A shorter update this time, hopefully leading to a longer on next time, mainly because I changed my mind a little about the appearance, so havent moved on to detail yet.
Basically I decided more tentacles were in order, hence more armatures -
More sausages
And more wrapping of armatures in GS. these steps were done in exactly the same was as yesterday, make a sausage, attach at one end, wrap. follow this with a little sculpting and finessing and leave it to cure.
I also added a tentacle to his other arm, but without an armature as it was too thin.
I have to force myself to leave things to cure or else theres an awful mess. I'm right now attempting to speed up the curing with a desk lamp. I know peoaple who have made "ovens" out of desk lamps, and others who use hair dryers; this isn't to be encouraged as all the methods described can result in meting and or scortching, and if left unattended can be a fire hazard.
So here he is all covered in new GS.
With luck it will be later today that I can advance the guy with some chain and a little detail. I'm also going to try using brown stuff for the very first time, for something simple.
That's and outstanding looking daemon host, so far! Can't wait to see him finished.
