Toppi update #4(Time for some boddy work)

Hello everyone, this is Yami.

Been busy with school this week, now we are return to regularly scheduled program.

Since the head is almost done(except few touch ups), now is time to move on to the body. The arms and legs are all been separated, and I will start from the main body then the feet then the arms and hand after. Here are the parts:



Let the fun begin!

Toppi update #3.0...(yes... is 3.0 now.....with update on the head <_<)

Hello my fellow readers, this is Yami.

Haven't really done much in the past few days (in my opinion...) so I can't really call this as an update (or maybe I should.... =P)

Got the ears close to finish the other day and reshaped the head a bit. Also added the nose at this point. still needs to be reshaped and stuff. Also, I decided to go with angry face!!! XD

(is not mickey mouse... is not mickey mouse...is not mickey mouse...is not mickey mouse...is not mickey mouse...is not mickey mouse...)

3.0 update, something just doesn't feel right, especially the eye part :



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Update on the head, pretty much done, only need to work on the head band now. Still not 100% happy with the result at this point, will come back later once the body is done =P.



That's it for now, really hope I can push myself over the weekend so that I can get the head done in time before getting piled up by school work =P.

Toppi update #2 (The head is starting to take its shape ^^)

Hello everyone, this is Yami.

After few hours of hard work today, now the head is finally starting to take is shape. I separated the ear from the head so that is easier when I try to create a mold when everything is finished. The nose needs to be add it, as well as the mouth and the eye.

The head is still not in the perfect shape yet, that will be done when most of the details are been added. Anyway, enough talking, here are the pictures:

Side:


Top view:



Parts:




Here are three choices of the face, still thinking over which one I would like to work on. (personally I prefer angry face, since that's stick to the concept art =P):
1. Angry face (as shown in the concept art)
2. Normal face (kinda boring in my opinion, but is a lot easier to work with)
3. Happy face (.............................)

any thoughts?

Toppi update #1 (Let's see how many updates is gonna take =P)

Hello, this is Yami.

Did some final drawing and got the basic size done today. Now the real work begins.


(Please forgive me for the horriable drawing on the face <_<)

Here is the side view:



Now the head is slightly over sized, and this time, I need to learn how to divide up the figure in to several parts otherwise it will have a tough time while casting =P.

That's it for now, stay tuned ^^!

Project #2: World Destruction Toppi

Hullo everyone, this is Yamisword.

Went to check out recasting materials today at art store, unfortunately unable to pick up the right materials that I'm looking for because is there just too many variety of supplies for me to choose.

Meanwhile, since most of the sculpting work is done for Mr.piggy, therefore since I won't be getting my recasting materials in a while, might as well start on my second project.

Toppi is a character from an anime called World Destruction, I found that this one has similar design as Mr.piggy, so might as well give a try =P.

So here is the concept art (I have to admit that I really need to improve my drawing skill):



And here is the scale drawing:


There are still few things I would like to add to the concept art, such as the side view of the body, the hand, and the shoes. The total height is about 11cm high.

That's it for now, stay tuned!

Vance Project Figure Starter Set

Hello ppl this is Yamisword, here is my first sculpting project, Vance Project Figure Starter Set 1:

click here

Here are the WIP pics:

First I should explain what comes with this starter set.



(pic stolen from hobbywave XD)

Mr.clay, a set of sand paper from 400 up to 1200, a guide book for starters, a craft knife, mr.instant glue, a hobby knife and two tools that used for sculpting (I have no idea how to call them, please for give me <_<)

Here is the design in book =P



By start things off, I made a basic shape of the body, with holes everywhere:



Then apply clay to fill in the holes, as well as the try to get the shape of the head:



Then here comes the nose:



Next we have the ears, along with some simple drawing of the face and stuff:



Then here comes the eyes:



However, the nose didn't turn out to the way I wanted while I was doing some sanding today, so I filled up, and added details to the body:



side view:




Here is the complete pic, managed to finish most of the sculpting work by last week, now I need to make a mold of this and cast it =D.







Please, don't hesitate to leave any criticisms and feedback, I'm looking forward to hear the ideas and suggestions from you experts out there!
