Im 34. And I didnt sculpt that.. its done with a product called Greenstuff. I contracted that out. It will be cast in lead free pewter and given to the winners in the different catagories. I paint miniatures like that one there.. its a very relaxing fun hobby. I also have a game system I made called G.U.TT.S.. Generic Universal TableTop System. TM.

For a minute there I thought you were the one sculpting them. They looked like wax figures too which only makes the job a 1,000 times harder.

man, thats sweet, i tried to do some warhammer 40k stuff (such as
aliens with big guns and lasers everywhere) with greenstuff, but i
found out that i suck at anything that has to do with..my hands ('cept
that...thing, that men and us boys..gah nevermind), like drawing
sculpting etc etc etc. even though i think im pretty creative, i just
cant get my thoughts out in the real life.

my brother is pretty good at doing that though, he once won a contest
for best painted warhammer model, and got some of his works shown in
the cityhall (dunno how the f**k he got permision, he just walked right
up to the mayor and asked :/).
Boo f**king Hoo

Unfortunately, I won't be moving to Seattle until september... :sad:

If you get a chance, you should check out the University of Washington campus. there is some great mapping inspiration there.
Some people are like slinkys...

They aren?t really good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one tumbles down the stairs.

My bro goes to U-dub. He is going to be a lawyer. What an asshole. :wink: Although I visit him every so often, I am on the eastern side of WA....in Spokane.

You guys should head up to Bellevue to check out Valves HQ!

edit: hey I slipped by the censors! :smile:
