. That's so petty you should cast one up early and send it to me

Damn it man, it just keeps getting better and better. The chains turned out amazingly well! Don't be too self critical.

Dude. Seriously amazing. You have a natural talent for sculpting minis and you should pursue it to the utmost!
