So, it has become time for me to show off my stuff. I recently downloaded a software that allows you to make anything you can dream of. Of course, I'll use it to create really awesome Chaos stuff! I'll try to post every day with WIPs and full sculpts. As a teaser, here is a headshot of a Cultist that has gone too far down the path... Thanks for looking, and C&C are welcome.

**Chowderhead**

Alright, I've added some shading and began to do the gradience on the eyes and mouth.

**Mordoskul**

I want to see the rest of this, please continue.

**Chowderhead**

Thank you for that, Mordoskul. I have re-done part of the head. There is a Chaos Star and multiple Khornate marking on his head now. I'll get some photos up tomorrow, as he is still a WIP.

Here is the stripped model, with the new scar done. I think it came out well, with an airbrush used to cover the red scar.

**Chowderhead**

So, I'm back. I started from scratch, and I do say, it looks much better now. I'll update once a day, to get me motivated to finish this... Thing. I think it will be a cultist, but I'm leaning towards plague marine.

You seem to have jumped into the deep end attempting faces straight up... You're improving it seems so good luck, will check back for more.

Thanks!

I made the bulge cover the eye, and made the other eye hollow. I'll post pictures later.

Cool stuff here! Chaos isn't hugely my thing, but I'm very interested in digital sculpting and whatnot. What program are you using?

Mudbox 2011 from Autodesk.

I decided to go with a darker version of the cultist, and give him a BDSM feel. The eye has been replaced with an open bone wound, a choice I really like.

Anyway, as always, C&C are appreciated.

I like the eye socket, is very well crafted. I perhaps would start work on the mouth/nose, they currently look a teensy bit amorphous. Oh and congrats you have created a digital friend for valentines day, even tho his mouth is sewn up he looks like a good kisser.
