Maquette - Tumblr Posts

Some more photos of the underlying armature and how i built it up for the platybelodon sculpt. I think i will keep making basic skulls for my sculpts as it gives a rather natural look imo, also it satisfoes my need for playing with and kearning better anatomy👀 one tuak is deliberatley shorter than the other to portray use and wear from a life of fighting. I'm always fascinated by battle scarred bull elephants. If you want to see more pictures of tge finished sculpture, check out my previous post! #miniature #artistofinstagram #artistoninstagram #paleoartist #sculptor #art #artist #paleoart #platybelodon #sculpture #supersculpey #armature #maquette #toy #elephant #animalart #sciart #dinosaurart #poboscidea #toymaker #prehistoric #prehistoriccreature #gompothere #creaturedesigner #creaturedesign #fossilfriday https://www.instagram.com/p/BwJwcSHlafe/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=53ak37gp4w0b

Some progress shots from a newly done commission of a thylacoleo carnifex. Looks rather alien and bony doesn't it? Steelwire armature padded with tinfoil, bound by soft steel wire, basic skull and skeletal structure, and premade custom size eyes and very rudementary anatomy "filling". Finished product up on Firday 10th. . Been thinking about doing process videos/time-lapse videos of sculptures. Would you be interested? . Been a few hectic and exhausting weeks! I haven't shown much from the animation project I'm working on for ADHDNorge and Extrastiftelsen..don't know why? Will show some soon as my contract is nearing an end✌😢 On top of this I've been working more on my more seasonal job lately, so, very little time energy to do anything but!😪 #armatureworks #armature #art #artinprogress #wip #artistofinstagram #artist #paleoart #thylacoleo #thylacoleocarnifex #dropbear #marsupial #animalart #sculpture #sciart #fantasyart #creature #creaturedesign #paleoartist #creaturedesigner #dinosaurart #iceage #iceageanimal #maquette #supersculpey #sculpey #supersculpeyoriginal https://www.instagram.com/p/BxRCDPSlR28/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n0oznum5h44d

Thylacoleo carnifex enters the arena! Thylacoleo, commonly called the "marsupial lion" was the largest carniverous marsupial to have ever lived, and could reach about the same weight class as an African lion! Some of it's closest relatives are the kangaroos and wombats. It has a series of adaptations suggesting it stems from an arboreal ancesstor, and it may have evolved carnivory from a mostly herbivorous diet along its evolutionary tree. It actually doesn't have usable canine teeth like most carnivorous mammals do, instead it used its well developed incisors, possibly in combination with its meathook "thumb" claws to deliver a fatal bite to the neck or back of the skull of its prey. . Commission done for @caitlinmillerm I hope you enjoy! And do share if you're painting it or do something fun with him! If you are interested in a commission, contact me through DMs😊 (cannot promise i can do anything until August due to work, but we can talk and plan out the details) #miniature #artistofinstagram #artistoninstagram #paleoartist #sculptor #sculpture #supersculpy #paleoart #thylacoleo #thylacoleocarnifex #maquette #creatureart #creaturedesign #creaturedesigner #arksurvival #dinosaurart #iceage #iceageanimal #marsupial #marsupialion #commission #art #jurassicworld #jurassicpark #toymaker #prehistoricanimal https://www.instagram.com/p/BxTN-SAl6wr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ougp2n01xyi1

Hey guys, I’m sorry but I don’t have a piece ready for this week, and there’s no excuse for it besides laziness. I can think of lots of contributing factors, but none of them really amount to anything. I’ve been through some truly tough times and still managed to post on time. But for some reason, not this week. So here, have a consolation Gumby.

I was giving a speech on how to sculpt things and I needed an example that I could make quickly so this happened.Â
To make up for this, I’ll do my best to get an extra early post to you, so be on the lookout!






WIP of a sculpture of Quetzalcoatl I’m doing for a community project! Just needs some cleanup and paint now!









It’s finished!
