Here's the arachnarok squig wip just first layer of putty and lips/eyebrows/eyes







I really like these guys here someone else sculpted somewhere along the line, and it was my inspiration








I plan on doing a similar picket style fence, as I have my chariots and pump wagon made of those. I need to figure out how many crew members on arach so can toss them up there. figure magnetize one in middle to remove for shaman if put him on it. Shaman would have a wooden throne maybe? Going to add a mushroom "umbrella" bent over the throne?

Figure have a few mushrooms growing off this thing... give it tiny legs to go with the tiny tail to make it more comical? still need to cover teeth and inside of mouth with putty and sculpt on more.

this is just the 1st layer, with eyes lips and eyebrows added.. i should of put something in shot for scale... I think its about 6" in diameter?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534275/5748078.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534275/5748078.page GMT Self Sculpted Gigantic Squig (count as arachnarok) http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534275/5748084.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534275/5748084.page GMT Self Sculpted Gigantic Squig (count as arachnarok)

Check pics in first post of this thread, see that white exposed part? thats like a 6 or 8" diameter styrofoam ball. set me back a few dollars at michaels. got some packages of other sizes as well, and half spheres to make a giant squig popping out of a cave... (dangerous terrain?) hehe.. squigs or non-squig-sphere monsters or whatever you want to call them, are a great projects to try to hone your skills.

probably used an entire box of yellow milliput on this guy. plus 1" of the white stuff, and 2" of another box of yellow.

i eventually cut the teeth out and used some plastic rod as filler for bigger teeth and just sculpted smaller teeth on without a armature/core or whatever.



Sorry if all my terminology is off, I don't really know what I'm doing.

thanks everybody for the positive feedback, I'm hoping to get it primed this weekend. going to have to make an army list just to use it hehe
